Jose’s Auto Electric

called Jose to come and look at a 2000 ford expedition that had an electrical problem, he said will be there at 4:00 pm, did not show, called him again and he apologized for no show and promised to be there first thing in the morning, he sowed up at 1:30 pm and worked on it for one hour, then he said he have to go do another job and will be back later, and never showed up, I guess he couldn’t figuer out what was wrong and instead of saying the truth he left and did not come back… he is not reliable, and not honest…

Jose really is as good as it gets when it comes to honest repairs. These days, there are so many disreputable service entities, that one has to count themselves as truly blessed when finally encountering a straight-​up, honest guy like Jose.

My car has a history of battery eating. Yes, it is an ’07 Honda Pilot and it has had 4 batteries. The good folks at Pep Boys referred me to «Johns» Auto Electric. Maybe I misunderstood but it turned out to be Jose’s. So glad I found them. They worked hard to diagnose the issue and it turned out that when my key stays in the ignition (no, not turned on), it drains the battery. I wish I had come to them sooner! Who knew? I have ruined several batteries and my alternator. I appreciated the fact that after they put new parts in they showed them to me and when we were leaving, Jose himself was sweeping up. He is a hardworking, honest man… easy to see that. He thanked me for my business and we will be back soon to get my husband’s water pump replaced in his Dodge.

Jose is my mechanic. He’s extremely honest, friendly and extremely flexible. I’ve gone to him for a variety of issues (fuel pump, check-​engine lights, tune-​ups, etc).
The best experience was the other night when I had to get towed at 9pm on Thursday night. Amazingly, he was still at the shop being visited by his two little daughters and took my car right in — all I had to do was call. He also introduced me to his kids and now I feel like I’m family.
I believe he’s an honest mechanic because when ever possible he asks me to order the parts. He finds the parts either online or tells me where to go. This sounds like a hassle but you know he’s not making a 40% mark-​up on the parts and he gives you your failed parts after every job.
And, of course, he’s inexpensive. For a fuel pump the dealership wanted $ 1100, Jose did the job for $ 500 ($ 350 of which was the part, he only got $ 150 in the deal). I bet Bob Baker himself would have made $ 150 on my new $ 1100 fuel pump.
