Consumer Comments for J & C Auto Service

Consumer from Downers Grove, IL

Trust them to not try and sell me something I don't need, and to tell me what needs to be done and what kind of shape the vehicle is in. Average pricing, but worth it to not have to worry about being ripped off as some of the horror stories you hear in this industry, and to have the work done properly.

This is the best auto service in the area. I wish they had a bigger shop, so that they could take in more service, as they are always swamped. But they are worth the wait. Excellent, knowledgeable, and pleasant service.

J&C worked on a continuing problem with our van, with the first fix not fully taking care of the problem. It took a couple more attempts to fully fix it, but they only charged for parts after the first repair and really worked hard to make sure it was right.
