Highly recommend JBS Auto for all of your automotive needs. Amazing business and amazing people that work there wouldn't trust anybody else.

Chris is a very fair mechanic who understands some financial situations of some of his clients. He's my go-to-guy for my 2008 Ford FOCUS

Always amazing service! Honest and reliable and a great value over the dealership pricing. Take both my diesel truck and my wife's jeep here. read more

We were in a pickle, in fact, whole Jat of pickles. My husband's beloved 2016 Eco Diesel truck's engine seized on the 101 Freeway at Exit40. We were advised by tow truck company that an auto shop in Simi Valley specialized in such trucks. It was diagnosed with engine failure and to replace would be upwards $20,000 if you could find one. Faced with this information we had decisions to make and quickly. JBS kindly let us store truck on their premises for several days until they went online and found a service (Peddle) to pick up truck and give us a check for parts etc on the vehicle. Pleased as punch with JBS's service, patience and help. These folks at JBS were so nice when we needed them to be. We wish them many years of success! read more

Pricy but great service. Very friendly staff, professional service, knowledgeable. I would certainly recommend JBS but be prepared to pay a high price. read more

When we were on a trip to Arizona our truck broke down and we were hauling our 36' 5th wheel. We were transported to JBS by a tow truck and had no idea where to go...the driver called JBS and they were right on it! We were so happy with the mechanics who got us back on the road within hours. They were very accommodating and we couldn't have had better service if we were at home!!! Thank you JBS...we'd recommend everyone to go there for service! read more

JBS Auto Services - JBS AUTO Service - Auto Repair Near Me - Simi Valley, California

Just had one of a nightmare experience with them. Found out they are almost 30% more expansive than Pep Boys...only for oil change they charged me 150 vs 100 pep boys.. only for cabin filter they charged 80 usd. Guy himself said we cant compete with pep boys..my fault it was..shouldnt trust blindly on prices. read more

Was very helpful and knowledgeable with explaining options to repair vs replace, and answered every question we asked. Would definitely use again and also recommend JBS. read more

These guys are amazing! An honest mechanic with more than fair pricing. I was referred by a friend after telling them that the dealer wanted my first born of a 30k service. They were thorough, explained what is required and even sent me a text with pictures of things needing to be replaced. My cars new best friends! Thanks JBS! read more

I originally tried JBS due to their high customer ratings and I haven't been disappointed. I've been here a couple times now for various reasons and their customer service is always top notch, same with the quality of work and communication. I had 1 big project done that I got quotes at a couple different places. JBS came in slightly under other shops and they took care of the problem and I've had no issues since. I'm glad I found this place, they're my go-to mechanics now. read more

I love these guys! They took me & my Mustang in after my old mechanic suddenly passed away (r.i.p. Mike of M R ) & left us orphaned, and then they got a bunch of work done in the quickest time I've ever seen! They listen to me carefully when I tell them what's going on & also they really take the time to explain to me in laymen's terms what is going on in my engine, ntm they are all very friendly & outgoing! It's a win-win for everyone all around!! read more

We have been going to JBS for a few years now & I'm surprised I haven't written a review for them yet, because it's very well deserved. We got an outrageous estimate for work from our previous mechanic, wanted a second opinion, and were referred to JBS by my brother-in-law. It's one of the best recommendations we've EVER gotten & we're beyond grateful to be "part of the family". Turns out the expensive issue the previous mechanic wanted to "fix" didn't even exist! JBS saved us $1800+ Travis & Chris made us feel like family from the very beginning. With some people, you KNOW they genuinely care about your safety, well-being, AND pocketbook, and these guys are said people! They've always been upfront, informative, communicative, fair, honest, and every service has been IMPECCABLE. I even had my passenger side window mechanism fail, causing the window to shatter during a rainstorm (go figure). Called up Chris & he had me take it in right then & there. It's pretty hard to find service like THAT these days. With a dealership, you're typically going in for an oil change & then they tack on a bunch of other "little things" they recommend you do, that you're never REALLY sure you need - you know the drill... At JBS, they're going to tell you what you need to do to keep your vehicle healthy/ safe, bottom line, no upselling. They truly care about making a positive impact on the community & I can't recommend or support them enough. THANK YOU Travis, Chris, and the JBS team! read more

Travis and his team deserve every star in all these amazing reviews. I'm happy to add my positive experience. I brought my Truck in a few months ago and he checked it out to tell me what was going on. No pressure just honest and straightforward. The first chance I got I brought my truck back and have 100% confidence knowing the work was done properly by a true professional. Super kind guys too. Highly recommend. read more

Fantastic service here. They were honest about what they could fix and gave great recommendations for what needed to be fixed. Call ahead to make an appointment. read more

I have a 2002 F350 diesel. I have had a slow oil leak in it for almost 5 years. I took it to my local Diesel mechanic several times, and thousands of dollars later but still, no solving the mysterious leak. Also, my AC was another ongoing problem for about five years. Finally, frustrated and about to sell the truck, I took it to Travis at at JBS. I am so glad that I did. He fixed the oil leak and my AC is working like brand new. I now have a competent, honest, lifelong mechanic that I can trust and count on as a problem solver. Thank you Travis and JBS auto service!!! read more

As always Travis and his crew came to my rescue. I needed my blinker light changed and they got me right in on a Thursday morning and worked on it while I waited. I will always recommend JBS for any mechanical issue. They have always been honest and fair. Thank you again Travis. read more

These guys are definitely on my recommended mechanics list. They were recommended to me by a couple of co-workers. I took my Kia to them because it had engine issues and was in limp mode. While they won't be the ones to fix it, they pointed me in the direction I needed to get it repaired and saved me a ton of money. Honest mechanics are hard to come by nowadays. They will definitely get my business from here on out. read more

They've taken good care of our cars. Better service then dealer and at competitive rates.

The team at JBS were awesome!!! (Chris and Travis were the only names that I got ). I have a 1997 Honda Civic that I LOVE! I'm under no circumstance knowledgeable about cars so like most people I had to TRUST what the mechanic says. In the past I have been a sitting duck for some auto shops and really regretted giving my little car over. 1. I had NO appointment and it was before the weekend. Chris said sure we'll take it just drop it off. They set real expectations about time frames and I got a call way sooner than anticipated. Within a day! 2. I had no clue what was wrong with it. I said about 5 words and they had already expressed personal experience with working on this make and model and had no concern with finding a solution. So I felt comfortable. 3. Of course I don't want to spend a fortune on a 1997 car with 140k miles but as I said I LOVE my little car. By the time Chris called he gave me lots of options. What he thought was important and I felt good about the plan that he established for additional care in the future. His pricing was great and what do you know... it was done super quick!!! This morning I got a text from Travis at JBS double checking if my "grocery getter" car was working well. Totally unexpected and really appreciated considering how crazy busy they were. I'm sure what I was spending with them may have been inconsequential compared to some of the work they were doing. (Classic cars, truck, etc..) I didn't feel for a minute I was inconveniencing them or my car was not a priority (appointment or not). If you need some help this is your team. Thanks again for your time and help especially in an extra stressful time. You guys made my car repair super easy. read more

These guys are always awesome! Great customer service, they don't try to sell you on more than you need. I feel good about going to them, feel they are honest. They don't try to gouge you on a price...I feel like the price is usually very fair for the work being done. They are quick to get me in and out for an oil change. Wonderful experience! Give them a try and see for yourself! read more

The best place by far for all your auto needs. From the customer service, the prices and the overall treatment this place is great. If you ever need anything bring it here and the owner Travis will take great care of you. Honest hardworking people that I trust with my cars. Thank you for taking care of our auto needs when we have an issue. Thank again, Dawn Gomez-Simi Valley read more

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. read more

Travis and his team got me in last Minute for my first oil change on my new 2019 dodge Durango GT plus leaving town in two days to drive to Prescott Arizona. Have 5000 miles on it I want to get the oil changed and serviced these guys got me and didn't have to on a Monday morning God is good as always thank you Travis I really appreciate you guys helping out I called Simi Valley Dodge and they said they couldn't get me in for four days just for an oil change seriously highly recommend Travis at GBS auto and his team read more

I wanted to leave a huge thanks to Travis at JBS auto services. I was having a weird problem with my 2015 Ford Edge. ( that a local dealer couldn't help me with for 2 weeks) I was able to discuss it with Travis and drop it off a few hours later. Travis said we would touch base the next morning after they tried to recreate the problem. While the car wouldn't do what I was having trouble with a few days earlier they thoroughly checked it out, drove it around town, let it run. Etc I'm thankful for his integrity, willingness to help and great advice. Give them a shot and I guarantee you won't be disappointed. read more

Super grateful for JBS! I'm used to shops trying to treat me as if I do not know anything and trying to upsell me like crazy even though I do most of the work on my own vehicles. JBS was different right off the bat. They treated me with so much respect and helped me diagnose a problem I had been trying to solve for several months on my truck! They did it in a quick and affordable manner that really eased my stress in the situation! I can say, I won't be taking my cars anywhere else! read more

Wonderful service. Communication the whole time. Called after a few days to touch bases to make sure everything went well. That was a first! Great customer service and work. read more

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 hadn't noticed any significant leaks on the ground so I found this interesting. The repairs were going to cost close to $1000. I decided it wasn't 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! read more

The truck died and we had it towed to JBS. We've Ben long time customers, but the ownership changed. Come to find Travis & crew are efficient, helpful, respectful and fair mechanics. Had the alternator fixed and batteries replaced by days end. I highly recommend to you reach out to JBS at 805-522-3923 on Chambers Lane--Simi West! read more

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 he'd never worked on one before, but it's 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 it's 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!! read more

When my headlight went out a few weeks back, and I took it to Jiffy Lube, thinking it would be a quick bulb replacement. The guy there gave me a whole song and dance about how it was an electrical problem and I'd need to buy replacement parts and get my wiring looked at...I was completely taken by surprise. So I took it to JBS, hoping they could fix it, whatever this problem was, but after I brought it in, Travis told me the other place had made a mistake, and there was no problem at all! He tested it out, cleaned it up, and had my car back to me within an hour. I could have invested hundreds in labor investigating an imaginary issue, but Travis changed my bulb out for free, didn't charge me a dime for the whole process. Great service, very friendly, very honest people. Would definitely recommend to anyone searching for a trustworthy mechanic. read more

I recently purchased a truck and was eager to have a trust worthy mechanic inspect it. I searched YELP and read many reviews before choosing JBS Auto Services where I met Travis. Travis was extremely knowledgeable and diligent with his inspection and very reasonable with his pricing. I'm happy I found this gem and will be back. Thank you Travis! read more

I have had my Duramax over to JBS twice for two different problems and Jerry and Frenchie did amazing work both times. Just a few days ago my diesel truck left me stranded and it was towed to their shop at 5:00 pm and at 7:20 that evening Frenchie called me to say it was fixed. Amazing. I highly recommend these guys... read more

My husband has been taking our cars to JBS for 5+years. Recently we lent one of our cars to our daughter and her family who live in Las Vegas. They took the car to a mechanic for a routine oil change (they have been to that shop prior to this). They were given an estimate for approximately $1500 for "urgent repairs" and even went so far as to tell our daughter that she shouldn't drive my grand daughter around until the repairs are done. My husband was skeptical of the quote due to Jerry having recently done some repair on the same car. His confidence in Jerry led us to making a trip to Vegas to pick up the car and bring it down to Jerry to check out. As predicted. Jerry was honest with us and told us what was necessary and what wasn't. Total cost: just shy of $200. It's so nice to have a mechanic we trust! We recommend JBS to everyone we can!!!! read more

Travis and Chris at JBS are awesome! We have been taking our cars and trucks to them for many years and referred friends. Their honesty, friendly service and reasonable prices make them stand out in this industry. read more

I have used JBS for years Jerry and Frenchie are quality mechanics that get you serviced and back on the road. I recommend them to all my family and friends. Sincerely, Jim Anglin Techstone Inc read more

We bring all of our cars/trucks to JBS and have never had a bad experience. Travis always helps us with our repairs and maintenance and we won't go anywhere else. Very fair pricing and top quality service! read more

Través, help me all the time I need help with my car. He is friendly and very professional. I recommend him and his shop to my friends and family. read more

JBS ROCKS!!! Thanks to all who recommended JBS. My husband called and spoke with Travis and Chris at JBS. They were able to get us in quickly. I needed front and back brakes. Heading home from the Christmas holiday, up in the San Joaquin Valley, my brakes began to grind. They were able to salvage the rotors. The cost was VERY reasonable. I can't say enough about their integrity. Going forward, I won't go anywhere else. Thanks JBS! read more

They are fantastic! They got me in right away for a check engine light issue. They changed my oil, somehow got a tire pressure light to go off that has been on since 2016 that no one else could figure out and THEN diagnosed my car, which they took the liberty to call over to Kia to see if it was under warranty...which it still was! Will definitely come back here 100%!!! A!! read more

I took my Yaris in and Travis and everyone at JBS were very helpful. They were quick, professional, and honest. They fixed my car for a reasonable price and I would definitely recommend them to anyone! read more
