Fast at his work. Highly recommend. He won't lie and is an honest man. One of the workers broke a fish I had hanging around my mirror but I can deal with that because Jay gave me a discount on a very expensive job.

I went on and on describing all of the symptoms my truck was showing. He assured me that he'd check it all out and run the proper diagnostics meanwhile wrote "runs bad" on his notes. Why over complicate it? Love it! Boom! Next day runs like a new truck. Thanks Jay Baker! You have my business.

Best shop in town /the state for that matter I have trusted Jay with my vehicles for at least 15 years and never not once been disappointed very fair pricing 10/10 repair work ! I would drive from out of state to bring my vehicle here !!! Very honest people they won't just work on a car that's not worth working on without prior consultation ❤️

Dad took his car there and tried to have some work done and was told that it wasn't covered by the warranty and that no other shop would do it as well so paid out of pocket just to be informed by the warranty company that it was supposed to have been covered and the car was in worse shape than before due to a wire that they had broke loose from the connector in which caused the throttle body to go out in which cost another 300 on top of the 600 to have it fixed the first time

Good service with my car repairs

I'm not sure what has happened to this place. I came back after having a good experience getting my A/C repaired, but my last trip left much to be desired. I had several things on my list to get done and they accomplished 1 out of 4. The things that angers me most is finding out after the fact that they left lug nuts off my wheels and they didn't repair my battery terminal issue, which was the main reason I came to them. After seeing scant mention of them fixing the battery terminal issue in the paperwork, I asked them to confirm that they fixed it, and they replied in the affirmative. All this after keeping my car for THREE DAYS?! Nah, man. Unacceptable. I would spend my time and money elsewhere.

Very knowledgable staff, very polite and helpful. Honest with the condition of my vehicle and what was needed to get it done. Would recommend this garage to anyone!! Definitely worth driving across town to bring your vehicle here.

Best mechanic shop in Louisville, hands down a little pricey, but you get what you pay for.

Best people around you will not be disappointed. I would recommend anyone take the car here for honest, fair and polite service. Can’t beat it.

Dishonest place. Came here about a year ago. My car’s brakes were a bit squeaky in the mornings. They tried to gyp me out of $500 because they said I needed new brakes. I took my car to Brakes 4 Less on Preston Highway and they said I didn’t need new brakes at all, that the squeaky noise in the mornings was just moisture on the brakes from sitting all night.

Do you ever get concerned when your car/truck needs a repair and you aren't sure if you can trust the auto repair shop? I know that is me b/c I know just enough about cars to be skeptical. The great news is you can put those concerns away when you take your car/truck to Jay Barker's Auto Repair. This is a family run father & son business who will be honest and fair with you and treat you right!! In other words, this isn't some franchise shop that's just trying to make a buck. This family has been in business since 1977 and are a foundation of the south Louisville community. I took my 2005 Tahoe in b/c my starter has been acting up so Brian ran some tests on it, then called me and said the test results says it's working fine but also identified this is the original starter from 2005 so I know it's only a matter of time and I travel long distances so I don't need it going out on the road. Brian replaced it and I had my truck back that afternoon and it's running great and the starter issue is gone. I will be back and I highly recommend you check these guys out for your automotive needs. You can trust them.

I truly appreciate Jay Barker and his employees at Jay Barker's Auto Repair in Louisville. He is very honest and saved me over $500 that another garage was going to charge me for an unnecessary repair. I recommend Jay highly and will not go anywhere else because I trust him to give great service with integrity and fairness.

I would not recommend this place. Prices are way too high. They charged $130 just to find the problem in my vehicle without fixing anything.
