Michael Johnson's Auto Center

Mike is great and always outstanding work. I have been going there for probably over 10 years. Wouldn’t go anywhere else.

In a world where trustworthy mechanics are hard to find, consider Michael Johnson's Auto Center your safe haven for all auto repair needs! I have been bringing my vehicles here for various repairs, inspections, and even issues as vague as, "my car's making a funny sound..." and the team at Michael Johnson's Auto Center have always taken excellent care of me and my vehicles.

Called to get estimate on full synthetic oil change and front brakes and rotors. Gentleman on the phone was going to call back and let me know. Never heard back- figured he got busy so I called 3 days later to follow up. Woman answered and said "how would I know what to price you if your car isn't here?" Said she can't give an estimate - told her make model year etc... she said no you have to have your car seen here we wouldn't know how to estimate that. Difficult to deal with woman- never got estimate and not offered an appointment.

Everything about this place is absolutely fantastic. All of the mechanics (as well as the receptionist) are all very personable and kind. You will NEVER get ripped off or screwed over with these guys. They also supply honest, fair, and quality work, and their consultations are also very helpful. I was even able to bring in a car I was thinking about buying, and they looked over it free of charge. I cannot recommend these guys enough!

This is my favorite auto mechanic in our area. Michael is a super ethical and competent mechanic that has a nice way of telling you what needs repaired or serviced. They go out of their way to serve their customers. One time, they even had someone give me a lift home and picked me back up because the repair was going to take a long time and they didn't want me to have to sit there. Now that's service! I have an older car so I am always worried when I take it in for the annual inspection. Michael and his team never rip you off by making up repairs or anything even on an older car which I totally appreciate. They have done both major (replaced my AC system) and minor (old change, tire rotation and inspections) work for me and I could not recommend them any more. My only gripe is their driveway which sometimes gets deep ruts in it that's hard on our other car which sits low to the ground. They do try to keep up with it to make it smoother but it's difficult since it's just gravel. Minor gripe for such a great place.

I was having issues with my A/C in my Toyota Corolla last year. Long story short, they were quick in diagnosing the issue and they did not charge any crazy hidden fees. They were also so HONEST as opposed to the dealership I originally took my car to. They explained the issue to me in a way that I could easily understand (I admittedly know very little about cars!) and they also gave me pricing information for how much the repairs SHOULD cost (the dealership was definitely overpriced, something I would not have known otherwise). Overall, this is a great shop and I would recommend to anyone in the area. It’s really hard to find an auto shop that isn’t overpriced and is also HONEST (especially if you know very little about cars). I will be a long term customer!

Still does a great job and great customer service

I previously had good experiences here but the last 2 times I've been to the shop have not been the greatest. I had an inspection done and picked it up after paying $1200 to have it fixed, only to find I still had a tail light out, there was a rattling in my back end and I was told my tires were good. Less than a week after I had to replace all 4 tires. I took it back 4 months later for another $1000 repair and it took almost 4 weeks to get my car back. I'm going elsewhere in the future.

Michael Johnson's auto repair shop took real good care of my auto repair needs. They are number 1 in my book! Thank you Chris for taking the time and explaining everything to me!

Micheal Johnson is the BEST, my son needed a passenger side mirror to pass Inspection, I was going to buy a cheap one but Michael went to a junkyard and found one from the same type car (just a different color). For just a few dollars.

Mike has been my family's mechanic since before I was born. Mike is a gruff, lively, well-tattooed guy who gives honest, straight diagnoses to your car problems. I have never once been ripped off, and trust him and his crew every time. There were two occasions in the years I went there where they made a *minor* mistake, and they fixed it immediately, no charge, no hassle. They won't charge you for extra parts, and they are up-front about suggestions and options. I'd recommend calling at least 2 weeks ahead of your preferred time, since they always have a long line of people waiting.

Never completely trusted any auto mechanic shop until I started bringing my vehicles here. When talking to shop, I now know I'm getting truthful information. Thanks!

Very expensive. Go somewhere else

Was a great place to go. Owner has bad attitude! Plus they couldn't even hear the loud rattling noise coming from my steering wheel.

Honest and up front. I take both my cars here

Dec 07, 2020

Honest, reliable, customer service by all amazing! Michael Johnson is a wonderful business owner, employer, and provides customers personal service and care in an honest way. I LOVE Michael Johnson"s Auto Center. I feel as if I am "family,"

Honestly, fantastic service. My 2006 Mercedes had a pretty significant oil leak. A Monro quoted me $1600+ to fix it. Another mechanic told me he couldn't fix it and my only option was to take it to the Mercedes dealership. I called here just to try one more place because it had spectacular reviews. Mike got on the phone with me for 20 minutes explaining what he would do to diagnose the issue, how to get to his shop, and promised to not over charge or "take me for a ride". I really appreciated the time he spent with me on the phone. He also said "you take your car to me once, you'll never take it anywhere else". I thought okay, nice pitch, but we'll see. Tim was very professional and diagnosed my car with the problem and quoted me a little over $300 total to fix the issue. I was super happy with that after what the Monro place told me. Also, they deduct the diagnostic fee (~$40) from your bill if they fix it. They fixed my car and then also noticed a busted hose. I got that fixed as well with them but they realized they forgot (and I forgot) to deduct their diagnostic fee for the oil leak. When I went back to pay for the new hose, they waived the labor charge for the hose and deducted the diagnostic fee from that bill and I ended up getting an envelope with $17 in it. Definitely are an honest business that didn't take advantage of me. And Mike was right, I'm not taking my car anywhere else. I live about 30 mintues away, but I'll drive that distance for great work.

I called and asked if they could get my car in for a timing chain replacement, and the guy said they wouldn't because it's just him (won't hire help) and he has enough work (my business isn't wanted). If anyone is looking for mechanic work this place might be hiring?... If you want your vehicle worked on this place is is not for you.

I was in an unfortunate situation where I needed an evaluation on a serious mechanical issue with my car in extremely short time frame. During the whole process, Michael was extremely helpful, upfront, and honest. He helped me in a very stressful situation and I am extremely thankful. He will be my go to mechanic from here on out.

Dec 07, 2020

Me and my wife have both gone here the last few years and it’s been nothing but great. Each of us has had something minor that needed fixed or looked at and Michael didn’t even charge us. We’ll never go anywhere else!

Michael has serviced our vehicles for many years. He and his mechanics are wonderful to deal with and have always given us great advice.
