Kind Words From Our Customers

First time coming in since it became Johnny’s, I was blown away. Attention to detail, care for there customers, and staff is off the charts!

Alex L

I was very impressed with how professional Johnny’s Automotive was with communication, fair pricing and even leaving a rose on my dashboard when I got back in my car! Dayna was very professional and great at letting me know what was going on and they finished earlier than planned and the cost was less than I thought it would be. Highly recommend! Oh, and their office is adorably decorated too! Love it.

Layna Claunch

I’ve always heard positive words about all of the Johnny’s Automotives. Each location is great. So when the flex plate in our Acadia decided it had enough, I insisted calling Johnny’s. Joel was very professional and knowledgeable and is the reason our SUV is in your shop. My father in law and husband just said that when they dropped the Acadia off you guys were more than excellent, professional and very nice. The loaner car was the icing on the top. If it hadn’t been for that, my father in law w

Johnny’s Automotive did a great job fixing a coolant issue on my truck. They quickly diagnosed the problem, explained what was going on in a way that made sense, and got the repair done right the first time. The service was honest, professional, and fairly priced. My truck is running perfectly now, and I couldn’t be happier. I highly recommend Johnny’s Automotive to anyone looking for reliable and trustworthy auto repair.

Ernsot Sultan

They are amazing! The customer service is wonderful. They do things in a very timely fashion. They are very thorough and explain everything in terms you can understand. I highly recommend this company to work on your vehicle. If you live in frostproof, it’s literally right in town. I was able to call and get service done same day that might not always be the case, but it was for me. A good outstanding company. I recommend this auto shop 10 times over. They worked with me on price gave me a fai

Beka Titus

Couldn’t have asked for a better experience today. They got me in last minute for an oil change and went above and beyond to help me with some other issues i was having. ‘ll be making the commute from st pete to give my business to these great friendly people in the future!

stephanie glausser

Oil change appointment went well. Started within 5 minutes of the appointment time. Even said hi to my golden retriever. Another time I had a slow leak on a tire. Dealer wouldn’t repair it even thogh it wasn’t on the sidewall but in the tread. Elrod fixed it without an appointment. After it was fixed and I paid the bill I offered $10 cash tip to the actual mechanic but I didn’t have cash and said I will be back. I came back with the cash 2 days later after I finally went to the ATM. It

Judgment Center

I had a flat tire in frostproof and had the pleasure of meeting the new owners. They were so kind and friendly and helped me put my spare on and called around to get me a good price on the tire I needed. I would highly recommend this shop and if I ever get another flat in the future I can only hope that I have another shop nearby as amazing as this one.

Timothy Hoover

Excellent service! I had an issue with my vehicle and called Johnny’s. I was able to get an appointment the very next day. They quickly diagnosed the problem, fixed it, and had me in and out in a reasonable amount of time. The customer service was outstanding! I also loved seeing the rose on the dashboard after my service—such a lovely and thoughtful touch. I’ll definitely be back! –

Erica Eason

Had my first appointment at Johnny’s Automotive in Haines City on 2 Dec. All the positive reviews I’ve read and a few of my neighbors were accurate. It’s a great place to bring your car for either service or repairs. When I walked in the door you were greeted right away and asked for details of your appointment. The service rep had me finished with the paperwork and my car driven in the garage. I was a waiter there and the area was just fantastic. Plenty of seating available and the detail

Don Matthews

Mike and Gary are so service oriented and informative about why they do what they do! Very personable and reassuring about services and pricing and levels of protection provided by their servicing. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND JOHNNY’s Automotive for all your car needs.

William Boyer

These people are Godsent🤩Just Superior! These people are so genuine, caring and honest. I received the best quality oil change, low prices, and I left with a rose! And a smile on my face. They filled my heart with their kindness and generosity because I work with a young man with special needs and he loves this place!! I simply ask for a card with their business name on it and They went above & beyond to even give me a t-shirt for him! They made his birthday and Christmas and the beautifu

Heather Davidson

Called Johnny’s Automotive to have my A/C serviced since it was blowing hot air. They were able to schedule an appointment the following afternoon. The following day, my car was ready and the A/C was blowing cold; however, since all of the coolant had leaked out, it is assumed there is a leak somewhere in the system. They added dye and told me to come back after about a week so they could check the system again and hopefully locate the leak, free of charge. I will follow up with that. Great se

Lisa

I cannot express the level of excellence this Automotive Shop has given me and my family. They went above and beyond for us and I will be forever grateful 🙏 I highly recommend them for your Automotive needs. Trust, Integrity and absolute ethical way of doing business. Amazing management. But most of all they care 💯 and to me that’s everything.

Joley Robinson

Professionalism from the start, great communication, and quick delivery time. I took my vehicle to Johnny’s Automotive for what I thought was an AC problem, but they quickly found it was actually an overheating issue and an oil leak. Before coming here, I was scammed by Agua Wash and Lube, who falsely claimed my AC was recharged and had a leak. Just two hours later, the same issue came back. Johnny’s team found the freon was low and diagnosed the real problem with honesty and care. This is a

A life-long local resident recommended this specific shop for my vehicle as I just moved to Lake Wales Not familiar yet with providers of auto repair services. Towed my 20 yr old SUV here and was diagnosed a new Starter to get vehicle running and cured. Their courtesy shuttle took me home and picked me up before noon the next day. They found the new part and was installed within 24 hours! Five Stars experience I received So grateful.

Michael John

I cannot say enough about the service of Johnnys Automotive in Lake Wales. I was traveling through to go to Tampa for a meeting when my car broke down. I literally could not drive it and barely got it into a parking spot. AAA recommended them and I’m so glad they did. I ended up renting a car to get to my meeting and then back home again which is 2 hours from Lake Wales. They gave me a written estimate that was fair, honest and explained everything to me. They did their very best to get me

Dawn Wayland

First time here for an oil change and I was treated like a VIP! Easy online appointment, warm welcome, genuinely nice staff, great location, and they even left flowers on my dashboard! So thoughtful!! I’ll definitely be back. Thank you so much!!

Minako Williams

My father and I have received fair, honest, timely and very professional auto care on our vehicles from everyone on the team at this family-owned business in Frostproof. They are always working as fast as they can because their reputation is well known. We sure appreciate this terrific local business!

Arrin Brunson

Johnny’s Automotive rescued us yesterday. Our car was acting up and we took it to our old mechanic Z they couldn’t get us in until next week. Not good ! My son has to use the car to go to work. We can’t be without our vehicle. So we called around and found Johnny’s. They got us in right away. After a short time they came in and gave us a diagnosis. They were very honest and straight forward. They didn’t make up anything extra that was wrong. The place was clean and smelled amazing! The

Great service! Did a great job last week fixing my Lincoln Town Car’s window regulator!! Very happy customer and highly recommend! 5 stars

Brendan

After an accident that totaled her vehicle, I bought a used car in Indiana and delivered it to my daughter who goes to school in Lake Wales, Florida. I had some issues on the way I had them inspected. They found several things that needed to be corrected immediately, including brakes and transmission fluid and a new alternator. He showed me everything they were going to replace via pictures. Repairs were done in a day. They even stayed over to make sure the repairs were done to my satisfaction.

Terry Hunt

Marty and his team replaced my motor and took extra steps to make sure everything was done right and I greatly appreciate it. Thanks guys!!

barry wylie

This place is top notch. The front desk is very professional. They diagnosed my issue quickly. Gave me a quote. Finished the job quickly. We had to wait as we didn’t have a ride it was comfortable. They have a full blown complementary snack bar, big screen tv, comfy chairs. The part on my car that broke was changed just a year ago, he explained it was likely aftermarket and that happens, but they don’t use aftermarket. And when I paid my bill I was told it was warrantied for three years. I w

David Moranski

I was literally praying over where to take my 2020 Volskwagen Jetta because of some lights on my dashboard. Didn’t want to take it to the VW since it’s too expensive and didn’t have good experiences in the past with other mechanics. If I could give 6 stars to Johnny’s Autmotive staff, I would. As an almost 30 years old female who doesn’t know anything about cars, I felt secure, respected and overall, the problem the sensors had, was taken care of. They left two roses on my car, one the

Valentina Ramirez

They’ve changed the tires on my car twice and done an alignment once. I’ve had excellent customer service both times. The first time they really bent over backwards to get my tire changed on July 3rd before the holiday weekend and I could not have been happier. Also it’s super cute inside the office if you haven’t gone go get a service done and wait inside, it’s so cute. They even have an oldies movie playing. So far my experiences with them have been top tier all the way. Oh and there were ros

Sharia (All Over You Designs)

Thank you for the clarification! Here’s the revised formal version, accurately reflecting that they performed a detailed diagnosis but did not complete the repair the same day: ⸻ I would like to extend my sincere thanks to Johnney’s Automotive Country Club for their exceptional professionalism and hospitality during my recent visit. After using ChatGPT to help identify a potential issue with my sister’s 2009 Honda Accord, we decided to stop by the shop without an appointment, hoping fo

Hellbent444

New to the area, so after reading Google reviews, i went to Johnny’s with some dashboard lights on. They were very courteous and friendly and once they ran the diagnostic tests explained the issues that were found. The waiting room is comfortable, clean and well stocked. They sent me home and when my car was ready the next day they had me picked up. My car is running like new. Will not hesitate returning for any other issues that may pop up and I highly recommend their service.

Ann Formentin

Had my first oil change at Johnny’s Automotive on Dundee Road in Winter Haven, and it was a great experience! The waiting area was clean and comfortable with updated magazines, free snacks, and water. The staff was friendly, upfront about pricing, and service was fast. I even left with a flower in my car—such a thoughtful touch! I’ll definitely be returning for regular maintenance.

Shaneka Brown

I was completely impressed. This is the first time I’ve used Johnny’s automotive in Winter Haven and MJ, the gentleman that answers the phone and does the service writing was extremely kind, polite, and answered all the questions that I had. I dropped my car off to have the air conditioner recharged, and he was just as pleasant in person. Their waiting area/office and shop are all very clean and welcoming. When I came back to pick it up, he let me know there were free snacks, and beverages

Carloyn Gedenberg

I called around trying to get quotes for a transmission service. MJ answered my call, helped me with a quote. I decided to go with them and let me tell you I’m very satisfied. From the cleanliness of the lobby area to the friendliness of the staff this place is awesome. They have a little snack area with free drinks while you wait. The bathroom is spotless. MJ was very polite and talked to me about things being done to my vehicle. I’ve been in shops where they just don’t care and you give
