These days there seems to be a trick in finding a competent auto mechanic that is also trustworthy and fair. One who is capable of getting it done right, and who you can trust will not try to sell you something you don't need, or charge you for work they did not do. If you live in or near Merced County, California, may I recommend one? When it comes to auto repairs, all of my personal and business repairs go to JNT Automotive Repair, located at 210 W. 15th St. in Merced. (Behind the Taco Bell on Martin Luther King Jr. Way.) John will take good care of you, and do it at a very fair price. I hope that many of you will give JNT a try the next time you need auto repairs. Julie and I wholeheartedly endorse them!
