I made an appointment at 7 AM to drop off my car. I arrived early since I didn’t know what traffic was going to be like and everything appeared opened and lit up. So I walked to the office and offered to wait outside until they opened, but they welcome me in Enthusiastically and started working on my paperwork immediately! From that point forward, they always kept me informed what was going on, and I was extremely satisfied with their work. You can often tell how good a mechanic is by the cleanliness of their operation and their place was spotless! They have earned my business for the rest of my days!

I could not be happier with the service I received at Japanese Auto Center. The staff is always warm, friendly, and attentive. They ask all the right questions to get to the root of any issue. I came in for a routine oil change, a smog check, and to have my brakes fixed, and they made the entire process easy.
They walked me through every detail and provided a clear estimate upfront so there were no surprises. Even though they were clearly busy, as most good auto shops are, they stayed organized and handled everything seamlessly. It truly feels like you are working with family.
I highly recommend Japanese Auto Center for anyone looking for honest, reliable, and quality service.

Took my car to Japanese Auto center on January 5th to have my car inspected. Eve helped me at the desk. She called me later that day to give me an update on what they needed to do to my car. I gave her the ok for them to fix my car. I was called on January 8th and Eve let me know that the car was ready to be picked up. I am very pleased with the outcome of the work that was done to my car. I will definitely return if I need any services done. The radio wasn't working in the car and someone fixed it for me, so that was a blessing. Thank you Japanese Auto center!

Words cannot express the gratitude for the service I received at Japanese auto center. I live in San Diego and my husband and I drove to LA New Year’s Eve . Long story short we had to have our vehicle towed and AAA recommended Japanese auto Center. Our wipers stop working while we were driving in the rain. Due to us having to be back in SD by Monday we couldn’t get the wipers repaired but Kevin at the repair center ordered water repellant to put on the windows so we can at least drive back home safely in the rain. Thank God it was only light showers and the repellent worked well. Even though we did not get the car repaired there, the staff and Kevin were so accommodating and nice. They put safety first and didn’t complain or stop assisting us just because we didn’t have the car repaired at their shop. True and genuine people working at Japanese Auto Center. Thank you Kevin for all your help. Kena & Billy- San Diego 1.2.26

I came in on Monday, 01/05 to get my brake pads replaced and the rotors resurfaced. Service was fast and friendly, and the price I paid was 2.5x less than what the dealership had quoted. Excellent service and communication. I will be bringing my car here for service moving forward.
