Dealership expertise. Neighborhood prices. One shop.

Here's something most people don't realize: the mechanic at your dealership and the mechanic at J.E.R.S. Automotive in Glenview may have the exact same certifications. The difference is what they charge you for them.

Joe Chin is an ASE Master Automobile Technician, Advanced Level Specialist, Engine Machinist, and Hybrid & Electric Vehicle Specialist — the same credentials you'd find at any top dealership service center. But J.E.R.S. has been independently owned since 2009, which means no service quotas, no upsells, and no reason to recommend anything your car doesn't actually need.

168 five-star Google reviews. 15+ years serving the North Shore.

Same expertise. Half the attitude. Better price.

Before Joe Chin fixed your car, he taught others how to fix theirs.

As a former automotive instructor, Joe didn't just learn the trade — he taught it. And when he opened J.E.R.S. Automotive in Glenview back in 2009, he brought that same philosophy with him: explain everything, cut nothing short, and never leave a customer in the dark.

Today he holds some of the most advanced certifications in the industry — ASE Master Automobile Technician, Advanced Level Specialist, Engine Machinist, and Hybrid & Electric Vehicle Specialist.

168 five-star Google reviews say the lesson stuck.

If you want a mechanic who treats every repair like a teaching moment — one who explains what's wrong, why it matters, and exactly what it'll cost — Joe's your guy.

He could have stayed at the dealership. He could have kept teaching. Instead, Joe Chin brought everything he learned back home.

🐭 Mice chewing through your wiring? Yeah, it happens more than you'd think — especially in the Chicago suburbs.

When this customer brought their car in, they'd already been quoted $5,500 elsewhere for a full engine harness rebuild. Joe took a closer look and found a smarter path forward — patching everything up without the massive overhaul, saving this customer thousands of dollars.

That's exactly who we are. We're not here to upsell you on services you don't need. We're here to do what's right for your car and your wallet.

"Joe was able to patch everything up without needing a massive overhaul service done. They were very honest and open with communication and had me back in my car in a reasonable timeframe."

If you're dealing with a surprise repair quote that feels too high, bring it to us first. You might be pleasantly surprised. 🙌
