Fantastic customer service and car service! So happy I found Johns to change the oil on my car and keep her maintained.

Not good news, being told the part you need to fix a bad fuel leak isn't available. My 1996 Buick Park Avenue is my pride and joy so in despair at the news of no fix from another garage, I looked elsewhere. The guys at Johns Automotive El Cajon, came to the rescue. Leave for a few days I was told and within 24 hrs, Justin gave me some positive news that repair was possible. Today I have the Buick in my driveway and relieved that its not going to salvage. During those few days I was given updates for this repair, including an inspection report by email. These messages saved me time by not having to call each day to find out if the vehicle repair was possible. I was of course thinking the worst as far as cost was concerned, bearing in mind rising part and labor costs. The final amount was within my budget and reasonable. I would highly recommend the team at Johns Automotive Care El Cajon branch and this will be my future repair facility in future for my Buick and Ford Ranger truck. Again a big thanks and my appreciation for getting my Buick back on the road.

This place preys on people that don't know anything about cars. My sister recently went in for simple maintenance and was told she needed a new air filter among other items. Simple stuff. Quoted $152 for just the air filter and install. INSANE!! Simple trip to auto zone for a $20 filter and 3 minutes of work. Done. If you don't mind being ripped off by all means come here.

Took my 2020 Kona EV there after discovering a coolant leak. I used to take my repair needs to a Hyundai dealership and after my experience with John’s Automotive, I’m never going back to a dealer if I can help it. The customer service was great and Dave was professional and courteous in explaining all the details and the step by step process. Even though they looked extremely busy, I could sense their priority was getting my car back to me as soon as possible and expressing concern when they had to wait for a part and keep it for another two or three days. They were not aware that the last time I had my car at a Hyundai dealer, it took them A MONTH before they even LOOKED at my car, so two to three days was a gift. Before taking either of my EV’s anywhere else, I’m going to try John’s automotive first.

Thank you so much for the glowing review, Channing! We are delighted to have exceeded your expectations with our excellent customer service and timely repairs for your 2020 Kona EV. It was a pleasure serving you and we are grateful for your trust and confidence in our automotive care!

Everyone there that I encountered was super friendly and helpful. I could tell from the get-go they weren't going to try to overcharge me because I was a female. I have been to shops before that have felt that way. I love the fact that they gave me a ride home the day I dropped off the car. And what I loved the most was after they inspected the vehicle they will send over a very detailed inspection report with notes, pictures and videos. Lastly, they were honest and recommended a different shop for a different problem on the car which they felt, they were better suited to take care of.

Thank you so much for your kind words, Jasmine! Our team at John's Automotive Care is dedicated to providing top-notch service to all of our customers and it means a lot to hear that we were able to exceed your expectations. We believe in treating all of our customers with fairness and respect, regardless of gender, and are happy to provide a detailed inspection report and honest recommendations. We appreciate your support and hope to see you again in the future!

Was able to get a quick appointment for an alignment. The work was done on time and at a reasonable cost. I take all my vehicles to JOHNS because they do a superior job.

To much money $1,000 for a 1" plastic "T" installed. For real that is to much, nice people nice service just ridiculous pricing will not return.
