Great shop, excellent service, good prices. You can get the best deal around for oil changes with Groupon.

I bought a Groupon to try this place out for the first time. Oil changes these days can cost an arm and a leg! These guys were Super quick and friendly! I showed up a little late for my appointment, but they still got me in without any hassle. Eveyone super professional, efficient, and made the whole oil change process smooth and stress-free. They had me out of there in just over 30 min! As a busy mom, this is soo much appreciated! They even gave me tips on how to tell when my car needs an oil change and even offered the Groupon rate for the next time without a Groupon! Definitely coming back here next time--highly recommend! Ditch the chains! Support the small local shops! Thank you JT's!! read more

Ladies, I have been bringing my car and my best friends car here for 2 years. I started bringing all my girl friends to JT. I feel like he always explains what is going on with my car in a way that I can understand. I'm able to prioritize what I need done and work around my finances until I can get everything but absolutely needs to be done. When my Fiat was having issues with a code, I took it to two other mechanics who could not diagnose it and one I tried to fix it. They didn't. JT's fix the problem and it has not reoccurred since then. He worked with my insurance, your mercury, and helped me get the work done. When my other friend had a problem with her transmission, she was quoted by one mechanic is it going to cost $700. JT's did it right and we haven't had the issue with the transmission since then and it was less than half. I know every job is different and the needs of the car different. But I feel very comfortable bringing my children here. read more

YES ! I've used JT for several years now. Joe is the best, Very thorough exam of car, good work, no pressure and great pricing.

Honest! I found my new go-to spot. You know when you take your car to get an oil change and you wait for them to come back and say your car is falling apart, just to make money. They don't do that here! read more

I moved to Florida from Ventura county and regularly drive my vehicle back and forth. On my last drive to the west coast I noticed a coolant leak coming from my van. Knowing I had to drive over 2500 miles to get back home to Florida it was very important to have my car running reliability (especially as I'd have to drive through the desert and Texas). I took my vehicle to JT's to have my coolant system fixed and some maintenance items included at the same time, such as a new water pump and timing belt. I got a couple quotes from different shops in the area and JT's was the best price and I had a good feeling about getting the work done There. JT's was also able to work with my very short timeline as I had to make the return trip soon. I picked up the vehicle in the short time frame with no issues. After driving the vehicle around for a couple days around town I wanted him to take a second look at the cooling system, just to make sure everything was in perfect working order. He took the van in immediately and fixed the small issue, which was covered with the warranty he offers. We finished our trip driving across the country and the van ran flawlessly with no issues at all (while pulling a trailer). If you're looking for auto repairs I recommend checking to see what JT's Automotive can do for you. read more

Best deal anywhere on an all synthetic oil change, nice people too. Get Breakfast or lunch a two minute walk from them, during service. ML read more

I'm a little confused as to how this place has four stars, especially after reading some of the negative reviews. Personally, my husband and I opted out of using this business due to the unprofessional inquiry call we made. The person we spoke to on the phone was snippy, sighed loudly at my questions and said he didn't like to waste his time. We're fully aware the work needed is going to cost a couple thousand, so tough luck on him for missing that opportunity. I would suggest using Parra's Auto instead, they have great reviews and were really nice during our inquiry call. read more

JT's Automotive: Good work, fair price, but now I'm missing change? My fiance and I brought in her daily driver with some pretty serious issues (had a short which was causing an engine misfire). Joe was our point of contact and he helped us diagnose what was happening and gave us a $1900 estimate. I, myself, work in the automotive industry and recognized that the estimate for the work we would be getting done seemed reasonable. They ended up needing the car for an entire 3 days (1.5x longer than expected) which was a slight inconvenience but not the end of the world, especially for how helpful Joe had been to us to this point. I like to give my mechanics as much time as they need to ensure that I am not getting a rushed final product. The work done has only been completed for a day so there have been no issues observed after the work they have done as of now. For that we are thankful. My issue arises with the approximately $3 of quarters that have gone missing since we picked up the car as well as a couple of my light gray interior panels that now have a layer of grease on them. To rephrase that, a minimum of 12 quarters have gone missing from my fiance's coin storage. I am by no means accusing Joe of taking them, I just know for certain they were there when we dropped off the car as those quarters get set aside for our laundry. Normally I would remove valuables from my vehicles before taking them to get worked on, but this was an emergency and we just took it straight there not thinking anything of it. My fiance did give the shop a call once we noticed and they let us know that none of the work they do is inside the vehicle. We searched high and low before writing this just to give JT's the benefit of the doubt, but with the bill that we paid, I would expect my change inside our vehicle to not go missing whether it was stolen or simply and innocently knocked out of the car. Aside from this, I am satisfied with their expertise and am grateful that such a significant mechanical problem was taken care of. read more

First off, I'm a single mom whose ex or dad always dealt with maintenance. I know nothing and thought I would be taken advantage of. My entire oil change was 22 dollars and I needed a taillight fixed and they did that on the house! JT is a super nice guy and his worker is super diligent and hard working. You will not be disappointed! My last oil change was like 85 and some change. Same service . read more

Showed up for my oil change appointment that I made a week prior. Shop was closed! Knocked on the door since I saw someone working. Guy opened it, asked if I saw the sign, I said yes, however, I have an oil change scheduled for 3 pm. Guy said there's no way he could do it, since he said he was working on two other vehicles. I told him that was bad business. He said there's nothing he could do, He didn't apologize for the inconvenience. Never going back. read more

Incompetent mechanics, overpriced labor rate, and unprofessional service! I took my car in to get the steering fixed. My car veers to the right when driving. So I asked for a wheel alignment and check out the steering system to see what's wrong. I booked an appointment for Monday, then the job got "done " on a Wednesday despite the owner Joe saying that it's gonna be done the same day. Joe is an outright liar. I asked him on the phone if they do wheel alignments, he said yes but he doesn't actually have a wheel alignment machine in his shop. He just takes it to another shop to get it done, and he marks up the price. He is absolutely unprofessional, takes an average 10 times for me to call before they even answer the phone. They don't check their voicemail and don't even give you a courtesy call back to let you know the estimate and situation of your car. Joe upsells a lot for BS unnecessary service. He said he tested my battery and found it to be a bad battery because the cells wouldn't hold a charge. I took my 1 year old AGM (best type of car battery) to autozone where I bought it from and got it tested for free. The autozone guy showed me the result of the test, it was a good battery! Joe was also trying to upsell me some unnecessary tune up that cost almost $500! What a scam! I had to return my car because the steering didn't get fixed. Then he said the rims and tires where wobbling and needed to get replaced, that's why the steering veered to the right. They never even test drive my car after it was "done", what a scam! Why the heck didn't the mechanic see that the first time around? Because the mechanics are incompetent, I bet they're not even ASE certified mechanics! Just a bunch of amateurs. They charged me $110 for the wheel alignment (only costs $40 at Rudos Tires), their hourly rate for labor is $110/hour which is way overpriced! Never again! Learn from my mistake folks. I'm an honest, hard working, active duty military and they scammed me like this. Joe is like a used car salesman, he loves to talk and act nice but at the same time actually robbing you. A classic conman. I wasted $333 of my hard earned dollars and wasted so much time and hassle of getting a ride because my car was in their shop for 3 days. I took my car to Rudos tires and they fixed the steering problem way cheaper and way faster! Took only about 2 hours. People should not support an unethical car shop like JT's Automotive! I know I will never come back there! See the pictures of my receipt. read more

Took my car here running, no codes and computer was working. Took to drop new engine in car. After new engine was dropped had to go back 4times with additional charges. Truly disappointed 4 k down the drain. Mechanic did not offer any solution or refund to the problem. I had to leave money at the shop to have it towed back to my house after he messed up the computer. I want a refund, reporting to BBB. If no solution, I will be suing They also have complaints with BBB, AND A YOUTUBE VID. DON'T T GO HERE!!!! read more

I originally came here for an oil change from Groupon. The mechanics were friendly, and understanding also the puppy in the shop is super sweet. I knew I was in need of tires but unfortunately it can be very pricy so I haven't gotten around changing them. JT automotive has very reasonable price on tires. My little car drives like a dream with her new tires! I have never had an issue with my service taking too long with either the tire change or the oil change. JT automotive is the place to go! read more

Excellent service for an excellent price! Brought my Altima in for an oil change and was warmly greeted welcomed by Milo. Even though I arrived before they were officially open for business I was offered coffee and pleasant conversation. I was so impressed by JT's Automotive that after my car was done I went home and brought in my wife's car for the same service. During the service of my wife's car they pointed out to me that whoever did my wife's previous oil change used the wrong oil filter, which could have caused extensive mechanical damage had it not been corrected. I'll definitely be taking my vehicles here for now on. read more

I have been going to JTs for my oil changes for a few years now. I've also gotten a couple other things done there. Joe is the most personable dude ever, and it's he's not doing it to swindle you, he's just a great guy. Prices are still as low as he can possibly get them to be. I'm a 23 year old girl and most places try to take advantage of my naivety because I'm not car savvy. The work they do is wonderful, I've never had a problem after bringing my car home from JT's. Thank you Joe for all of the help. I hope you and Chevy and your family are doing well. I'm moving to Florida and wish you the best! -Tori (I gave Chevy the flea bath!) read more

Really nice people and good service! They aren't new and shiny but I would opt for service over style

Bad service, overpriced, they got my car covered in overspray and neglected to clean it. Installed wrong parts and never contacted me about my car after 2 months. Had to go back multiple times after they supposedly fixed it and they never looked at it just parked it outside. Dont waste your time and money read more

I took my car to JT's right before a road trip from SoCal to Oregon. Joe got me in right away, didn't upsell me, repaired what I need repaired, and did so effectively and with efficiency, courtesy. I can make my trip now with a properly functioning a/c, safe brakes, and a new wheel lock, all for less than several online quotes I received for less work! You cannot go wrong here. Get your car to JT's on your next service date. You'll thank yourself and Joe! read more

JT's Automotive was amazing from customer service to the work they did! The owner was very easy to work with communicated effectively. Joe was straight forward honest and made me feel confident that the work they did fixed my vehicle. My vehicle is up and running better than before I would recommend JT's Automotive to friends and family! Thanks Again Joe! read more

JT went above and beyond what no other automotive business in Oxnard would do. No only were they fast and efficient, they were reliable and showed unbelievable amounts of respect. That seems hard to come by nowadays. Thank you for everything you've done. read more

The owner is very nice and autistic friendly towards my son. I will always do business here. Joe is a very honest mechanic which is very unusual. read more

Ive always hopped around from mechanic shop to mechanic shop for oil changes. JT's Automotive is THE FIRST place I've gone back to. They are quick & honest. This is the place to go! read more

Found this place because of Groupon for an oil change and was very satisfied with the friendly, quick, work environment.

JT's Automotive is honest, friendly, prompt and affordable! Joe the owner is the Man and will make sure your vehicle needs are taken care of. He will keep you in the loop of what's going on. I will never take my vehicles anywhere else! It's nice when you find the right people to work on your car and don't have to worry about a thing. I'd give this business 10 stars if I could read more

Terrible place they took parts out of my car and never put them back in, they were probably hoping I wouldn't notice, never go here they are scammers when I went and complained they were the rudest people and just laughed about the whole thing, stay away and save your money plenty other places to go to read more

Joe was extremely helpful giving me the best and worst case scenario for my car repair, ended up being super simple but couldn't of had a better experience would most definitely recommend them to anyone and will be going back there for any of my future repair needs! read more

Very professional company. Great service.....l Love this Company...even let dogs in..Big Dogs...

Never a disappointment in the half dozen times I've taken my vehicles into JT's. Pricing is the best I've come across in the Ventura/Oxnard area. Timing belt change, check engine light diagnostics, and oil changes all 100% satisfaction. My first experience with JT's was because they had a groupon deal for oil changes, now they just give me the groupon rate regardless. read more

Jose is a straight up guy. I always feel a little wary (the stereotype right?) but he takes the time to go over all the options so I never felt uncomfortable or like I wasn't fully informed. The price was lower than I expected and the service was top notch I definitely plan to return and will recommend to friends and family, great place! read more

Jose is great. He brought my truck back to life. What impressed me the most is that he is always looking for the best and most cost effective way to do the job. Plus I trust him, not something you can say about many people in the automotive industry. Very often during the course of the repair Jose will call up and tell me he found a better solution, of he was able to fix something without a new part, costing me less then the estimate. Beware: Jose shares the building with another shop that will try and grab you as you drive in, make sure you go to JT's sign on the right side of the building. read more

Wow! They really helped me out yesterday! This is one place you can bring your car for trusted work. It seemed like they cared about me and my situation. I googled them, and I consider myself lucky to have clicked on the right place randomly! I will recommend and only go back to JTs if I ever need anything. I went to a few other places and they were grumpy jerks where JTs greeted me happily, helped me fast and gave me tips; and I'm just some random joe off the streets! There is NO other place to go! I owe them lunch and a beer! Thanks JT! A-Team read more

I was iffy initially due to a single review from a customer who wrote a bad review but decided to see the place for myself based on the other positive reviews. In short, Jose is knowledgeable, understanding, and supportive. My first time there to get an oil change, they notified me that I should get some work done such as an engine flush, wheel assignment, etc. Obviously I was skeptical but knew my car didn't have any major work on it for a few years. They explained every part to me. They showed me on my car how the wheels were getting worn down. They showed me where my engine oil was starting to change color and walked me through the entire process. They knew it would cost a pretty penny but notified me that the work I get from them has a warranty and should anything not work, to let them know immediately and they will fix it. They also had some discounts they could offer me once I asked. I left with my car a few hours later and loved the experience. They happened to accidentally give me another customer's oil change sticker (the one they put on the window of every car) but that isn't a big deal. It was really busy that day. I've been there once more and will continue to go there so long as I work in Oxnard. read more
