Steve Johnson Automotive

WARNING LYING Most disgusting deceptive mechanic very rude he knew I had no money and tried to rip me off anyway. He had made comments that I drive a Mercedes and I must make more than them.



He ripped me off a few times and so i got 3 other opinions after that and found out they were lying about my brakes needing to be changed urgently and front strut mount was broken apparently needed to pay $1600 all up and my brakes only had 2mm but when I checked 3 other places all said I had 6mm on brake pads which lasted me another 2 years and nothing wrong with front strut. This was after he knew i just moved in to a new place and was struggling cos my old housemate didnt pay rent for a month. They also previously did a major service and within 15 mins driving something went wrong and they said its not their fault and that just something else has gone wrong with my car and I need to pay for it and when I went back they said by the way one of ur sensors is going it's $400 to fix u can pay now or wait for light to come on and I said I'll wait for the light to come on and it's been years and that's never happened! Absolutely dogs they should be ashamed trying to take advantage of people especially when they know they are struggling.

Rude, intimidating and threatening



An absolute nightmare of an experience for a three day task taking this guy 3months and only to ‘ripp (remove) out’ his work



The experience cost me dearly and is likely to cost me much more



Left my car and personal possessions insecurely on the street LAUGHS when request he secures it better



Likes to tell his lackie’s to inform his clients he is ‘away on personal matters’ (yet) Stevie likes to accept many other jobs leaving mine on the outer further



Blames his customer threatens to rip his so called work out requesting customer apology OR ELSE



Locked my car up over the long Xmas break without any indication or knowledge of when he returns with no signage when he was supposed to have car finished mid December

* on a day his receptionist tells me he would call to update me



Removes all after hours contact number from gate (known to be there much time)



Gets his lackies and receptionist to lie for him and receptionist acts all silly like she knows nothing ‘mbut I’ll get him to call you’ never does (consistently)



The experience cost me thousands in emergency plan b type plans of transportation as I was in process of moving interstate (and go camping with my car)



This guy seems to have no ABN and if you like a ‘stand over’ mechanic who has little clue what auto electricals in Subaru then maybe choose wisely



Sometimes you need to either pay a little more or wait for a ‘good’ rock solid mechanic who has the ability to provide updates and top workmanship



I didn’t find any of that with this guy



Charged me 1$ to now have expensive assessments as I’m almost sure he is the type to sabotage my car in any event things go wrong (laugh’s)



I didn’t feel safe going back to collect my car either (it was that bad)
