I went to Larry Johnson when my Ford Explorer had a check engine light come on. He hooked my car up to the diagnostic machine and got a reading that was either nothing or I needed a part replaced. The only way to tell was to turn off the check engine light and see if it came back on. Larry sent me on my way within 10 minutes with no charge. I was shocked, as most mechanics charge for a diagnostic, especially without additional service. He told me that he doesn't need to scam anyone, because the fact is cars need repair. He'd rather be honest and keep people coming back and spreading the word rather than make a few extra bucks doing bogus repairs. The check engine light did come back on, and he replaced the part at a very fair price (much less than I expected). My fiance' has also brought his truck to Larry and received the same service. He also had a check engine light, which turned out to be nothing, and Larry turned it off for him and sent him on his way. I have referred other friends to Larry, and they have all received the same honest and affordable service.
