Jims Auto Service - Lake City (FL)

1 /5 Andy Norris: I do not recommend. Staff was rude, and charged my wife almost 70 dollars plus the cost of wiper blades to change them. I get it, got to charge for your time, but it doesnt take 30 minutes to change wiper blades... Auto Zone does it for free and in about 3 minutes.

5 /5 Kali Watson: We ran into car trouble on a road trip to Miami. Our check engine, AT Oil Temp, ABS, and traction control lights turned on, and would turn on every time we got on the highway. The team quickly helped to get a diagnostic, and while the part we needed was solely carried at a dealership, the whole team was helpful in coming up with possible solutions and also gave some advice as to how to avoid the problem in the future. I highly recommend this mechanic shop!! Thank you guys for your kindness, help, and up front honesty!!

5 /5 Andy Perry: These guys were absolute lifesavers. If you ever have automotive issues on Interstate 10 or 75 and say 40 miles from Lake City, these are the guys you want. I spent 5 hours on I-10 waiting for AAA to arrive. When they said it might not be until the next morning, I immediately called Jims Auto and Towing service. The flatbed showed up 45 minutes later and the driver took great care to not so much even nudge my front bumper. Pretty soon, I was dropped off outside the gate in front of their shop late at night where I slept in the van and waited for the shop to open in the next morning. The shop has by far the largest waiting room Ive ever seen at an automotive shop - very comfortable to be there and wait. Although they were very busy, they really worked hard to get me back on the road. Jim came out everytime when they found a little more information and was giving me frequent updates. In the end it was him who took it out for a test drive to make sure it was roadworthy again. A few hours later, I was good to go, and I made it back to South Florida that evening. AAA also sent me a reimbursement check, so even if you do have AAA just call them and get reimbursed later. I saw a lot of horror stories in these reviews about people waiting on the side of the road in this region for hours- not something you want to do in the Florida heat. The shop itself is AAA approved and you will get 10% off the labor up to a savings of $50 if you just show them your card.) Honest, trustworthy, and extremely competent is this shop. Thanks again, guys - you are awesome!

5 /5 Brandon Serna: Highly recommend Jim’s auto service. Had a great experience with Rob when our Tesla wasn’t starting after the Lake City Supercharger. Rob was knowledgeable, helpful and courteous. Good to note that Jim’s auto service is Tesla Certified so they know the proper ways to handle Teslas (winching, tow mode, and straps).

5 /5 Ashley Herring: Jim’s saved the day for us when our motorhome blew a belt on I75. They came out quick, were incredibly friendly and honest!!! They got us back on the road in 1 business day!!! Their tow price was half the local competitors. They were easily able to work on our vintage 85 Chevy chassis and get the AC compressor in and cranking in hours. From the office ladies, to the tow truck driver to the birthday tech who let my dog clean his face, the most kind and helpful company. THANK YOU JIMS!
