If you need work done on your vehicle, don't bother stopping here! I made an appointment a few…read moreyears ago and vowed to never return. I made the appointment a week in advance, took a day off from work, and when I showed up, there was a sign on the door stating "On vacation. Be back next week." He never even called to cancel the appointment. My fiancé recently needed work done on her vehicle. She said she was calling J&K. I told her about my bad experience but she said some friends at work said he was good and reasonably priced, and made an appointment. She made an appointment for early morning. He said "you're 1st on the book for that day" When she arrived, he said "it will be a while before I'll get to your car. There's 1 ahead of you." Mind you, she was originally told she was the 1st one on the book for the day, and she made the appointment 2 weeks prior. She didn't have a ride home to wait so she said she'd drive the car home, we live a mile away from the shop, and to call her when he was ready to work on her car. We still haven't received the call. 3 weeks later. J&K is apparently not in the business to do business.

Outstanding Service at J & D Auto in Lawson…read more We were two hours from home and in the middle of purchasing a used vehicle when we realized we needed a pre‑purchase multi‑point inspection. We called J & D Auto not expecting much--certainly not same‑day or next‑day availability. Instead, they went above and beyond. They were incredibly accommodating and made time for us first thing the next business day. They understood we were out of town, didn't know anyone in the area, and were trying to make a smart, safe decision. From the moment we arrived, they treated us as if we'd been loyal customers for years. Their professionalism, honesty, and willingness to help made a stressful situation feel easy and supported. It's rare to find a shop that combines technical expertise with this level of genuine care, but J & D Auto absolutely delivered. Highly recommend them to anyone--local or not--who wants trustworthy, top‑tier service.

Small town place, friendly people, fast service, open after five…read more My husband and I were driving on the 35 S from Minneapolis to Tulsa when we stopped to get gas in Holt, MO. Our tire went flat in a matter of minutes while filling the tank. It was super cold and snowy, which is a terrible circumstance for car trouble when your nearest family member is four hours away... I found J & D's on Yelp, called them and they said to come on over. We filled the tank with air and made it there without problems. The address on Yelp was outdated, so we had to call for directions. When we got there, they were able to get us in immediately and patched our tire in about 40 minutes (had to work around an icy tire). The lady at the desk was so nice and talked to us while we waited. All in all the patch was only $18 an we were on our way, only delayed from our destination an hour. They don't take credit card. Luckily we had cash, but there's an ATM across the street. They also have storage units and next door is a cute candy shop. All in all a positive experience. (Their new address is: 204 W. 6th, Lawson, MO)

they are not an honest shop. They took advantage of a coworker.. they replaced a thermostat housing…read moreafter I sent just the thermostat . He could have just swapped them but instead decided to order a whole new one. The car was in for over heating and he said he pressure tested it.. there is no way because the water outlet housing was cracked all the way up and through on both lines . coolant would have been spraying everywhere or blown them apart.. the hoses were soft and needed replaced. I called to discuss the bill and he got mad and started trying to add more .. he said he didn't charge for the thermostat housing that was gonna be another 60$.. I told him no you will get it back we put a stainless aftermarket thermostat housing on and a stainless water outlet housing on and replaced hoses . The turbo had NOTHING to do with the car overheating!!! Yet he charged 135$ for a turbo kit and 400$ for turbo labor when a simple basic pressure test on the coolant would have exposed the leak.... You could smell the antifreeze and see the leak! Anyways she paid 772.55$ for NOTHING a thermostat housing she didn't need.. the antifreeze and a turbo kit that I'd love to see receipts on... because it's not there.. I looked .. she has a car that still overheated... he fixed nothing and him and the lady cussed us out when we questioned the bill and work.. it was leaking this bad when she took the car in.. I have before and after pics of the car..
