It is recommended you have an oil change every 3,000 - 5,000 miles to stop engine wear and keep oil free from particles. For your car's particular service intervals, always consult your owners guide or ask one of our professionals. When it's time for an oil change for your vehicle, knowing the best type of oil for your car is key.
Brakes are one of the most important components on your vehicle. You need the confidence of knowing that when you press your foot to the brake, your vehicle is going to stop. Have your brakes checked at least once a year - more often if you drive frequently in city traffic or live in a hilly area. If you hear a scratching or grinding noise when not braking, this also can be a sign of a brake or bearing issue and should be inspected immediately.

Excellent work and professional service. Always a great experience! I had my car's heating system fixed most recently but have previously had oil changes and other maintenance work done at J&C. Thank you again! Highly recommend!

Had my wife's car inspected here. They told me the brake light bulb was out and charged me $150 usd to replace it. It is a $4 dollar bulb. And replacement labor was 4 minutes tops. Several days after the inspection I checked all the fluids like power steering and brake fluid and both were critically low. They overlooked it. The car had 3 shocks leaking oil. The inspector did not bring it to my attention neither. I got my stickers on a car that was not safe to drive and was charged $150 for a 5 minute job.

Went in for a routine inspection the vehicle was not returned in the condition that it was brought in. The removed wiring covers poked holes in brand new wiring to test for no reason and did not cover it. The removed a tube from my air system and did not replace it. Which probably caused my check engine light to stay on longer than necessary save time and money go somewhere professional. They also requested an obscene amount of money to repair it and likely told me parts that did not require replacement in the first place. It sounded like for the check engine light diagnostic they were going to

Unfortunate experience with local Dealer Service Department...3 different visits with a vehicle under warranty. Happy to have found this place, they identified the issue in 10 minutes and managed a reimbursement with the 3rd party warranty company. I’ll be bringing all my vehicles back to be serviced.

High quality work, I had a wiring problem nobody wanted to touch, JC took care of the problem. They kept excellent comminicated about the issues and set clear expectations the entire time so there was no surprises. This was my first time at the shop and I know I can rely on them to do excellent work.

This place is the worst. I've stopped a few times to have done tires plugged. I don't know why but I keep running over screws, nails, etc. Every Time I go in there, the old guy looks over from his seat and says, it's going to be about 45 minutes. Seriously? It takes 5 minutes to plug a tire, literally as my tire is deflating I'm asking if anyway they could get to it after. His response is simply no. I don't expect all work to stop because I walked in, but when employees are sitting around it's bothersome. Not to mention the fact they charge $25.00 to plug a tire, seems

Since the Millevoi Bros gave this location up the new owners are sorely lacking. Their gas prices are fair and are open extended hours. This place might be ok for a flat tire or a new set of wiper blades but even basic preventative maintanence maybe a bit much for them. Just look around and judge for yourself.

I took my car here for inspection, they called me before doing any work( I thought). When they called me he told me I needed new tires and new brakes but I just got new tires and new brakes. So I told him not to do anything and I will pick it up after work. They ended up doing an oil change and used the most expensive oil. Needless to say I had to pay $118 for emission and the oil change after I asked them not to do any work! They are a bunch of crooks. They will try to sell you things you don't need and bend you over backwards in the process. Save your money and go somewhere else! I would

I'd give 0 stars if possible. Took my brand new car, (only 1 year old) for inspection, and they tore my windshield wiper blades up so I would have to pay them $75.00 for the new OEM wiper blades. They held my car hostage telling me they wouldn't pass the inspection till I replaced them. TOTAL RIP OFF PLACE!! Avoid this place!!!!
