I've been taking my last 2 VWs to the dealership for servicings, repairs, etc. for the last 10 years. Over time I've just sort of gotten used to $1000+ bills for unexpected issues, and figured that was just the cost of driving older non-domestic vehicles. After my last (particularly expensive) trip to the dealership, I took my father-in-law's advice and checked out Honor Auto. I've had my car into Honor Auto twice now for servicing, and in both cases some additional work was required. Once it was the brakes, and the next time there was an issue with the air not blowing and the rear washer fluid dispenser not dispensing. On both occasions I picked up my car bracing myself for a fairly large bill. Both times, I was shocked to find that my bill was half (almost a third) of what I was expecting. I would recommend Honor Auto to everyone looking for a mechanic. You'll never wonder again if you're being overcharged or if things are being repaired that probably didn't need repairing.

Fantastic shop. Quick and responsive to schedule a time and set expectations. Everything was done on time and efficiently when actually at the shop. Honestly, the best part for me was the heads-up of things to lookout for without being told that it needs fixing now. Additionally, I had an issue with alignment which ruined a set of Winter tires and as most places would offer just to get a new alignment done. Honor Auto had the foresight of telling me that it's actually probably the tires and although we tried an alignment first (as per my ask) and it slightly improved things, a tire change was needed and made all the difference. The knowledge is clearly there along with the customer service which is great to find. Thanks for the great service, will be going again!

John came highly recommended to me. 9 months earlier I was in need of some emergency work and that particular mechanic had quoted me high and tried to guilt/fear-monger me into service I couldn’t afford at the time. When I came to see John today I was half expecting that previous list from the other guy to come back to haunt me. Guess what?! There’s a reason that Honesty is one of the first points talked about on Honor Auto’s website. I didn’t need most of that work. A simple brake job and a tire mount & balance and I’m back on the road! In todays day and age companies like this are hard to find. And as the income earner for a household of 7 people, they really do respect my hard earned money and I appreciate not being ripped off. I will certainly be back!

  • Shawn Smalley

Any time I find myself in need of a mechanic, my first call is to John at Honor Auto. You will not only find knowledgeable mechanics with years of experience, but a trustworthy and professional business owner who doesn't consider the job complete until the customer is completely satisfied. Everyone in my family owns a BMW and the team at Honor Auto has serviced them all. Everything from my classic '91 e30 to my sisters '13 e91 touring, and everything in between. They just finished an extensive chassis and suspension overhaul and I couldn't be happier with the end result. So, if you are looking for honest and experienced mechanics who provide exceptional service at a reasonable price, don't hesitate to talk to the guys at Honor Auto.

When fate landed me in John's hands, I thanked the lord. I've been going to John for about a year now. He has serviced my old 1 ton RAM and now he's working on my 95 Jeep (as we speak lol). I have always been skeptical about leaving my vehicle at the hands of a mechanic, NEVER have I felt that way about John at Honor Auto. His work is impeccable, his prices are amazing and the personalized touch he gives to each and every one of his customers is beyond what you'll find at any other Vehicle Maintenance shop in the city. If more people were like John at Honor auto...... one can only dream. Thanks a lot buddy, Ross

  • Paul McKay

I am very pleased to now have a go-to mechanic. Their honesty in what needed to be completed, fair pricing, excellent customer service and flexibility for pick-up and drop off of the vehicles all impressed and pleased me greatly. Since then I have brought them all of our vehicles. I would no hesitate to recommend Honor Auto to anyone, they can be trusted to do what is required without inflated prices and unnecessary improvements which is always our concern in dealing with other mechanic shops. They always provide great work at a fair price with excellent customer service and only complete what is necessary!

  • Gopal Kunjur

John is awesome and I highly recommend him. We have been using his services instead of the dealership for the last few years and have no regrets. He is professional, efficient, effective and is prices are very fair. A testament to his honesty was the time when he diagnosed a leak in the oil sensor and instead of quoting me an astronomical figure, suggested I took it to the dealership and look into getting it fixed under extended warranty. It is hard to find a honest and good mechanic and we have been lucky to find that in John. His shop being 10 minutes from where we live is just an added bonus.

  • Jennifer Kwan

My key fob died and I didn't have a spare! The car would not start even when I put the key fob in the ignition. John was able to look at it right away and diagnose the issue. He went above and beyond to get my car running again. The dealership would have charged me thousands of dollars for a new key plus diagnostics and reprogramming. John has taken care of everything and saved me a lot of money! He is very experienced and knowledgeable and does whatever he can to save you money! I totally recommend Honor Auto!

  • Jill Taylor

Firstly!! I am a bad car owner. Once the warranty is over - I run it until it won't run!! Enter John and Honor Auto. Fixed what had to be fixed to get it running again - nothing extra - no nagging or shaming. My 12 year old car was only down for 1 day and now runs like a dream. John was extremely fair and honest in his pricing and the work was exceptional (and quick!!). I will be a better car owner because of John & Honor Auto - I highly recommend Honor Auto to anyone with car troubles! Thank you John.

  • Kaitlin Dempster

I now have a place to get my vehicle fixed at all thanks to John for the amazing service. My car completely died on monday and he got the parts and my car fixed and back in my hands in 2 days even when they had to order the parts in from Vancouver. I had no appointment and they still gave me this incredible service I will definitely be back!! Would absolutely refer this mechanic shop to anyone with car problems. Extremely thankful for John and his service advisor. Very impressed!!!

  • Roy Miguens

Had another visit to Honor Auto today, and just had to compliment the service and pricing yet again. Had a smashed window after my car was broken into, and needed an oil change on my Honda Accord. Honor Auto had me back on the road on the next day and I couldn't believe how little I was charged ( dealer was at least 2.5 times more). I told the customer service person that they needed to charge more, and he replied "many customers tell us that!". Support small business in Calgary!

  • Sandy MacDonald

Have you ever walked into a machanic shop and felt like you were going to be treated fairly? Me neither, until I walked into Honor Auto. When I brought my older Escape in for servicing, John provided exceptional service at a fair price, along with a quick turn around time. I am very pleased with my service and most importantly the fact I was treated honestly and fairly, which is often hard to find. Thank you to John and the staff at Honor Auto. You have my loyalty.

  • Haroula Spiropoulos

As a single female, with little knowledge about vehicles and a small budget, who has been taken advantage of in the past by mechanics, I can’t say enough good things about honor auto. I really feel that they look out for my best interests and are transparent about what does and doesn’t need to be done for maintenance. Their fees are very reasonable as well. I completely trust John and his team and would not hesitate to recommend them! Thank you so much!

  • T LH

John was very honest with me and did only what needed to be done. He did the repairs for a fraction of the price I was quoted by Instamek, the dealership and other companies. I was very happy with the fast service and quality of the job. I’m so glad I have a go-to shop I can rely on now, and feel I can safely squeeze a few more years out of my vehicle. I will continue to recommend Honor Auto to people I know.

  • Catherine Thomas

I don't normally give google reviews but my experience with Honor Auto was ABOVE AND BEYOND my expectations! I will recommend them to all of my family and friends. They are reliable, honest and kept me informed of my vehicle status throughout the time it was there. They were also transparent in how much my repair would cost and I really felt that my vehicle was in good hands.

  • Calgary Signs

Walk past the overhead doors, and you will quickly realize Honor Auto is run like "a tight ship": it is the cleanest automotive shop I've ever seen! Work is done on time, cost is reasonable, and the owners are friendly.. what more can one ask from a business? P.S. In stark contrast, their nighbours to the left are "no bueno", so be sure to use Honor Auto. George-approved!

  • Andrew Apedoe

Honor Auto is the best team around in Calgary for auto repair services. I have been coming here for the last several years and every time I leave more impressed by the honesty, diligence, quality of work and kindness of the John & Lucy. I recommend them to my extended family, friends and neighbors which is the greatest form of trust and appreciation I can demonstrate.

  • Jimmy Reynolds

Apparently a very busy place, made an appointment hav a auto-starter installed in my VW, on arrival the attendant explained that the shop was to busy at the time and advise me he would call me for the installation. Left my number for a call back but as of today still no call back. This was a month ago (06 Jan 2020). At lease business must be good for this shop.......?

  • Agus Soewita

I am so happy to find John’s shop info on the web. Called him for a quote on my W212 which needed coil spring replacement. Right away I can tell that he knows European cars very well. Provided me very reasonable quotes and we scheduled a time. Came in for 1,5 hour and get the job done. He is the kind of guy who won’t tell you to do unnecessary works on your vehicles.

  • Ethan Longinotti

As long as I live in Calgary, I’ll be taking my car to Honor Auto. John and Lucy are accommodating, honest, and knowledgeable. Tune up after tune up I rave to family and friends about the service they provide, and encourage everyone who is looking for a trustworthy mechanic who knows what they’re doing to give Honor Auto a shot.

  • Ivana Niblett

Amazing customer service. Needed a tire changed and everywhere I went or called was booking at least 2 days out. These folks said the would look after me and took me in right away. Super friendly, value business and very helpful. Highly recommend and I think I have found my new mechanic. #ShopLocal

  • MMG. AMG

There’s a reason why this place has 4.9 stars. Trust John with what he says and does, he’s honest as the name suggests. I trusted his advice on a vehicle he inspected for me. Saved me from buying a car that needed a lot of work! He knows his German cars new or old!

  • Josh Hebert

I had a strange electrical gremlin in my truck. I had friend tell me about this place and boy was he right. I was amazed with the outcome. Turns out it was just a fuse that I had overlooked. I was expecting a hefty bill. Not at all. $150. Thanks John and Stan.

  • Tharsekan Nalliah

John is a great guy. He knows his cars and is so friendly! I am so happy I went to him with my MK2 Jetta. He had that thing fixed and up and running in no time and his prices are unreal! I will always be contacting him first for any mechanical work!

  • Fernando Nunes

Great service, knowledge, and attention to detail. I really appreciated John's patience and diligence diagnosing and fixing a frustrating problem on my car. Refreshing the way he kept me in the loop with his findings, recommendations, and assurance.

Incredible. Jon knows his stuff in an out. He knows what to look for and advises when to take action. Been going here for years and my VW is tip top shape. The name of the shop is what it is for a reason.
