Javier is always forthright and sincere. He doesn't try to up sale you. I don't know much about car repair, but my husband does and my brother in law who owns A.R.E. (NAPA) in Porterville, he recommended Honesty to me. Even though it's a bit of a drive from where I live, it's worth it! Thanks Honesty for living up to your name.

Best place to fix my car

Was looking for a good mechanic in the area for a year and then found them! Always up front and honest, willing to put in the extra mile to help explain issues and solve them accordingly without trying to rip people off like other places. Have recommend them to all my friends looking for auto repair help.

Love these guys. Their name is their bond. They worked through a problem with my daughters car and made sure they got it right. Cannot recommend them more!

Javier is the best! This will sound lame but the name does say it all. We have been sending ALL our cars to Honesty for over 8 years. Never an issue. Javier always explains exactly what’s going on and never pulls punches. I’ve told him many times his business could be 10 times the size it is now because he’s so good, but he values his family too much to sacrifice that. Feel confident taking your car to him...he will treat you right!

Like the name says they are down right honest

Javier is the best. I would never take my vehicles anywhere else.

Been coming here since 2009 absolutely the best mechanics. I appreciate how Javier takes care of his customers. Fastest workers and great service skills.

Polite, friendly, gave me a very good deal, got the work done fast. Very happy with them.

Excellent automotive shop. They know what they are doing when it comes to fixing cars. Very friendly and funny too.

Truly honestly service

The name says it all. Tha k you Javier!

Honest to God real customer here! This place is honest and fair. Javier cares about his customers truly. Very knowledgeable. I will be returning here again. The name says it all.

Great experience with these guys! Javier is a great person to do business with! I will keep coming back to see them!

Friendly owner - Fair pricing

Javier...just wanted to say thank you to you and your team at Honesty Auto...for getting me and my Jeep Liberty back on the road, I appreciate it, and the PT Cruiser is doing great also...

I feel this this business is true to their name they helped me out of a tight jam and got me back on the road faster than any other local company had I'll come back and use them again!

Great service. I can't change my own oil for cheaper.

My aunt and 2 cousins have been going here for at least 3 years. Javier has great communication and always takes care of you. Just voice your concerns and it will be done reliably.

Javier is always great.

We have been using Honesty Automotive for about 6 years now...family, friends and co-workers now take their autos there too. Javier is honest and trustworthy. My son inlaw took his really old honda in and Javier advised him not to fix it as the cars worth wasn't worth the repairs. ..he then took it to another mechanic who wanted to charge him over three thousand dollars to repair it...I can honestly say he is a great guy and mechanic!

I cannot say enough good things about the guys at the shop. My sister and I have taken a few vehicles to these guys for almost a decade. Each time is a pleasant experience. The waiting area is clean and most importantly, I trust their work and their prices. I will continue to refer my friends and family since they really do treat me like a member of their family.

I will not use another auto shop, these guys are by far the most personable, professional, and reliable in the business. Just call and set an appointment, and they will get the work done for you. Very happy with these guys.

I couldn't be happier with the service here! thank you So much Javier he took my car in at a short notice and had the problem resolved the next day I am always scared to take my car to a mechanic but everyone from my work referred me here. I can honestly say I will be brining my family cars here as well. I believe we just found a mechanic that we can trust :D

first and foremost the only reason I gave this a 4 star instead of a 5 star is due to the lack experiences/ business with this facility. In the 7 yrs I had my car (the one serviced by Honesty) I've taken it to them a total of 3 times and the first time was at their old location about 7 years ago for a simple help that other places was going to charge me $$ and Honesty did it in 2 minutes for free, so my car has been good to me. with that said, the 2nd trip was a result of another company (that specialized in my make) told me they would not work on my car model because it was "too difficult." I looked around and decided to go to Honesty due to the 1st experience and Javier was straight forward and honest with me. He did all the checks and since there was no engine codes he couldn't give me an accurate diagnosis. he told me he could do a few things to the car to figure it out or I could simply drive until the issue comes back or a check engine comes on and then bring it back. I opted to take my chances with out any major service other than the already agreed service but the honesty was well apreciated. the most recent time I again just wanted to see if there was another company that could/ would work on my same car since I couldn't figure out what was the issue plus it was making a wired noise I nor other mechanics could recognize. One shop told me he has a mechanic that could "take a crack at it." I wasn't about to let someone who is supposed to be ASE cert. "take a crack at it" on my car plus the owner of the shop told me it could be a week before his mechanic would be able to get to it. so I went back to Honesty, told Javier about the situation and what I needed done. Towed my car into Honesty the next morning, got a report of what they were going to do by the end of day 1, and by the afternoon of day 2 I got a phone call that my car was ready. other than the lack service history with Honesty everything they have presented and accomplished for me has been good enough for me to give it a 4 star. if given more service history like those of which i've experienced Honesty would earn a five. as stated by the 4 star, I "liked it" and would recommend their services.

This review is to respond to Jim's (jj) review. I feel that is necessary to hear both sides of the story. First I don't get a satisfaction on damaging customers vehicles so I can pay for them or be yelled by them. I am a man of high integrity and respect in my community. Jim mentioned we did repairs on his vehicle ( which it is correct ) , as per the center console that he almost cut his arm, he mentioned to me in person his wife securing it , it was held by a rotted rubberband, that we did not take responsability or did not care when I even installed two missing screws. Why would we do that? the transmission failing after 800 mls, when I asked him if fluid level was ok of if it leaked out, he said no, If i would off have left it off without fluid the vehicle would off not move or happen right away, we cannot predict thing that it may happen in the future. When he called me, he never mentioned anything about brakes making noise, from his review it was the first time I heard about it. If someone have had problems even the warranty has expired I have taken care of it. I am very sorry that he did not experience what other of my customers say about me and my business, but I care about each person that comes through my doors.

Honest makes it easy to do business with them: Service, Quality, and Price. You can't wish for anything more! We are very happy with Javier and his team.

Honesty Automotive,Had a great visit there,they took me right in & changed the oil in my car. Very friendly & personable people who work there,very confident that they did a good job. I will recommend them to my friends. Dema McBride

I have been a loyal customer of Honesty Automotive for about 3-4 years. From oil changes and smogs, and the way up to to timing belt replacement, I have always trusted Javier and his team. I will always highly recommend them.

I'm a single mother of two teenagers and I always know I can trust Javier to fix my car (2004 Chevy Tahoe) and not get swindled. As a female who doesn't know much about autos I have been told by other places (in the past) that my Tahoe needed things done to the engine that were not necessary. My Tahoe still runs great and I just passed over 110,000 miles. Javier is always quick to get me in to the shop within a day or two, he's super friendly, has fantastic mechanics working for him, but most of all, Javier Gadea is honest. The name of his business truly fits his personality and his automotive mechanical work. New car, or older car, Javier is the man to trust and get the job done without having to take out a small loan to pay for it. Once again, during the first week of January 2015, Javier came through for me with flying colors! I had to have my car towed in to Honesty Automotive at 12:00 noon (Javier gave me the name of a trustworthy tow company), Javier fixed it up and it was drivable by 7:00 that night and totally inexpensive for having to have been towed. I cannot boast enough about how "Honest, Good, & Quick" Javier and Honesty Automotive have been to me.

Javier and his team are always friendly and welcoming. I don't go anywhere else for my automotive needs.

I take my car there on a regular basis. After the shop that I used to closed down I felt very lost regarding the future repairs and maintenance of my vehicles. Javier is very friendly and always seems straight forward on what needs to be done, and what can wait. Whenever there is a delay or unexpected issue I always receive a phone call explaining the situation, options, and costs. This was the first shop that I visited once my last shop closed, and I haven't gone anywhere else since. I can't recommend this place enough.

I have to say I have been going to Honesty Automotive before it moved to it's current location. Honesty Automotive not only cares for our car, but he to cares about the owner of the vehicle. For Example Javier the owner of Honesty Automotive was going to be performing work on our car which was going to take several days. My wife showed up and he took her over to a car rental place so that so we can have a car while our car is being worked on. He not only waited for my wife to get the keys for the rental, he installed both car seats into the rental and even helped buckle them in. I can say that the name of the shop says it all too. I wouldn't take my vehicles any where else because there aren't very many automotive shops that take there work not only serious but personal.

Honesty Automotive is a wonderful place to take your car! It is so difficult to find a place that will be honest about what your car really needs. They took great care of me and my two little children while we waited, and fixed our car at an honest price. We were so impressed by the service we got, each time someone took the time out to explain what our car needed and why. I recommend you try them out!

I have had my cars serviced from Honesty for over six years and have been very pleased with the service and friendly atmosphere owner Javier and his crew provide. His hospitable personality combined with the quality service has made this a place I can trust in times of "auto crisis" situations.

This is my most trusted auto shop. I have never had to worry about if they were overcharging or if they were giving me bad advice in order to make an extra buck. These guys give a great service, at a great price, and with peace of mind.

High quality service and trustworthy

My experience here has been wonderful. Customer service says a lot about how a company views its customers and employees. They are now my "Go To" mechanics.

Yes, they are honest, but their name doesn’t include courteous, reliable, above and beyond, quality, friendly, exceptional, etc.! I know that they will do the right thing at the best price. Example, my oil change. I went to a place that does oil changes, smog, and car washes. Asked for the advertised price. For a smog, I was told I’d have to pay extra because of how the engine was placed. When I went elsewhere, they laughed at that story and charged me the same price. When that place did my oil change, I was told I’d have to pay extra because they had to remove a part to get to the filter. Honesty Automotive laughed at that story and charged me the correct price. There’s no need for a second opinion once you come here.

The Honesty Automotive team is one of the best in the valley. I have known them for over ten years, they have provided great services and repairs. God Bless.

Excellent service as always. in at 8am out at 8:35. Javier is a very professional ,friendly and helpful person. have recommended numerous folks to him.

Javier Gadea, the owner, always greets everyone with a smile, I also have a special needs son whom Javier kept entertained being silly while my Tahoe was serviced fully, quickly, everything was checked and fixed. His son Jesse even gave me a few ASL (American sign language) tips. The mechanics are very thorough, professional, and just as courteous as the owner and son. I highly recommends Honesty automotive especially to single women, because he won’t rip you off, sell you anything you don’t need, and he is truly a man of God where his conscience won’t let him lie to anyone! His title truly exemplifies his character.

Always the best service one can ask for.I never have to worry if the repair was done correctly.

I had received great customer service and great mechanical service too. The work was done superbly and the the cost was what was estimated.

E MAIL REMINDER OF NEED FOR SERVICE MADE A DIFFERENCE. APPOINTMENT MADE ON LINE HELPED AND QUICK CONFIRMATION KEPT ME FREE OF WORRIES. STAFF IS FRIENDLY, THEY EXPLAIN WHAT WILL BE NEEDED, FAIR ESTIMATES, AND COMPLETED WORK WHEN THEY SAID IT WOULD BE DONE. MY CAR RUNS LIKE NEW!

always happy

Honesty Automotive is the best. Javier cares about his customers and provided them with best services.

I trust Javier with all of my family's vehicles. My son found him for us when he was working with auto parts. He said, I visit garages every day and this is the guy I would take my car to." That was years ago and now we wont go anywhere else. Thank you again!

Would never take my vehicles anywhere else. Javier is the best and I always recommend Honesty Automotive to other people.

Honesty automotive is honestly the best place to go get anything done for your car. I get my car service there And they break everything down and explain what’s wrong and what the vehicle needs.

Great job every time.

Great experience. Quickly diagnosed the problem and fixed it.

I am always impressed at how clean their waiting area is. Today Javier was not in, but the staff was just as friendly and got me in and out in a timely manner. It is a pleasure doing business with Honesty and I have referred many to this business.

Outstanding service and friendly personal.

This is not my first trip to your shop that is why I come back , you always take care of our car and truck, I trust your work and your charges are more than reasonable, will continue to come to your shop.

took my mom's Lexus to Javier when it did while driving. He diagnosed it as a bad alternator & replaced it. He got the work done in the same day, which was very convenient for her. He does good work & is honest as they come.

They were very conscientious in fixing my Chrysler and getting it back on the road as well as fixing my Toyota. I will always take my cars to them

Very professional I was having trouble with the air conditioner on a very hot day and Javier got our car in and fixed it immediately. Have taken 3 cars to him and each time his team does an excellent job

Javier Gadea , owner of Honesty automotive is extremely professional, knowledgeable, reasonably priced, and will not try to sell you something you do not need. Being a single woman I have been taken advantage of too many times, lied to and trusted "professionals" to have been telling me the truth. Once I found Javier, I've not gone anywhere else. His shop name truly says it all!

I had an oil change performed on my truck. The service was performed in timely manner and the wait time was brief. I aporeciated being notified about potential work that needs to be done on the vehicle. Another great experience at Honesty Automotive.

Javier and his team took great care of me! They are a pleasure to work with! I will be coming back on a regular basis!

Javier and his technicians have proven to be fair professional and honest. I have recommended several friends to Honesty; including family members and we are more than satisfied. Keep up the good work Javier.

Javi is really great! He accommodates for my schedule working in Hanford and living in Fresno. He makes it easy to fix my car problems without missing work anf the service is always great! This is good, honest work at its best. And its refreshing to see in a line of work that isn't always so.

From the time I walked in the door until the time I left Javier made me feel very welcome and Beyond. I would recommend them for their great honesty and wonderful customer service . You have found a customer for life thank you have a good team.

I have been a customer for more than five years with Honesty Auto Repair. Outstanding service and outstanding repair parts. I highly recommend this business for all of your automotive repair and services. God Bless the team at Honesty Automotive Repair and God Bless the U.S.A.!

I was very happy with the service I received at Honesty Automotive. It was my first visit and I was treated very professionally. The estimate of the work that needed to be done was the amount I paid. I would recommend my family and friends to them.

Excellent and friendly customer service. I will always go back, because they are honest. My vehicles stay safe for me and my family. Thank you everyone at Honesty Automotive.

I would highly recommend them to everyone. Very pleasant staff and very knowledgeable. Truly live up to their name Honesty Mechanic. They diagnose your car and give you options. You decide which path to follow. We all try and save a quick Buck. They we assist you with that. I'm very satisfied with their service.

They are professional and friendly in the year is very good quality products I recommend everybody to go there they make you feel at home and what can I say service is fast. They get the job done n the workers work as a team

Thank you Javier for fixing my car so quickly, just in time for summer!

Always a good experience!

Always a good experience!

Javier and staff are always professional and honest. They also give me great customer service and go above and beyond!

Honesty has been servicing multiple cars in our family and business for several years and we always appreciate their hospitality, honest assessments and timely service. Thank you for being a place we can trust.

Javier is a great guy and very accommodating to your work schedule. Also, have had several things worked on with my car with no problems. HIghly recommend this business for your car issues.

Honesty Automotive is the place for me. I've tried other shops closer to home but the quality is not the same.

Honesty has always given me good service and I have been with them about 4 years. Today was no exception. I also appreciate the cleanliness of the office and the welcoming atmosphere.

The service was fantastic. The owner, Javier, took the word "Service" to a new level. I believe I found myself a new mechanic for my future automotive needs.

I took my Chevy Tahoe in to Javier and he guessed it right away. The cold air would shut off in the middle of driving and I would have to stop the car completely, put it in park, turn the engine off, then wait a couple seconds and turn the car back on and the cold air would work again. Sometimes this happened numerous times within a short 30 minute drive. Honesty automotive fixed it right up and now going into summer I can drive in comfort. Of course, Javier's guess was correct, it was the "thingy-majig".(I can't remember what it was, but he was right on when I described the problem to him.). Javier is the greatest!

Did an excellent job on the repairs needed in a timely and cost effective manner.

I went in for an oil change and received great service. Work eas performed in timely manner. Excellent auto shop!

My daughter recently took her Honda Accord sport in for her bi-annual oil change and as per Javier's 100% service check, they found a clogged air filter in her car's system. They replaced the air filter (as well as changed the synthetic oil) and her car is 100% at a very fair ( more like I'd say really cheap ) price. Thank you honesty automotive for taking care of my daughter.
