JD Addison Auto Repair

My Grandfather introduced me to John’s business a few years ago. Being a younger woman it’s sad to say that any time I needed repairs on a vehicle I was told there was 10 other things wrong with it in a ploy to try to get more money off me. But with John that’s not the case he’s honest and trustworthy-​traits that are hard to find nowadays. Living on my own anytime I needed repairs I would drive to Palatine and need to take the train back to where I live in Des Plaines, John was kind enough to pick me up from the train station and drive back to his shop. I have had 3 cars in the time I have known him and he’s always able to fix things up or me and keep it running for as long as it can. Without his help I wouldn’t have a car and would be walking all over the place! Thanks John, for doing a great job every time and always being honest. You’re a godsend :)

I have using John for 15 or more years, can’t go wrong here, very good mechanic and very reasonable prices and will only do the work that needs to be done, no sales pitch, good work at a very fair price

John, is a great mechanic and a very honest person. I won’t take our cars anywhere else. Great service, quick turnaround, honest and always accommodating. He won’t let you waste money on things you don’t need. We have been taking our cars there for a couple of years now and have recommended him to family and friends.

I have got my car repaired multiple times, service is awesome. Best part is honesty and the quality of work. I would recommend him over every other shops. Best guy in the business.

John «the mechanic» is an amazing guy.
Fair, honest and only does what you ask him to do.
No funny business, no crazy ideas about flushing transmission fluids.
QUICK turnaround. If you schedule to bring it in in the morning, he has it fixed, if it’s simple enough, by the afternoon.
Great service and a great guy. 5 Stars for an honest mechanic any day.
