San Diego Auto Repair

Everyone is stellar. They ALWAYS take care of me. Prompt service, great pricing, HONEST.

The staff at John's is so helpful and professional and I feel like I can rely on John and his employees to be honest with me about what work my car does and doesn't need. My car recently needed its 60k mile service and the dealership wanted nearly $2000 to do all the things, whether they needed doing or not. At John's, I paid less than $1000 for an oil change and new spark plugs, nothing else needed to be done, based on their inspection, so nothing else was done. That's honesty!

Excellent timely service from initial assessment through billing! Money and time well spent.

We winter in San Diego from the Midwest. John’s Automotive Care has been very good to us as they have repaired our old tow vehicle several times. This year it was to electric cooling fan that sent me in for help. The repair was made quickly and they also performed two warranty repairs from 2018. They have my appreciation and my loyalty for the excellent service they provide.

Very helpful!

Great service and communication.

I don't know why this place doesn't have five stars. These guys are awesome!! They charged us a quarter of what the dealer would've charged for some work. The customer service was outstanding too. They were great with trying to get the service done super fast knowing my toddler was not able to last long. My husband Bill had looked up reviews and did a lot of research before taking our GMC Acadia in. It's always so hard trusting your car and hard earned money to mechanics because you're basically hoping they don't gouge you for everything you've got. These guys are very honest, great to work with, and we will be long time customers and now recommend this place to everyone. Building lasting customers is a wise business move! Not trying to get a one-time, rip-off over on a customer that will never come back. Awesome job, thank you for your hard work!

This was my first time coming into this John's Automotive. I needed my transmission fluid changed. I went to another shop on Aero drive and they wanted to charge me an arm and leg and told me I needed other things done. I'm hesitant to trust any repair shop. But coming to Johns Automotive, I did not feel like that whatsoever. I spoke to Erika and she was very friendly, yet professional and showed concern over my car needs. When I came to the shop, she was reassuring, knowledgeable and honest. The customer service was top notch and the prices for the services was very reasonable. The place was clean and the service was excellent. My car is running smoothly and I will not only be coming back, but I'll spread the word - if anyone needs any auto repairs, Johns automotive is the only place to go! Comment from John E. of John's Automotive Care Business Owner 3/9/2020Sharon, thank you for the wonderful feedback! We're so glad you stopped into our San Diego location for us to change your transmission fluid. Customer service is our number one priority so it means a lot to hear that you were treated with knowledgeable, reassuring and reliable service. Happy to hear your car is running smoothly, and we look forward to working with you again! Read more

Good service, they quickly diagnosed what was wrong with my car, were extraordinarily helpful, and hey, my car isn't smoking anymore :D

All work was completed on time and costs were as expected. We love John's and use them for all our auto service needs.
