I have been taking my car to J & S for awhile now… Anything from oil changes to electrical issues to engine problems. It’s an older Saab, going on 15 years old, so of course things pop up sporadically. Everyone at J & S is very friendly and helpful. They have quickly solved all the issues at a very reasonable price. They are certainly not scammers as other people have accused them of… I’m very happy with them, they are very convenient to anyone in the Gunbarrel area, and they don’t try to sell you on extra work. They’ll let you know if something needs to be watched, but they’re honest and not pushy at all.

Caught in an outright LIE! I have the paperwork to prove it. After my engine light came on and they charged over $ 800 worth of work my engine light was back on in a couple of days. They said I needed another $ 500+ of work done to fix the issue. In my first work order email they said they replaced my gas cap (common source of the issue) and still had issues, hence the $ 800+ of needless work. Turns out that was a lie and when caught in the act the owner Craig chose not to respond to my emails after requesting the notes from the mechanics themselves he said he had. Turns out after all my money spent all it took was a $ 5 gas cap and changing my car to mid-​grade gas. BEWARE! I can not say I have ever been scammed so blatantly!

Wow we are very appreciative of Craig and Donna who have given our cars great service for over 10 years. Even though we moved to Broomfield a year ago, we’ve tried other places but when you get used to working with great people we think its worth it to drive a bit farther to Gunbarrel.
Thank
Folks

Bad Business, went in and needed some work. They charged me $ 125 just to check out my car. Paid for a brake inspection of which they told me they were fine and took car for a second opinion and found they are actually needing replaced fairly urgently. They never took my wheel off to look at my brakes and charged for an inspection. Lame service. Never met my mechanic, only get to talk with the from desk. Also they told me I needed a transmission flush, I had a new transmission a year before and when I had the second opinion the mechanic showed me how clean the fluid was and that it was full. They tried to get me for a $ 200 service that I didn’t need. My new mechanic would never charge for a vehicle inspection. Lame Lame Lame…

Went in and walked out with a laundry list of up repairs after paying them for a quote. I was desperate to get my check engine light off so I did the first repair: replace intake manifold gaskets. I shelled out $ 350 bucks and after they told me they were very confident that was the trigger to the problem.
After that work, light was back on within 24 hours. I went back and they said my sensor had dust and hair on it and if it comes back on the sensor will need to be replaced. Next day, back on. I took it to another mechanic and said if that was the issue it was a 100 job, not the 400 they quoted me.
After he took a closer look at my car, the overall issue was that my SPARK PLUGS were severely burnt out. According to my other mechanic, thats the first thing they should have checked upon inspection. He did the work and my car is running great.
Additionally, the mechanics were very polite, but the lady behind the front desk was a bit condescending and was not very pleasant.
Should have known better to trust reviews over connivence.
I wont be returning.

Had a flat a few months back and they where the only automotive place within walking distance. Sold me a tire for $ 180 not giving me any choices, I had realized when I got home that I didn’t want to pay that much for one tire. Went back the next day and asked for another one. After arguing with the desk lady about her not giving me a choice and her saying I didn’t ask for one (customer is always right?) I got them to take back the tire for a new one for $ 135. After they put the new tire on they gave me the bill with fees and all $ 160.
Not a very reputiable business in my opinion, Gunbarrel residents are better off going to a place in Boulder or Longmont. I’d sooner walk on my bare knees in 3 feet of snow than give them any of my business ever again.
