I brought my 2004 Toyota Camry into JBS Auto Services with a whole lot of issues (noises in the AC unit, smelling gasoline after turning off engine, check engine light on, hesitation when accelerating, etc). I had been putting off taking it to a shop because I'm so horrified of being ripped of since I don't know anything about cars. But I'm so happy I found out about JBS and brought it to them. Chris was super nice and understanding with me while I explained to him all the issues. He was able to give me an estimate in a few hours that was actually a lot less than I was anticipating. He explained what my car needed and why without overwhelming me with too much information that I wouldn't understand. He also explained what I needed to have fixed ASAP and what issues could wait a little bit. I was going to have to leave my car there over the weekend and he offered to meet me there on his day off to get me my car back after it was fixed so I wouldn't haven't to go without a car the whole weekend. Then, to my surprise he made sure my car was done early for me on Friday right before they closed for the weekend. I really appreciated the fast and professional service and never plan on taking my car anywhere else. It's running great again and I feel safe on the road knowing I put my car in the right hands. Thanks guys! read more

Best diesel tech in town. I have a fleet of work trucks (dodge, ford, and Chevy) and JBS services them all. From oil changes to repairs they are the only ones I trust. read more

I have a Acura MDX and have taken it to the TO Acura dealership ever since I bought it. I developed and under-carriage wind rattle noise that drove me crazy. I asked the dealership for a year and a half every time I took my car in for general maintenance to find the problem and they told me every time they could not figure it out. I finally said screw them and looked in Simi and found JBS. One visit this week to JBS and problem solved and they did not charge me for fixing the problem. Additionally, they did a A1 service and it was half the cost of the dealership. This is a real garage full of real mechanics. Thank you Chris at the front desk. I cant tell you how glad I am I decided to go to you guys! Cameron read more

Best diesel shop in the area. On a busy Friday they were able to get my truck in and done. Extremely knowledgeable group of mechanics. Travis even spent a lot of time going over the design of the 6.0 motor and what I can expect to fix/maintain in the future. Nice to find a mechanic you can trust nowadays! Thank you guys! read more

Took my husband's work truck in for brakes. Expected upon pickup to pay for a brake job. Didn't need it. Dust. No charge. An honest man with integrity. read more

So a couple days ago i asked for a recommendation on an honest and trustworthy mechanic & you guys recommended JBS. They were just the crew I needed after 3 bad experiences with other shops. Chris from JBS helped me and made everything understandable to a WOMAN lol everything from the work, the parts, and everything else in between that i was clueless about. From the start, I knew my car would be in great hands because they seemed passionate about their job. Although their customer satisfaction was very reassuring, I left thinking I'd need a new alternator along with new sparkplugs (Not so great for my wallet). But after my car was (thoroughly) reviewed, they let me know I'd only need new sparkplugs, as my alternator was ok! Unfortunately, mishaps do happen and throughout the process of returning my alternator, a small fuze blew. This maybe upsetting but chris was honest about it and handled it well! Not only did they replace the broken fuze FREE OF CHARGE, they also found the right problem (which 3 other shops couldn't). Although this was a 2 day job (ordering the parts) and the time he spend trying to find the problem, Chris didn't give up! I payed only for my new sparkplug, no labor cost (they took hours trying to figure out the problem)! Not only was car happy but my wallet was too! So in the end JBS will now be my go-to shop as I feel I can truly trust the service and know I will be getting my money's worth! The guys were super nice and honest. Chris didn't give up, he was determined to find out what was wrong and I'm so glad he did because as a single parent of 3 kids I NEED a car i can depend on 24/7. read more

First off, Jerry seems to do good work, and also seems to be an honest mechanic, which can be hard to find. He did not do the oil change I asked him to do, but that wasn't a huge deal. As I was checking out, I showed them the 10% off for new customers offer, and his worker said he's never seen it. He sent it to Jerry via text and Jerry said he's never seen it, but would call me and offer me a refund if necessary. No call, so I called back a week later, and he's nowhere to be found. I called Yelp and they said that Jerry put this offer on his site, with his company email address, about 5 years ago. If you don't want to extend this offer, just take it down. read more

I recently bought a used Infinity G37 and brought it here to have inspected. A month or two later I brought it in for some noise in the suspension. They checked it out and tightened some bolts, which fixed the issue. They didn't try to sell me any parts or services I didn't need. In fact, they didn't even charge me for the visit. I will definitely be bringing my car back for all it's services. read more

At first great customer service for a check engine light that came on and it was taken care of, so I thought. Light came on again and same story probably about 8 times. I bring my truck to Jerry and its always "im swamped". I dont care! Then hire someone else. I spent over $500 the light still comes on and then im treated like he doesn't have time for me. Im fed up and bringing my truck somewhere else. Im going to just eat the $500. I feel like I already have in time and fuel. Do not go here!!!! read more

New fuel pump installed so fast I couldn't believe it. Excellent 5 star service. I wish I could give them 10 stars. Very nice people honest and polite and accommodating. read more

My wife's 04 Ford Taurus was having problems starting- she was having to keep the starter going for 10-15 seconds before it would fire. One morning it wouldn't start, so I put it on my home changer and after a few hours when fully charged it worked fine- sort of- because she had to crank the starter for a long time - 10-15 seconds - to get it to start. I know how to work on cars and I take care of my own OLD cars and race cars but I don't like working on new cars. I figured it was going to need new coils, fuel pump or something $$$. A few days later it was dead and wouldn't even jump start. Knowing it had an issue and it was probably more than I could diagnose I had been looking for a new place to get it repaired- using Yelp. Biased on the good reviews on Yelp I decided on JBS Auto Service in Simi Valley. AAA took it over and dropped it off in the early evening and we left a note and keys in mailbox. First thing next am. I get a call from Jerry. We discussed my car and he pointed out the fact that the battery was over 6 years old and wasn't really holding a charge. I asked him to put a battery in it so he quoted me a good price and I had him do it. - because I know you can't diagnose electrical issues with a low/dead batt. An hour or so later the phone rings. it's Jerry informing me that he thinks it's the starter and that even though the starter turns its not going fast enough. OK??? I think- I have never heard of that before. Jerry quoted me a very reasonable price so I had him do it. Another hour or so later Jerry calls me back and says "It's fixed" went in to fetch it and it was fixed just like new. I'm very happy to have found this folks and will use them next time I need auto repair or maintenance. read more

Best shop I know of in my area. Wouldn't take my car anyone else. Travis has been helping me for years now and it's sad to see Jerry leave but the guys that are there are amazing. They grind 110 percent and you can see it in their work. Great, trustworthy dudes that are honest and straight up. Thanks for keeping care of the 03 E40 and thanks for bearing with it! read more

Jerry fixed my truck the same day I took it in, it needed an injector , on a ford diesel truck. In and out the day is impressive

Fair, honest and trustworthy. I can in with a brake issue and thought I needed new brakes. After checking the brakes was told nope they just need cleaning cost 1/4 of what I was expecting. I have been ripped off before at other places but that won't happen here. I highly recommend Jerry at JBS! read more

JBS and the crew are absolutely the best. As honest as you can ever imagine for a mechanic. Jerry's like the trusted friend who won't screw you over like the car manufacturer owned shops. Have gone there about 6 or 7 times and it's been a pleasant experience each and every time. Literally takes the stress out of servicing your car! read more

JBS is amazing!  2013 Ram 3500 fuel filters replaced while I waited. Another local shop was worried about breaking the filter casing and wanted to charge $1000 to replace!  Travis and the rest of the team are kind, caring, and professional. They went above and beyond to help. Will definitely go back! read more

a huge shout out to Jerry and Team JBS. You were there when I needed you the most. Both of my family cars decided to die within 24 hours of each other. You were a blast to work with, you were amazing with diagnosing all the issues with our poor sick cars, and you all made time for us. You helped my family get back onto the road, with the least amount of stress as possible. You even came out to my work to continue to care for my sick car and took it back to the shop for continued care. I can't tell you how much this means to us. Thank you so much for all you have done. read more

JBS gets all my auto care business. He is honest, reliable and fast. No up-selling or trying to sell services that you don't need. I always know that I can trust Jerry. I've even referred my mother to JBS. I know that she will be in good hands. Absolutely the best mechanic is all of Simi Valley. Go see Jerry. You'll be glad you did. He's a nice guy too. He truly cares about his customers. He wants to see them happy when they drive off in a fixed vehicle.He has been in Simi for 3 decades. The guy knows his stuff!! Go see Jerry at JBS! read more

My husband has been a customer of Jerrys for quite a while so when my moms car had been in and out of the shop and she kept paying only to have it break again I told her to go to JBS. We had her car towed to his shop and it was fixed in no time at all. After paying $1000 three different times at a different shop JBS was able to fix it the first go around. Honest, good work, price is great and he's a nice guy. I am a customer for life. :) read more

Had a great experience with Jerry today. While I didn't end up taking in my vehicle, he helped me out "over the phone" with a very simple issue and was glad to do so. He could have been like many others and said "just bring it in" but his willingness to answer a simple question, to me, really speaks to his character. I will certainly be calling on him in the future to handle vehicle repairs that are out of my comfort zone! read more

My son brought in his car for an alignment and oil change; job was done quickly for a great deal. Another life long customer! We are always happy to keep our business local :) Thank you JBS!!! read more

This repair shop was recommended by the tow truck driver who picked me up after my Jeep wouldn't start. I'm thankful I listened to his recommendation because these guys were able to get my Jeep running and back on the road again after only a few minutes. They knew what they were doing and were able to explain to me how the start process worked. It also looks like they have experience in trucks. Well deserved 5 stars. read more

Checked Yelp for a decent place to replace a Drive Belt and do transmission service. Called JBS and spoke to Jerry in the morning. He called me back with a quote for the job which was a better deal than 3 other places which included the local dealership which is where we have been servicing the car. We took it in less than an hour after I spoke to him and the job was done less then 3 hours later. Efficient and cost effective, we will certainly return there for future service on this and perhaps our other autos. read more

I've been going to Jerry for almost 10 years and I keep going back because I know he's going to give me the right job at the right price. He's great about explaining things to me so that I can understand what kind of work my car needs and he is really up front about what needs to be done ASAP and what can wait so I can know my car is safe but I don't have to destroy my budget every time me car does something weird. It's just really nice to know I'm not being taken advantage of and that he cares about my safety and the safety of my family. Not always the least expensive place but the highest quality work and parts and a really skilled mechanic. I recommend him to everyone I know all the time and my friends that have used him keep going back, too! read more

Jerry at Jbs is a very knowledgeable shop here in Simi Valley.They can fix your car in very little time and get you back up on the road safely. read more

Jerry has taken care of my cars for the last fifteen years. He is honest and fair with his pricing. I would not use any other mechanic.

I've been taking my diesel truck to JBS in Simi Valley since I purchased it new 15 years ago. Jerry is stellar at keeping my truck out of his shop with major repairs, and for that reason I think he's tops in Simi Valley! By the way, my truck has almost 300,000 trouble-free miles. I truly believe that Jerry and Frenchie are responsible for that! read more

Chris and Travis at JBS Auto are the best! I recently brought my Dodge Challenger into them for some major work and they exceeded my expectations. They knew how much this car means me and they did an amazing job fixing her. Thank you so much for fixing My Baby! I would recommend them to everyone. read more

Great job and honest service. I thought all motor mounts needed to be replaced but Jerry told me only 2 were bad. Saved me half the cost when he didn't have to. He even worked on a Sunday when the dealership sent the wrong part. I'm a customer for life! read more

Jerry has always treated me fairly, and gets the job done right at a reasonable price in a timely manner! There's a reason why JBS is always busy - Honesty and integrity are at the highest level here, and you won't be disappointed with their service level. Don't hesitate to give JBS a try! read more

Jerry is a jewel in the Simi Community. His services in auto are superior, he is friendly and fair, and gives so much to the community, so when you have work done with him, know you are contributing to your community as well by helping the underprivileged kids, to seniors and low income folks who need help. Jerry is alway there. He is constantly busy which is a sign of how many loyal customers he has, and then he goes out of his way to teach automotive repair to men and women . Highly recommend JBS Auto to anyone with a car. read more

Excellent and prompt service. Very friendly staff and high quality work. My new favorite auto repair shop!

JBS Auto is the ONLY auto repair shop our family & friends use. From minor repairs to major ones, Jerry & Frenchie do excellent work at very fair prices! The car is always ready when they say it will be or they update us. Honest, fair, quality work. Can't recommend them enough! Wish there were more than 5 stars to give them! read more

Jerry at JBS Auto is hands down a great mechanic! I had completely given up on my truck (as it has over 200,000 miles on it) and was thinking I was going to have to buy a new vehicle......especially since others had misdiagnosed it and told me I should part ways with it due to all the miles. Well, Jerry saved the day! Jerry knew exactly what was causing the misfire and had me back on the road within a day! My truck is running strong and smooth even with all those miles on it. I couldn't be more happier and thankful to Jerry for his thorough and honest work. If you are looking for a good knowledgeable mechanic you can trust, JBS Auto is the place. read more

Jerry is the best, most honest mechanic I've met... knows his stuff, and doesn't push you into unnecessary stuff you don't need. He's always busy, but always finds time. I have an old car, but he keeps it running. Highly recommend JBS!!! read more
