Johns Automotive has been a lifesaver for our family. My daughter is a student at SDSU, far from home, and finding a mechanic we can truly trust has given us such peace of mind. The team at Johns is friendly, fast, knowledgeable, and above all, honest. Over the past year, weve had both small fixes and a couple of major repairs done, and never once have we felt overcharged or misled. They always provide a detailed inspection report with photos and clear explanations of what needs attention, how urgent it is, and what can wait. Its rare these days to find a shop that combines expertise with integrity, and Johns Automotive does exactly that. Im so grateful to know my daughter and her car are in such capable, caring hands.

The BEST auto shop in San Diego. They send you an email with a photo of your mechanic and a list of what needs to be done immediately. They include a list of all systems they check and how they are doing. Super friendly and professional!

John’s Automotive Care truly raised the bar for what a five-star review should be. They were completely transparent about the work performed and explained everything clearly. My vehicle was serviced with an oil and filter change, new air filter, and tire balancing, along with a thorough suspension inspection that helped me plan for warranty coverage. Their honesty and professionalism set them apart — highly recommend!

Hi Paul, thank you so much for the incredible review! We’re thrilled to hear that our transparency, communication, and professionalism made such a strong impression. Our goal is always to provide clear explanations and trustworthy service so you can feel confident about your vehicle’s care. We truly appreciate your recommendation and look forward to helping you again!

I have been going to John’s for quite some time now. They are always transparent and honest. I brought my 2019 Chevy traverse in for an oil change and tire rotation. They did a thorough inspection and did not try and hard sell me any extras but thoughtfully pointed out maintenance items to keep my car running smoothly for longer. I would definitely recommend them and will be taking all of my cars there from now on.

Hi Lindsey, thank you so much for your continued trust and loyalty! We’re so glad to hear that our team’s transparency and thorough approach made a difference. It’s great to know you appreciated the care we put into servicing your Chevy Traverse and our commitment to helping you keep it running smoothly for the long haul. We truly value your recommendation and look forward to seeing you next time!

I was turned down by two auto shops before I found John's Auto care. I thought that I was going to have to have the head pulled to fix the problem but, they got the debris out and installed the newplug and coils and got the truck running in one day
