John has been working on my A4 for about 2 years now. I've often found when working with other mechanics that their work was very impersonal and rather rushed - this simply isn't the case with John. What distinguishes his type of work from others is the time, dedication, and perseverance that he puts into the mastery of his own skill sets, which inevitably makes its way to the end consumer. Since I bought my A4 back in 2010, John has been the only mechanic I've allowed to touch my car, and for good reason. Most mechanics today try to cut corners, skimp on quality, and provide an inferior service under the guise of something great, but I am glad to say that I have never experienced this at JA Autowerks. I've taken my car to John for jobs ranging from simple breaks and rotors, to timing belts and more. Furthermore, his professional attitude towards his work and business is trumped only by the perfection of the vehicles that leave his shop. I would recommend his service to any Audi or Volkswagen enthusiast that takes their car seriously and wants someone knowledgeable and trustworthy working on their vehicle.

Having heard good reviews both in person and online, I thought it would be safe to send my sister's golf to JA Autowerks.

Boy was I wrong!

These people claim to be VW experts, but don't know that a stretch bolt is meant for one-time-use only. The car came back with the engine sitting a good 2-3 inches away from where it should. The engine mounts were installed crooked, and the bolts were reused. The resulting engine play caused multiple coolant lines to get cut by the belts.

I tried calling during normal business hours. No answer, and no return call when I left a message. I'm very disappointed that I spent time and money having the car towed to this shop, just to have them screw up the job as badly as a non-vw shop would have.

AJ, I am sorry to hear about the issue you have had with the VW Golf. I remember the vehicle and discussing the work with your sister, who's vehicle it is. Unfortunately, I do not remember receiving a phone call or message about any issues in this matter. After reading your comment today, I reviewed all of my phone messages again with the JA Autowerks office staff but could not find the messages you referenced. The vehicle was a TDI and JA Autowerks backs up all our TDI work with a 24 month or 24K miles warranty. With that said, I would have had no problem reinspecting the vehicle and addressing any issues pertaining to the work performed at the shop at no cost. Customer service is our main priority and we have spent the past several months investing in staff and office personnel to ensure our customers' experience surpasses that of any other shop. If you have any other question or would like to talk, please call the shop at (732) 268-7381.

John has been maintaining my A8 for quite a while. He is an expert technician and always does the work at a reasonable price. I recommend him to all of my "Audi driving" friends. I congratulate him on his new shop!

Johnny from JA Autowerks has been maintaining my VW Passat for years. I must say he does a great job and there is definitely proof because I have never had the chance to use the towing package from my insurance company I’ve been paying for since 2008. I bring my V6 Passat in for everything from diagnostics, oil changes, alignments, tires, brakes, major services (Tune-ups and Timing belt). He is always extremely cooperative with scheduling, very honest and I find his pricing reasonable. I would recommend him to anyone!
