Our Story
Building trust through quality auto repair since 2012.
Honest Repair. Quality Service. Community Focused.
C & J Auto Repair started with a simple mission: provide honest, reliable auto diagnostics and repairs without the confusion and upselling that plagues the industry.
Founded in 2012 by brothers Chris and James (the C and J), our shop began as a small operation in a two-bay garage. Through word-of-mouth recommendations and a commitment to doing things right, we've grown into one of the most trusted auto repair shops in the Grove City area.
Today, we continue to uphold the same values that guided us from day one: transparent pricing, quality workmanship, and treating every customer like family.
