Jaime Auto Service

I have been going here for years and they have always done a good job at a fair price and are very nice and helpful.

This place was my go to for all my auto issues great service with good fare prices but now they have built an addition and they feel the need to overcharge. I brought my truck there because the battery was dieing and wanted to see what was causing issue they said nothing was wrong with truck just had to charge battery and they charged me $ 45 for tow fair price. ?45 for diagnostic fee BS charge $ 19 to charge battery BS charge and $ 19 to clean connections BS charge. Not your customers fault you built an addition you didn’t need. Small buisness getting to big for his britches. Service fee you to death need a new mom pop shop I can use?

I have brought my car here several times and they have always done a good job fixing it. Their prices are lower than what other auto shops have given me estimates for. For the most part they have the car ready when they say and do call me once ready to be picked up. I appreciate their honesty and will continue to bring my car here.

went to jaimes because i had a clanking noise under the front driver side wheel of my car. their were a couple bays opened so i took a chance an swung the car in. i asked if a mechanic could take a look if they had time. the place is clean and the clerk was nice enough. my only problem was they charge 43.00 just to put the car on the ramp. that may be okay for some but once its up there a customer could be trapped into paying a higher price for service even though they refund the the inspection fee back (only if u have the work done by them) i like to see what i’m getting before i pay a 43.00 price for 5 mins of their time. i drove to archer & kostner Roys he checked it out in a couple of minutes and told me what i thought it was a tie rod end, he was a little busy and said if you bring it back tomorrow at 8 am he’ll do the job for 140.00 dollars. i did so, they done a great job! no more clank or noise and they won a future customer …

I wish I could give this business less than one star.
I have an older car — I call it vintage.
It failed the emissions and this garage is in the Air Team mechanics book.
I called them and the girl said they were really dead and now was a good time.
I got there and «now is a good time» meant they wanted me to sit in their crappy dirty waiting room for two hours while they had lunch and «finished up a few things.» I said that I wasn’t about to wait and I was going to find someone else. They said they would drive me home and call when the estimate was ready.
While I was waiting for my ride — another customer came in and said that he paid $ 1,000.00 for his air conditioning and it still didn’t work. This was his third visit and he wanted to see the owner. The woman behind the counter kept putting him off until a mechanic came out and brushed him off.
He said they would drive me home and come and get me — they would even take it in for the emissions test for me. At that point I should have been worried. Why would they take my car to the emissions test? No one even likes taking their own car to the emissions.
Four hours later I call them and they deny saying they are going to come and get me. I give a little pressure because now I am stranded and they have my car. They said it would be about $ 1,000.00 and there was no guarantee because some of the parts were rusty.
ONE THOUSAND DOLLATRS AND NO GUARANTEE!
I just said — again — come and get me or bring my car here. They — eventually — send a guy to come and get me. On the way to the garage I asked the guy if my car was in pieces. He said that it was waiting for me. Everything was fine.
I get back to the garage and the mechanic (ironically named Angel) says, «Oh, did they call you?» I said «No, I called you.»
«I get the boss!» he said.
«I don’t need the boss. Just get my car off of that thing. You guys are asking for too much money.»
«You gotta wait for the boss. He’ll explain everything.»
«If the explanation doesn’t include a price reduction of about $ 800.00 then I don’t want to talk to the boss,» I said.
The «boss» came out and started jawing. When he realized there was no business he told me he was going to charge me $ 40.00 because that is how long it took to drive me and to check out my car. Then he thought again and raised it to $ 45.00
When I reminded him that Angel promised to pick me up — Angel got a little nervous than lied right in front of my face. I said I was not paying a penny and that he better get me my car. If you charge for estimates that has to be stated somewhere. (He also said that he had to pay Angel hourly rate for driving me when Angel never drove me.)
«You didn’t ask?» the «boss» said. «You gotta ask?»
«GET MY CAR DOWN NOW!» says I.
«I will charge you.»
«There will be no charge. Did you F**k up my paperwork from the emissions people?» I ask.
«The girl will give it to you.»
I go into the crappy little office and the girl locates my paperwork and gives it to me. The boss comes back in and starts to say something. I interrupt him with, «It isn’t my fault you don’t know how to run a business.»
«Your car is running,» is all he said.
I left. My regular guy (who I should have called in the first place) said, «Don’t worry, Paulito. We can do it for $ 200.00. Come tomorrow!»
Stay as far away from Jaime and his crappy little place and his dishonest Angel.

took my 12 y.o.old car here twice in the last 2 years. First time, june 2010, they told me over $ 800 for a new a/​c compressor. Car one in Bridgeport replaced the a/​c pulley for $ 135. 2^nd time i took my car here, Sept 2011, after failing the emission test. Jaime’s told me $ 575 for an evap canister. Car one replaced the evap cannister valve for $ 150. never again will i even consider taking a car here.

I took my car in for AC repair. They replaced the evaporator which is deep in the dashboard. After the $ 1000 «repair», the heater won’t blow out the floor vents and there is a squeak behind the dashboard with every bump. And to top it off the AC isn’t working either. Avoid at all costs!

I saw a pick up truck for sale in jaime’s auto repair shop lot so I took a look at it. I figured why would a mechanic be selling a junk car on his lot. I called & spoke to the so called owner to test drive. It ran like a beauty when it came down to paying I was told the original owner was leaving to mexico & that to pay jaime & he had the title. So it went down as planned & I was off. After driving it for about 2 hours the oil gauge sky rocketed & it shut off! I had to wait an hour for it to start again. i took strait to jaimes so he can find out what was wrong. Next day ii get a call from him saying it needed a new engine. The day before he was the one who sold it to me & told me it was a friends & that it was a good truck that he drove it everyday back & forth & never had a problem! i knew there was something funny about the deal when the first guy I spoke to claimed to be going to mexico. The lady on the front desk was the one signing the title & colecting the cash & wrote out a reciept. I had to beg them for my money beck & threaten them with legal action. Finally Jaime came clean & gave me my money back but shorted me $ 200 dollars for the brake line that was mysteriously broke & blamed on me& for him having to order a new title because we signed it. can you really trust a machanic who allow someone to sell lemon cars on his auto repair parking lot? He swore to me it was inspected thoroughly by himself & driven for hours everyday. I was just so happy to get my money back that I did’nt care at the time for the other $ 2oo. i could sure use them right about now: (

I have had thus far, a very terrible experience with Jaime’s mechanic shop! I would not recommend it at all. I have taken my vehicle to this shop over and over again! And, they can not seem to fix my car!!! And, to top it off, the lady that handles the reception area is rude and very unprofessional! Who should be mad at who??? Complete disappointment!
