With Travis, Chris and the crew, theres no going wrong with this place. Theyre fair, honest and incredibly helpful when it comes to your vehicle. Ive recommended them to my brothers and family and some take their vehicles to them that live in Thousand Oaks and Newbury Park. Let that sink in for a moment. These guys are awesome and Id encourage you to send them as much business as they can handle.The more locations this place has, the better it is for anyone who drives (lets be honest here, thats damn near all of you!). They have more than earned a glowing reputation.
I recently took my Dodge Durango in for an oil change and 100,000 mile service. The service was great. They had my car in and out in no time at all. The prices were very reasonable. Chris was honest, friendly, and knowledgeable. He informed me of future items that would need to be repaired, but were not an emergency. I did not deal with anyone beside Chris, but he was all around amazing. I will keep coming back and referring my friends and family! Thank you for serving our community.
Best place to go for service in Simi Valley! Very trustworthy, if you are looking around for someone honest and reliable who knows their stuff go to Travis at JBS.
I brought my 2004 Toyota Camry into JBS Auto Services with a whole lot of issues (noises in the AC unit, smelling gasoline after turning off engine, check engine light on, hesitation when accelerating, etc). I had been putting off taking it to a shop because I’m so horrified of being ripped of since I don’t know anything about cars. But I’m so happy I found out about JBS and brought it to them. Chris was super nice and understanding with me while I explained to him all the issues. He was able to give me an estimate in a few hours that was actually a lot less than I was anticipating. He explained what my car needed and why without overwhelming me with too much information that I wouldn’t understand. He also explained what I needed to have fixed ASAP and what issues could wait a little bit. I was going to have to leave my car there over the weekend and he offered to meet me there on his day off to get me my car back after it was fixed so I wouldn’t haven’t to go without a car the whole weekend. Then, to my surprise he made sure my car was done early for me on Friday right before they closed for the weekend. I really appreciated the fast and professional service and never plan on taking my car anywhere else. It’s running great again and I feel safe on the road knowing I put my car in the right hands. Thanks guys!
Travis and the team do great work! The communication is always clear and timely. I have a great deal of trust in the JBS staff. If things don’t go exactly as planned, they let me know what happened and what’s next.If you need a simple oil change or a new Jasper engine, I would highly recommend JBS Auto Services!
Travis and his crew are honest and accommodating. I trust JBS with my car. The work is good and your car is delivered back to you in a timely manner. JBS is the only place I will take my car for repairs.
The friendly-family feeling they give you from the moment you walk in the door. Everyone is so extremely knowledgeable and willing to help. They even go out of their way for their customer if it is needed. My favorite is the follow-up text messages we get to make sure everything is perfect. Absolutely amazing management and mechanics. Not to mention and this is huge for the mechanic field, they are absolutely the most honest guys you will ever know. Thank you, JBS! For all you do.
Top Notch. Great service and a very trustworthy shop.
JBS Auto has earned my business! I am very particular about good service, integrity and value. JBS satisfies all of these. They have addressed necessary repair without upselling or over replacing. And have given TREMENDOUS advice, taking time to address and discuss future needs and maintenance/upkeep tips for keeping my truck in top running shape...Thanks Travis and JBS!
I was referred to Travis at JBS by a friend who had his starter replaced on his Tundra. I took my Sequoia in for an oil change to a shop in Thousand Oaks. Since my vehicle has over 200K miles I asked them to check for any leaks. They informed me that my main seal and intake manifold were leaking. I hadnt noticed any significant leaks on the ground so I found this interesting. The repairs were going to cost close to $1000. I decided it wasnt an emergency and to get another opinion. Before taking my car to Travis I steam cleaned the engine and drove the vehicle for a couple weeks so he would be able to see more easily if there was leak. Come to find out Travis did not find any significant leaks considering the mileage on the car. There is some seepage, but no leaks. This was great news as I was heading up north to Big Sur. He checked my brakes as well which were good too. Needless to say I will be bringing my cars as well as friends and family to Travis from now on.By the way, when I rented a car from Hertz I got the shop rate and the lady at the counter said JBS...oh yeah everyone in Simi knows them. They are the place to go to get your car repaired honestly! I highly recommend JBS, Travis and Chris!
DODGE VIPER. Trying to do Viper on a budget is almost impossible! If you go to Dodge, you have to go where a Viper qualified mechanic is and not all dealerships have one. Went to JBS and asked if they would like to have a go at it. Travis said hed never worked on one before, but its just nuts and bolts like any other car. Needed plug wires and coils changed. Unfortunately the intake has to come off as the coils are under it. Travis had a little trouble waiting on parts, but got it bangin on all 10 again. Price??? I know its at least half of what Dodge would have charged after they apply the Viper Tax. Only problem at JBS is they are super busy and I can see why. Thanks-Travis!!
Upon initial consultation I was faced with a possible expensive fix. After Travis diagnosed the problem turns out it was something easy and inexpensive to repair. It’s this kind of honesty and professionalism that gets them a five star rating from me. It is reassuring having your vehicle tended to by someone who is skillful and knowledgeable in their trade.
Brought my Ford Flex in for a sub-frame out internal water pump replacement. They did a great job and delivered ahead of schedule. Both Travis and Chris are straight forward in explaining what needs to be done and have a great attitude. Im in the classic car business and ex-service writer and I will sometimes wrench on my cars. I would explicitly trust them with all my vehicle repairs that are above my pay grade. Keep up the great work, guys!!
I call for a fuel filter change and Travis and his team was able to fit me in at the last minute before our trip. Many thanks! See you next time when I need work on my Ram 2500.
I highly recommend JBS. I’ve been taking my vehicles there the last 3-4 years. Last November, I had my brakes replaced and after about 6 months heard some noise. I called JBS and they took a look and said there was an issue with the brand of pads. JBS switched out the brakes and also changed my oil for free! These guys take great care of us and I couldn’t be happier with the service and value.
Great work and great prices. Had some work done on my F250 and when my plugs started faulting they honored their warranty work even though there was a change in ownership. Honest customer service like that is hard to come by.
Travis was completely honest and fair. My truck came back running better than new and he even had it washed, he went above and beyond. Travis and his crew communicated well and there is no where else I would trust with my vehicle. Thanks guys!
Chris and Travis took great care of me and my truck. Will definitely be coming back.
Excellent service and knowledge. On time (my truck was completes when promised). and my invoice was EXACTLY what thy said it would be. I will ALWAYS go to them.....
I dont write reviews, so this is important to me.Chris was helpful and friendly on the phone.Travis, JBSs Diesel Guru was also friendly and helpful. He asked all the right questions, didnt talk down to me and was sympathetic for my problem.I replaced the injectors on my 2006 F250 6.0L powerstroke then I couldnt get it started. Needless to say I thought I messed something up, bad. Travis was honest, gave my truck a hard work over and test, said he had to charge the batteries and everything else checked out good.Travis was great. I recommend this place to everyone.Great job guys.
These guys are my go to experts for anything automotive. Always accurate in diagnosis and professional in their repair work!
The team at JBS went above and beyond with my motorhome. When they found a major problem they gave me all of the options and scenarios to fix the problem. In the end it was a simple fix and I was on my way. I got my RV back in time for our trip. I highly recommend JBS Auto Services.
The best auto shop in Simi
Travis and the guys at JBS Auto Services are awesome, they value their customers, great prices, straight forward and warranty the work. I have been taking my 03 Silverado here for 2 years now best decision we made 100%. With full confidence I recommend this shop they had my Duramax running in top shape after a bad injector.
JBS is awesome!! they got us in right away, not just 1 car, but a whole fleet of our work vans! Service was professional, COURTEOUS and great turn time in having our cars ready and back on the road!!! Much thanks to JBS and their team!!!
Used to take my diesel van here when it needed repairs. They were always friendly and did work for a fair price. Had to bring a gas SUV in recently with weird obd2 issues. They fixed it up and got it smogged. Good to see service is still great.
Great shop and great work, taking all my vehicles here from now on
The owner Jerry is an honest mechanic, Great job for a fair price. I would not bring my cars anywhere else. We take all 3 of our cars there. He is also very involved in the community, gives back and volunteers for many events. Fast reliable service. My husband and I also took his free basic car maintenance class.
Anytime I have an issue that my husband cant fix, Jerry is there to help. He always is able to squeeze me in. I dont have to worry about being taken advantage of because I am a woman. He is a stand up guy, and runs a great business.In addition, he has FREE teaching workshops, to give people who dont really understand cars, a basic understanding of how and what a vehicle needs to keep running smoothly. He is such a strong member of the community, and volunteers his time to Simi Valley... why would you go anywhere else? :)
Its not only the service you need sometimes but a connection with the person Jerry is a genuine honest man never a dull moment and service to the point. Appreciate JBS and the services they provide, Merry does. It only have a store but actively involved with the community. 5 stars forever Thank you Jerry.
Knowledgeable and fair. JBS takes the time to research and answer questions, they approach each job with the same care and dedication. Easily the best shop in town.Beyond business, the owner gives back to the community in a big way; from posts advice for common automotive issues on his Facebook page to spearheading the purchase and assembling of bikes for underprivileged kids at Christmas and setting up festivals to benefit the community.Honest. Generous. Knowledgeable. Thats JBS.
Recently took a couple of my vehicles to JBS Auto. Gave Jerry a list of issues and things I would have liked done. Based on the findings of one car and its age, he decided to not waste my money and to not do the remaining repairs. He most certainly could have done everything I asked and made a chunk of change but knowing the car was not worth all the repairs he advised against it. I appreciate his honesty. He looks out for his customers.
When my diesel pickup needs service, and I dont feel like doing the work myself, I always take it to Jerry at JBS Auto. Jerry is an honest mechanic who never tries to upsell his customers. Ladies, he wont overcharge you. Its nice to know there are honest people still who actually try to help you. I highly recommend this shop.
JBS Automotive is a great place to take you car, truck or RV for Service. Jerry the owner takes pride in his business and really cares about his customers. He has taken care of my Families vehicles for years, and we trust his and his crews work. We are lucky in Simi Valley to have a business owner who truly cares about his customers and always goes out of his way to make sure the job is done correct, and at a fair price.Buddy PercinSimi Valley CA.
I will not take any of our vehicles anywhere else! Travis (the owner) is very accommodating, friendly, understanding and fair. There have been times where I needed something done ASAP and he has been able to get me in and out, even though he is really busy.There have never been any surprises or upsells. You will never have to worry about getting ripped off. I hate to brag about him too much for fear he will be too busy for me! Haha.In all seriousness, I think you would be hard-pressed to find anyone more knowledgeable, especially for diesels.
Thanks to JBs the AC is so cold now .
My car broke down on my way to work one day. I heard about JBS so I took it there, and was helped out immediately. I really needed by car back ASAP and they made it happen for me. Price was reasonable too! I would definitely go back if I need to, and recommend JBS to a friend.
JBS Auto is the best in town. Jerry the owner is always available when Ive needed car repair. Hes fast, honest and fair. Id recommend JBS to anyone in need of vehicle repair.
As a woman its great to have an auto shop that you can trust where yu you know you wont be taken advantage of. JBS is that shop! On recommendation from my sister, I took my car in for my brakes to be replaced. After the inspection I was told they didnt need replacing just a good cleaning. They saved me tons of money and I know I wouldnt have received that service anywhere else! Thanks Jerry!
Best mechanic in town. Honest and prices are fair
Very good
So a couple days ago i asked for a recommendation on an honest and trustworthy mechanic & you guys recommended JBS. They were just the crew I needed after 3 bad experiences with other shops. Chris from JBS helped me and made everything understandable to a WOMAN lol everything from the work, the parts, and everything else in between that i was clueless about. From the start, I knew my car would be in great hands because they seemed passionate about their job. Although their customer satisfaction was very reassuring, I left thinking Id need a new alternator along with new sparkplugs (Not so great for my wallet). But after my car was (thoroughly) reviewed, they let me know Id only need new sparkplugs, as my alternator was ok! Unfortunately, mishaps do happen and throughout the process of returning my alternator, a small fuze blew. This maybe upsetting but chris was honest about it and handled it well! Not only did they replace the broken fuze FREE OF CHARGE, they also found the right problem (which 3 other shops couldnt). Although this was a 2 day job (ordering the parts) and the time he spend trying to find the problem, Chris didnt give up! I payed only for my new sparkplug, no labor cost (they took hours trying to figure out the problem)! Not only was car happy but my wallet was too! So in the end JBS will now be my go-to shop as I feel I can truly trust the service and know I will be getting my moneys worth! The guys were super nice and honest. Chris didnt give up, he was determined to find out what was wrong and Im so glad he did because as a single parent of 3 kids I NEED a car i can depend on 24/7.
They always do a great job on all of my cars and trucks keep up the good work guys see you soon
JBS did a great job working on my car, no issues with the quality of work or the price :) I suggest JBS to all my friends and family
