I have recently had trouble with my vehicle. The dealer wants to charge way to much. The first mobile mechanic flaked out, the second made the repair but incorrectly. A friend took me to Craig Johnson Automotive ( clouds parting, beams of sunlight and do I hear an angel chorus?) he took his time,correctly identified the issues corrected the previous mechanic’s repairs and helped me with the dealer to have repairs covered by an extended warranty. Craig is knowledgeable, He has a large wall in his office covered with credentials and certifications. He is patient, professional and explains in detail what’s going on with your car, why it’s happening and how to fix it. He even helped me to get to get the car smogged. I highly recommend Craig Johnson he is trustworthy. - Kathy B. (5 star review on Facebook)

As someone in an industry that is often maligned, not trusted and the butt of many jokes Craig Johnson and his shop stand out. I can't say enough about their integrity that allows us to trust them and be able to make informed decisions when in an automotive crises. This makes coming to them for all the minor problems and regular maintenance an easy decision. Craig goes above and beyond the everyday to see to it that the work is done right and that you are totally satisfied with their work and performance. - Patrick P. (5 star review on Yelp)

Craig runs one of the best automotive shops in the business.  They are thorough, professional and most importantly honest. I have been going to him for repair needs for about five years. I highly recommend this business. - Thanh S. (5 star review on Yelp)

My father has been a patron of Craig Johnson Automotive for years, as the go to auto shop. Recently, my 2010 Camaro had engine failure. Chevrolet want my first born child as collateral to replace the engine. Craig quote me a better price towed the car away from the dealership the next day. Craig Johnson Automotive ordered 2016 version of the engine, dropped it in, and returned my car in LESS THEN TWO WEEKS! This company is deserving of every dollar spent. I brought the car back for a checkup. Craig discovered my right front brake was on backwards. He fixed it. Worth every dollar spent. - Elliot C.

My husband and I are new to the area. A few months ago he needed some work done on his car and he found Craig Johnson Automotive. He was impressed with their work. A few weeks ago, my car was having some trouble. My car needed to be towed to the shop and they took my car in on short notice. They offered to take me home after dropping my car off, but I had planned to walk home since I live close by. They called me to make sure I had gotten home safely. I was kept informed every step of the way with phone calls. Craig sent me a PDF file with the needed repairs in order of priority with each repair separately listed with price. At no time was I pressured to have any of the work done. When I picked up my car after repairs were completed, Craig again went over everything with me. I truly felt like I was an appreciated customer. - Jaclyn V.

Craig Johnson Auto is honest, fair, and they look out for their customers. I've been servicing my cars here for years now and never had any issues. Thanks Craig Johnson Automotive! - Chris S.

Always pleased with Craig and his team. Honest, fair and very knowledgeable. I've trusted my cars to Craig for many years. I won't go anywhere else. - Rhonda T.

I recently went to see the pro's at CJ Automotive for my 30K oil change and service to my 2016 Tundra. A day or so later I had smelled a foul odor that I assumed was from the antibacterial spray used on my newly installed cabin filter. I called the shop and I was assured that the smell would go away in a day or so and still the smell lingered. I grew puzzled as nothing like this had ever occurred. I return to have this remedied only to discover I was the one at fault. The entire team converged on my vehicle and began the search. Tony was the one to discover the culprit. He could smell the strong pungent odor behind the driver's seat. As I lifted up the rear rubber floor mat Tony's eagle eye spotted something and said "Hey, what's that?" I looked where Tony pointed and say a decomposing red potato. It had fallen out of my grocery bag days before and began to dehydrate. This experience is yet another positive one as a longtime customer with Craig Johnson Automotive! - J.R.

I came across Craig Johnson on Yelp and it looked good based on reviews. I used the Yelp feature to get a quote and Craig himself got back to me very quickly. I needed my brakes replaced on my Nissan. He gave me a quote based on my information. I dropped off my car while on my lunch hour and Larry calls me 2 and half hours later and says they're done and the amount was exactly what I was quoted. Great, quick service and family owned business. Will be back if I need work on my car. - Matt P.
