Juniors Automotive

This is a true five-​star business. By far the fairest, most honest garage I’ve ever dealt with. They’ll tell you what you need and give you a great price on it, and best of all they’ll be honest about what you don’t need. This is the only garage where I have EVER dropped off my car for a suspected problem and been told that not only didn’t they see that problem, they didn’t see any other problems! Practically every other garage on the planet will come up with a phantom ball joint or leaky radiator or some $ 500 BS just for the inconvenience of having put your car up on a lift to look at it, and tell you that your car’s not safe to drive without doing it. Most recently my emergency brake wasn’t working, and they noticed I had a loose piece of fender trim. Came back at the end of the day, and not only was the e-​brake fixed and a washer added to secure the cracked fender plastic around the screw… there was NO charge! Even if I didn’t live in Hyde Park I’d come from far away to patronize this place. It’s literally next door to the Hyde Park commuter rail station, which is a 15-​minute train ride from South Station. Highly recommend this place to anyone who can get there.

Love you guys! First time there bringing my mothers car in for work and they are awesome. Ordered the parts I needed, made a suggestion on how I could save money replacing this part and got it done same day. Now that I’m driving my own car now, bet your ass I’ll take it to them for all service needs. The guy at the front desk (junior???) is wicked personable and easy going. Great place

Driving to work in Hyde Park, my check engine light came on and I started getting a very rough idle and sluggish acceleration. Made it to work and asked a coworker for a recommendation, and they said without a doubt, go to Juniors. I was able to drop off my car that day, and they got it back up and running by the time I left work. Love that it’s close enough for me to walk from work, but most of all, I love that there was no BS, just a straightforward, honest assessment and fix. They did the essential work, not the wallet-​padding work. In my case, I needed a new ignition coil, maybe four. When they called me back they said I only needed one and saved me hundreds of dollars. Will be going back for future maintenance.

They did excellent job for my car. Money Saver. My co-​worker recommended me this awesome place. My car was shaking after I changed brake fluid in Firestone and they asked me to replace four tires which could charge $ 1,600. I don’t trust what Firestone told me so I went to Junior. And he said it was something wrong with the coils. This is what you need to do, replace tires are what you don’t need to do. He is honest to the customer and very efficiency. And I will come back next time if I need.

I’ve been taking my 2003 Nissan Maxima and my wife’s 2003 Toyota 4Runner to Juniors for 7 years. You won’t find a nicer guy who will tell you like it is when it comes to your car. Prices are way below what dealers charge and the quality of service is just as good or better. He allows me to bring my own parts and only charges me the labor so you know he’s a honest man who isn’t looking to rip you off by charging huge mark up on the parts. I like to know what brand of parts are going on my car so this is another reason I love this place. Just take a drive by the shop and you will see how extremely busy this shop stays and that’s because there honest and do good work

I have been going to the dealer for most repairs on my 6 year old honda. When the dealer told me I needed close to $ 1900 in repairs on various things I had had enough. I called Junior and brought the car in. His repairs? $ 800. All that stuff the dealer told me I had to do? Junior said it was BS. He told me exactly what they say and why they say it, and he tells it straight. This is what you need to do, x y z are what you don’t need to do. I trust this place with any car of mine. I trust them to do the right thing for ME and not their wallets. They do just fine being 100% honest. They never seem to not have time to take my car, no 1 week appointment. Just bring it in whenever you want and its done by the end of the day. No BS.
I agree with the other commentor, they sometimes dont call you when the car is done, but it always seems to be done whenever I call. I don’t know any other mechanic that I dont have to question or doubt. I wish they were closer to my house so it is easier to drop off the car, but I am willing to travel for an honest business.
Junior knows his stuff. He had a radio show when I was a kid growing up on 1030 WBZ, and he’s the real deal. A Click n’ Klak without all the schtick.

I just moved to the neighborhood and was looking for a good mechanic after I hit a curb (d’oh!). My neighbor recommended Juniors, and I think I have found a shop I would recommend to others. The proprietor (perhaps the eponymous Junior?) was very nice, and the service appears quite thorough and reasonably priced. I’m comparing this to another mechanic I went to for the same problem (curbs and me just don’t mix), and that last place charged me more and left the steering crooked. He also recommended a scrap yard for a replacement wheel, and zipped a bit of metal off my current rim so I at least have something until I replace it.

Junior is the best around here! I have dealt with many other mech. in the past that seem untrustworthy. Junior is right to the point and very fast. I run a plumbing company and own 2 trucks. Its very important to us to drop off the trucks anytime and receive quick service. Most important thing of all… Junior calls you when you vehicle is ready, not just leave it sitting all day when you could be making money.

This is the best shop I have ever worked with. Junior is a great mechanic and a good guy. His whole crew as well. He will fix what needs to be fixed. No up-​sell or bs. The work is done well, on time, and for a reasonable rate. Not shade tree cheap but a value for the quality of service. 100% recommended to anyone with any type of car.

I’ve been going to Junior’s, with several older cars (I’ve rarely owned cars less than 8 years old), and the few times I’ve tried going somewhere else I’ve been reminded why I should only go to Junior’s. The first time I knew the place was different was when I dropped a car off asking them to do some work I was sure needed to be done, which would have easily been a few hundred dollars; I got a call from Junior a few hours later telling I didn’t need the work and he wasn’t going to do it or charge me for it, that all that was needed was a minor repair which only cost a few bucks. Where does that happen? He’s always kept my old cars in great shape and is totally reliable, and has several times brought me under the lift to show me the work they’re doing. Junior’s has a customer for life!
