John Chaks Automotive

"Honest mechanic.....weird!!! Don't find many honest auto shops! They are a little high but you get what you pay for!!!! They are PROS! They stand behind their work. Top shop in North Texas. We go back as needed. Thanks Tyler and of course Mr Chak!!!!"

"I brought my car there for servicing twice. They did good work, and in a timely fashion. I'm sure there are cheaper mechanics somewhere, but I don't think I can better or faster. I need my car for work. And "time is money"."

"The best mechanic shop hands down. Knowledgeable, competent, caring, hardworking, humans that do what they can to take care of you and fix your issue. We go there for all of our mechanical needs, and when not in town we call them for over the phone help. Can’t rate these guys high enough!! For the last six - eight years we have taken various vehicles to them for anything from brakes, to axles, to transmissions, as well as software updates. Always great service and fair prices"

"5 Stars!! John Chak Automotive did amazing work on my older SUV (having lived on the West Coast for several decades, my ‘04 had no rust, so it was worth putting in the required repairs & maintenance). Initially, I had two other mechanics look at my car and one wanted $2,700 just for the AC/heat repair! Mine needed that and balljoints & arms replaced + few more issues so the total spent was $5K but was very fair and included a 24 month or 24K miles warranty on the work completed. JCA are the first mechanics I’ve ever dealt with that included in the diagnosis, mphotos of every issue + returned the old parts to me. As it turns out, the previous mechanic in another state didn’t perform most of the work of which I paid over $2500; he hasn’t returned my four phone calls and three email inquiries for copies of my invoices, most of which were paid by cash. . .things that make ya go “hmmmm”…. Everybody at John Chak Automotive is professional, efficient and friendly. I dealt with Tyler the most - 5 Stars, too! - and they performed the needed repairs in a timely manner. I am somewhat reluctant to refer businesses to others, unless I am very confident those seeking referrals will have a similar good experience, and I am truly happy to refer JCA to anyone seeking a reliable, fair and professional service establishment that operates with integrity and courtesy - that is John Chak Automotive! Thank you all for getting me on the road again."

"I took my 2016 Dodge Journey in because of an engine noise that can clearly be heard driving the vehicle. I was told by another mechanic that it could be an axle issue without looking or hearing the engine and he could not fix my vehicle at the time. I took it to John Chaks which I received a call about an hour after dropping it off. They said there was no noise, I was taking back by the comment. I said it clearly was making a noise. They said they would look at it again. I got a call about three hours later stating the noise was from the transmission mount and they had replaced. They also stated my oil pan was damaged and needed replaced along with spark plugs giving me a total of $1500 to fix everything. I just paid the $550 for replacing the mount and got my vehicle back. They did not fix the noise problem just dampened it, failed to find the real problem, and the noise came back 5 days after “repair”. I also retained the transmission mount they removed from the vehicle. Same mechanic friend replaced motor mounts and transmission mount 2 months prior to John Chaks and I had an oil change 3 weeks before John Chaks. Mechanic friend said there was nothing wrong with transmission mount and found a crack in the manifold. The oil pan was not damaged, it was leaking from adhesive failure. I will not be using John Chaks again and I would not suggest them. Honest and fair is what I wrote about. Your mechanic said DAMAGED oil pan, the car was not fixed and I was told it was still making the noise but it was way less than it was before. Hence still a problem but we’re not going to find out why. You solved nothing and cost me money, that’s honest."
