Keith Vandegrift, 03/15/2020
I went to get an annual inspection- it only took 10 min and was $10! Great service, with a clean, friendly, and comfortable waiting room. You can watch your car be serviced from your seat. All around super convenient, and I will be back.

Aaron Z.
Trust them with all of my cars. Quick friendly service. I have been going here for 10+ years and send friends and family there too.
Joshua J.
Took my Jeep here multiple times for small service as well as more serious repairs. They always had great communication, timely repairs, quality work, and fair prices. Very reasonable and friendly! I was sad to lose them when I moved away from the area.
Jesse D.
We had a brake problem on our camper and we gave then a call and they said they could help us out. We pulled in at about 2pm, they diagnosed our issue very accurately, gave us options for repair, and then completed the repair. Their price was very good and they did very good work! We were out a few hours later.
Greg H.
Took my car there for the first time today without an appointment to get an oil change and an inspection. Super friendly service, and they had my car ready by the time I was done with lunch too! I would have paid much more and waited much longer for the both elsewhere, which is nice seeing as how J & T also filled up my windshield wiper fluid, checked my battery and air pressure and such all for free.
Autumn R.
Been taking my family cars there for everything for quite a few years now. Bid problems and little problems. I forgot that you can have bad car repair experiences because these folks have been so honest and capable. I have deep appreciation for J and T Auto Cafe. Very skilled and totally honest. Cool guys, too.
Sum C.
I?ve been going to J&T?s for years. These guys make every effort to do right by their customers. I?ve worked in customer service my whole life and have a high standard that few businesses can meet. J&T?s is one of them. Keep up the good work, fellas!
Chad H.
I have been a customer at J & T for over 10 years, and have NEVER been happier with the care my vehicles have gotten. They go over and above to make sure my vehicles are safe for me and my family. Now my family members are taking their vehicles there as well. Thank you, guys!!

Vehicle Tips

According to recent studies, 5 percent of all motor vehicle fatalities are clearly caused by automobile maintenance neglect.
The cooling system should be completely flushed and refilled about every 24 months. The level, condition, and concentration of coolant should be checked. (A 50/50 mix of anti-freeze and water is usually recommended.)
Never remove the radiator cap until the engine has thoroughly cooled. The tightness and condition of drive belts, clamps and hoses should be checked by a pro.
Change your oil and oil filter as specified in your manual, or more often (every 3,000 miles) if you make frequent short jaunts, extended trips with lots of luggage or tow a trailer.
Replace other filters (air, fuel, PCV, etc.) as recommended, or more often in dusty conditions. Get engine drivability problems (hard stops, rough idling, stalling, diminished power, etc.) corrected at a good shop.
A dirty windshield causes eye fatigue and can pose a safety hazard. Replace worn blades and get plenty of windshield washer solvent.
Have your tires rotated about every 5,000 miles. Check tire pressures once a month; let the tires cool down first. Don't forget your spare and be sure your jack is in good condition.
Check your owner's manual to find out what fuel octane rating your car's engine needs then buy it.
Keep your tires inflated to the proper levels. Under-inflated tires make it harder for your car to move down the road, which means your engine uses more fuel to maintain speed.
Lighten the load. Heavier vehicles use more fuel, so clean out unnecessary weight in the passenger compartment or trunk before you hit the road.
Use the A/C sparingly. The air conditioner puts extra load on the engine forcing more fuel to be used.
Keep your windows closed. Wide-open windows, especially at highway speeds, increase aerodynamic drag and the result is up to a 10% decrease in fuel economy.
Avoid long idling. If you anticipate being stopped for more than one minute, shut off the car. Contrary to popular belief, restarting the car uses less fuel than letting it idle.
Stay within posted speed limits. The faster you drive, the more fuel you use. For example, driving at 65 miles per hour (mph) rather than 55 mph, increases fuel consumption by 20 percent.
Use cruise control. Using cruise control on highway trips can help you maintain a constant speed and, in most cases, reduce your fuel consumption.
Keep your engine tuned. A fouled spark plug or plugged/restricted fuel injector can reduce fuel efficiency as much as 30 percent.
Inspect the engine's belts regularly. Look for cracks or missing sections or segments. Worn belts will affect the engine performance.
Have the fuel filter changed every 10,000 miles to prevent rust, dirt and other impurities from entering the fuel system.
Change the transmission fluid and filter every 15,000 to 18,000 miles. This will protect the precision-crafted components of the transmission/transaxle.
Inspect the suspension system regularly. This will extend the life of the vehicle's tires.
