If you believe Jimmy helped us out in 2019 when we blew out a travel trailer tire. He came down to the exit/entrance to 95 at the gas station/mini mart, helped me change the tire and I went to his shop for 4 new tires figuring if one dry rotted and blew out I would not get very far. Good work, competitive prices and we were on our way. Sorry it took so long to write.

Wow! What a blessing from Mr. Jimmy. We couldn't make this story up! LOL! My husband and I were traveling home from Florida to Myrtle Beach when we had issues with our vehicle. We had been up since 2AM and were traveling along with my daughter and her husband who were on their third car rental for the week from Enterprise. We were both having issues and it was very stressful! Our car totally pooped out after driving only about three hours after stopping at Auto Zone for a brand new battery. The guy who put the battery in didn't check the alternator and so the brand new battery got drained. We were done. Then we found Mr. Jimmy! It was definitely a "God thing" because my husband had prayed that we wouldn't get ripped off having to have a repair done on the road. My husband felt a calmness in his spirit and heard the words "Have I ever let you down before"? No, He hasn't! In speaking with Mr. Jimmy we discovered that he was Pastor Jimmy! He is definitely a gift from our Father! He gave up his evening leading worship at his church just so he could get our vehicle fixed. If he hadn't done that he wouldn't have been able to do it until Monday! We would have to spend $ on a hotel for two more nights! What a wonderful man. My husband shared the story with Mr. Jimmy of how he prayed about not getting ripped off. Pastor Jimmy loved seeing His Hand in the incident. You see, YAHWEH is good.....He is always good! He brings forth good people who do the right thing. It was wonderful. We will never forget Mr. Jimmy. He dropped everything to help a stranger in need and gave us a fair price for the job. Oh yeah and he put a new alternator on.....not an afer-market one! Honest, caring, fair, and very loving man. Great to have met you Mr. Jimmy! Thanks for the song and thank you for saving the day. We will never forget you!

Was working a Job from Hinesville, Georgia to Tulsa, Oklahoma and before I could even get 8 miles from my pickup location I had 3 tires blowout back to back. The owner was so genuine and kind hearted he came out on 3 separate occasions, knowing it was late and taking time from his family, he decided to help me a small town boy from North Carolina succeed in his business. I m forever grateful for this experience I had. If you re around the Riceboro area and having any type of vehicle problems do yourself a favor and call Triple J s Auto & Truck CenterService: Tires

We blew a tire on our 52 foot trailer on 95 and called many places to help out. No one was willing to come out. We called Triple J and no one answered, but were surprised to get a call back only minutes later. He came out within 20 minutes, changed the tire, and got us back on the road all while charging a very reasonable amount. They were awesome and can t recommend them enough!

We where traveling back home to NH in out Motorhome and one of our tires was about to blow so we googled the closest repair shop. Triple Js came up and we went there in desperation. He popped the tire off and threw on a new one in no time and we where on our way. Highly recommend! I think I'll put him on the Christmas card list this year!

He should be more friendly and let someone know the prices before he does the work. My tire blew out, and he charged for the tire and didn't say anything about the stem until it was time to pay. Also, red flags. He said his system was down but pulled money out of his wallet for my change once he gave him our money.

Jimmy was so amazing! He plugged my tire in less than 10 minutes. I didn't have enough cash on me for the full amount but he said I could send it via mail. Such such a kind soul and great mechanic! If you're in the area and need assistance, he's the guy!

Moving from MD to FL definitely was an adventure. We ended up blowing 2 5th wheel tires in the course of 24 hrs. Being in the Bible Belt, nothing was open on Sunday's. After calling 8 "Googled" numbers, I finally reached Triple J's. He was out on a call but were able to meet him at his shop and the service was perfect. Not only was he open, but, he had multiples of the tires we needed. He was fast, professional and his prices were fair! He was super nice too... I can't thank him enough for helping us in a time of chaos! Thank you for the southern hospitality!

So at 530am today I was hit from behind out of nowhere. I have no clue what hit me. After making a police report I continued along my journey to Savannah. (After a complete meltdown) on my way back south to Jacksonville my tire blew out. IKR lucky me! I was given the name and number to Triple J so I gave him a ring. He made it out to me within 20 minutes. Got me loaded up and to the shop. 20 minutes later I was back on the road. Very understanding and reasonably priced. Was even kind enough to pray over me once I was ready to head back out on the road. Also called to make sure I made it home safely. Highly recommend his services!Service: Tires

Our car died unexpectedly and I called Triple J s to see about getting the car towed. I got Jimmie, the owner. He had just come out of the hospital after an accident, but he talked me through scenarios and was researching possible solutions to get us back on the road. He even came out to jumpstart our car so we wouldn t need a tow but could make it back home to our dealership. I can t recommend Jimmie enough! He went above and beyond. He is good people and the world needs more like him.

All we have to say is thank god for Jimmy. After driving our horse trailer with 7 horses over 24 hours and 4 tire blow outs we were about to give up. Stranded on the side of I95 tired, stressed, and not even know who to call on a Sunday evening we tried calling Jimmy. He called us back right away and luckily we were only a mile from the exit. He met us at a gas station, fixed our tire and prayed for us to get to Florida safely. We are forever grateful for Jimmy and we will never forget you. We highly recommend!!!!!Service: Tires

My pregnant daughter broke down on I-95 late on Sunday night and was towed to Mr. Jimmy's shop. Mr Jimmy was the nicest person. It took 3 days to find the part we needed for the repair but he called us twice a day to keep us updated and got us up and running at a fair price. The truck runs better than when we bought it. Would definately recommend them to anyone in need and would revisit if needed to. Thanks for all you done.Service: General repairs & maintenance

We were heading home from South Carolina to Florida on Monday after a funeral/family visit. We had a screw in our rear tire and it was leaking air fast. I had my 13 year old daughter and 80 year old father in law in the car with us, nervous what to do next. We were stopped at Sunaco gas station just off interstate calling roadside support to help change to our spare to get to to a tire store. A very nice gentleman at the gas station came out to let us know there was a tire shop 5 miles straight down the road. He said we had enough air, we would make it there, just drive slow. He called ahead. They would repair or help us find a new tire. Sure enough we arrived at Mr Jimmie's shop, he took tire off and said he could repair it. Sent us inside and got right to work. He repaired it less than 15 mins, and his price was more than reasonable considering we had no other options. Thank you for your kindness sir, you were a blessing, and I hope that kindness is repaid to you 10 fold.Service: Tires

Traveling to NC with 2 grandchildren and the vehicle started shaking. Thankfully the exit we had to get off I-95 on, was the road where Triple J's was located. The store clerk suggested them. What a godsend. They immediately found new tires, went and picked them up and installed on our car. We were back on the highway in a little over an hour. The whole experience couldn't have been better and the people any nicer.Jimmy, I hope you enjoy the mangoesService: Tires

We were traveling back to FL from NC and our RV started having issues. It was after 5 on a Friday, the owner answered and said he d meet us at his shop. He promptly fixed the issue with two new tires we needed and we were on the road home. Saved the day! Thank you!!!

Jimmy saved the day! Our car overheated on 95 and he came out on a Sunday to tow it and take a look at it. He was very quick and responsive!

Our converted van had a tire explode and blow side panels down the road - AAA knew aobut Triple J's and they were fast, professional and had the tires we needed. We agreed that three should be replaced. My brother is a mechanic and he saw the tires later in the month saying they were quality at a good price. Thanks so much to the owner and his staff! We went on to the winebar in Darien GA to celebrate surviving a potential tragedy - driving bumpily to the highway edge after sailing along at 70 mph can be way scary. Great garage, good for AAA sending folks there, they are knowledgeable and have good quality products.

Our car wouldn't start at the McDonalds off 95. A call to Triple J's had Jimmie Jones under our hood in 15 minutes. He jumped the car and had us follow him to his shop. He replaced our battery and alternator and had us back on the road in a few short hours. He is a terrific mechanic and we enjoyed talking to him. His charge for fixing our car was very reasonable. If you ever need service in Riceboro Ga, Jimmie Jones Jr is the guy to call.Services: General repairs & maintenance, Auto engine diagnostic

On Sunday evening, our radiator overheated. Limped it to the McD's, just off the southbound I-95 lane. We called Triple J's and the next morning we were escorted to J's shop, just a couple miles west of the interstate. Within 3 hours, he and his colleague had diagnosed, removed old radiator, obtained the correct model radiator, re-installed and filled with fluid! We took a walk, and they were done before we even got back!!! whuuyt??? Mr. "J" is a man of few words and quick action! Price was reasonable. Cats were a bonus!Thanks so much!Services: Auto water leak repair, General repairs & maintenance

Alternator broke on a family trip from out of state. We d been driving 17 hours already and we re stuck out in the sun. He towed our 12 passenger van and his wife helped take our passengers to the garage. Replaced the alternator in about a half an hour. They gave us water, air conditioning, and warm hospitality. We were on our way and still in time to pick up our friends from the airport. Such lovely kind people.Service: Engine repair

Traveling to Florida for vacation and we had a tire blow out in our van. We were extremely fortunate to find JJJ s.He had a tire for us and has us back on the road in short order.Did I mention this was a holiday weekend! Jimmy went out his way to help us. Polite, professional. We could have easily lost hours or days getting back on the road, he has on the road in under 30 minutes from call to repair.

My fianc� and I went to this kind man a couple weeks back when we were on our way from Pennsylvania to Florida. My car engine light came on and began to sputter when trying to accelerate on the highway. I had no idea where we were and called around for mechanics available but many were closed on a Saturday. Thankfully Triple Js was open and willing to see us. Even after some issues with my insurance and the tow truck driver he called to make sure we were coming and offered to tow us. When we got there he saw to us promptly and gave us a quick solution that would allow us to finish our long drive and make it home. He was so polite and priced us so well despite the wait on our part. It was a blessing and we truly appreciate how he worked with us on such short notice. 10/10 would see him again.Service: Auto engine diagnostic

I was traveling back home from Florida to South Carolina on a Sunday when my tire went completely bald and was shredded. Of course all businesses were closed and it was pass 7:00pm. I called this business and the owner came in on his off day and changed my tire. He had us back on the road in less than 20 minutes of being there. Thank you for showing true passion for what you do and being compassionate enough to come in on your day off.Service: Tires

Fast, friendly service. We were heading home from Savannah, then had a problem and didn't know what was wrong with the car. They were able to diagnose and fix it in under an hour. They were so polite. If anyone were to break down on or near I-95, take it to Triple J's. Thank you!

I was driving home Sunday afternoon back to south Carolina and my belt was slipping on my truck. I was given his card and called him. It was mothers day and I was 3 hours from home with my children and my dog with me. He came very quickly and tried to fix it the same day. He had to order the parts...my truck was ready the next day and he did a wonderful job. I have a mechanic where I live that was trying to overcharge me... Jimmy is a very professional mechanic and I feel he went above and beyond to get my truck fixed in a timely manner and at a very affordable price! I would highly recommemd him to Anyone in the Savannah area ! Thank you for helping me out that day! I am very appreciative for what you have done!

The most disrespectful place I ve ever been for a long time. They charged me $80 just for swapping one tire. Treating customers like $hit and being disrespectful. For my question to put more air into my tire I received the finger pointing to get out of there. Job is undone!AVOID THIS PLACE FOR ANY REASON! SCAMMING PEOPLE!

I hate to leave a negative review for this guy but I have to. I was stuck on I-95 with a shredded tire and my car (that I just bought the day before) didn't have a spare. It was Sunday night and all the tire shops were closed. Found this guy on Google maps and called him. He said he was having dinner but to send the tire specs so he could check if he had any replacements. Cell signal kept going out so it was hard to communicate but he kept saying he didn't think he had any in that size. Meanwhile I'm calling my insurance's roadside assistance and they say they can tow me, so I found a hotel next to a tire shop so I can get the tire replaced the next morning.While I'm setting up the tow Jimmie calls and says he has the tire I need and is on his way. So I cancel the roadside assistance. He gets to me and complains that I interrupted his dinner but he knew nobody would be able to help on a Sunday night so he came out. He took the shredded tire with the wheel and said "be right back" and drove off. I had no idea when he would be back. He did come back about an hour later with the wheel on a new tire and replaced it. Then he told me to meet him at the gas station at the next exit to get cash out of the ATM to pay him $165 for the tire and $100 for the roadside service. When we get there he says "I better be getting a tip" for coming out on a Sunday night. I have a long drive ahead and don't want to argue with him or get change for the cashier so I give him $280. Fast forward, I'm a few hundred miles away and notice a rumbling every few seconds coming from the back where he replaced the tire. When I get it home I take it to a tire shop and they tell me he gave me the wrong size tire and it would only give me a couple thousand miles before causing major damage to the car. So I had to buy a new correct size tire and now I'm out the $165 for the tire I bought from Jimmie. I'll be lucky to get $50 selling it to a used tire shop.He did come help me on a Sunday night and seems like a nice enough guy so I gave him two stars instead of one. But he was unprofessional and rude to complain and ask for a tip, and then give me the wrong size tire. If I had known I would have just paid to get it towed.
