I looked long and hard for a shop that I consider a good honest shop to do my services. After the glowing reports of Watkinsville Automotive, I decided to have them work on my toyota avalon. The work was done the way I would have done it. The car runs better than when I bought it (used), it was done on time. One way you can tell it a good shop is how busy it is to get in. I highly recommend Watkinsville Automotive.

I brought my Ford F150 to Joey Watkins Tire & Automotive after the truck stalled and had to be…read moretowed on 05/31/26 from the Target parking lot in Flowery Branch. Prior to stalling, the truck had been jerking, sputtering during acceleration, and losing power while driving. After evaluating the truck, I was told the spark plugs needed to be replaced. I approved the repair and paid $509.19. I was then told the truck was fixed. Unfortunately, shortly after leaving, the exact same issue happened again. The truck began sputtering and completely died near Friendship Road and I985, creating a dangerous situation in traffic and resulting in another emergency tow that cost me an additional $300. I returned the truck and explained that the issue was still occurring. However, because the truck happened to start for them during testing, I was told they could not replicate the problem and did not know what was wrong. I specifically asked about fuel system concerns because the symptoms felt fuel related, but no diagnosis was made beyond the spark plugs. At that point, I no longer trusted the truck to be safe to drive and took it directly across the street to Christian Brothers Automotive Buford for a second opinion. Shortly after arriving there, the truck stalled again while they were attempting to move it into the service bay. Because the failure occurred while connected to diagnostics, they were able to pull active fault codes indicating issues with the fuel pump and fuel pump control module. I ultimately authorized approximately $2,000 in repairs for the actual problem. In retrospect, the spark plug replacement appears to have been more of a guess at the problem than an actual diagnosis, especially considering the symptoms remained exactly the same immediately afterward and the real issue turned out to be fuel system related. To be fair, intermittent mechanical issues can be difficult to diagnose, and the staff was polite throughout the process. However, I am disappointed that I spent over $500 on repairs that did not address the issue at all, followed by another breakdown and tow immediately after being told the vehicle was fixed. Given the safety risk involved with a vehicle stalling in traffic, I expected a more thorough diagnostic process before being told the truck was repaired.

From the moment I walked in, the team was professional, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable. They took the time to clearly explain what was going on with my vehicle, gave me an honest estimate upfront, and didn't try to upsell anything I didn't need--which is rare these days. What really impressed me was their efficiency and attention to detail. The work was completed quickly, and everything was done right the first time. It's obvious they take pride in what they do and genuinely care about their customers. Finding a trustworthy mechanic isn't easy, but these guys have earned my business for the long haul. If you're looking for honest, reliable, and top-quality auto service, I highly recommend them. -- Bob Hendrix
