I had my timing belt and maintenance work done. The team here is top notch. I highly recommend this business. Shuttle driver took me home after drop off and picked me up. They are knowledgeable, kind and good people who work here. I will only go here for my car needs.

My initial experience with Johns could have been better, I felt that my financial concerns weren't properly addressed. I was surprised after the repair was complete to receive a follow up call from the owner John, apologizing for the miscommunication during my repair and offering to address a front end noise I've been experiencing for free. I brought my car in they did an extensive amount of checking and work. The determination is bad tires, I was assured that if there was still an issue after replacement they would make it right. I am a big fan of integrity and is comforting to know that there are still auto repair places that are all about quality work and customer appreciation. Thanks for reaching out and for being "Old School", Johns is definitely a winner.

We are looking forward to seeing you next week to listen to the noise that you are hearing.

If you ever have the misfortune of breaking down, you'd be very fortunate to bring your car here. They are kind, friendly, and always steer you the right way. They remember their customers and cars and it feels as if you are going to a family doctor for your car. My grandfather swears by them and I see why. Also, a great place waiting room to be stranded in. There are free beverages and snacks and a great little area for the kids to play in too. I was once stuck there for an hour or two and it barely felt like anything. They regularly checked up on me and made sure my ride was coming. Would highly recommend.

Thanks to Justin and Dave for going above and beyond to help me get my car back on the road. Once again I’m so impressed with the level of service,communication and care I received. Lots of extra work finding parts and rebuilding instead of replacing my Mercedes convertible top. I am so happy to have found this place.

Another great experience at John's Automotive Care. I needed a new car battery, called in at 4:30 pm. At 8 am they had the correct battery charged and ready to be installed. The service advisor treated me like family and made sure that I was very well taken care of. These people have gained my trust and confidence in the maintenance and repair of all my vehicles. I highly recommend them, especially on my BMW. They are so much less expensive than the dealership, have quicker turnaround times and back up their work with a strong warrantee.

Dave and his crew take great care of my vehicles. I won’t go anywhere else.

Best repair place in San Diego! Honest and friendly and always goes above & beyond in customer service. Thank you guys❤️

John Chung, as always, went above and beyond in helping to diagnose and repair our car. Bryan also proved quite helpful!

I can’t give enough praise, to Johns Automotive! My mom took her car there, when it was Harloffs and I wanted to as well. If your looking for an honest mechanic, this is the place! More than that, the staff is simply amazing! John and Dave at the counter definitely keep me coming back. They are the kindest guys and I trust them with the care of my vehicle. Definitely ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The service was excellent. I showed up without an appointment and was attended to quickly. My car was completed on time and with top quality. I will definitely return for my future car needs.The staff was super friendly and remembered me when I returned to pick up my car.
