I was a long-time, satisfied customer of Harloff Automotive. I was equally comforted and impressed by the transition from Harloff to John's Automotive Care in La Mesa. Their mechanics are excellent; their communication is clear, proactive, and friendly; their rates are well within reason, and they operate from a high level of integrity. One time, I took my car to Discount Tire right after having work done at John's Automotive. I had just discussed the condition of my tires with the manager at John's and knew the tread depth measurements because John's A. documents everything at each inspection. I was surprised when the rep at Discount Tire showed me a totally different result, and proceeded to try to sell me all new tires. I called the manager at John's Automotive, who then got on the phone with the manager at Discount Tire and gave them a stern warning to not play these kinds of games. John's Automotive has shown me consistently that they have my back, and they truly care about making a positive difference in the community.

Awesome guys working there …!!!! Honest !!!!! Brian is great …!!!!

John’s Automotive is first rate in every category: the personnel whom one first meets when they enter the office are friendly and helpful; vehicle inspections are thorough and the implications based on those inspections are forthright; the repair work is of the best quality, and the prices are competitive. Good, honest, auto repair shops are hard to find and when one finds a good one its best to stick with it. John’s is one of those shops.

Brought in my 1999 Toyota 4runner for a leaking hard brake line, the team at JAC inspected not only the brake line but the whole truck and gave me an overview of the condition. Very honest, friendly, and accommodating staff.

A suggestion I would make would be to also call and discuss the items on the inspection report. We didn't catch the email before we went to pick up the car. If we had, we would likely have had the air filter also changed.

Excellent service. Honest.

was referred by family to this place. they are very friendly and professional they didnt try to upsale me anything I didnt need. made some minor recommendations but thats it. would definitely recommend them and they have gained a new customer! thank you!

The entire staff at John’s Automotive were so helpful to us during our vacation down south. Our brakes had completely gone out and they were able to get us in and all fixed up in one day. They also shuttled us to downtown so we could enjoy our vacation in San Diego while they worked on our car. Amazing Service and kind people. We are so grateful to you Jay
