“On 9/13/2025, I brought my vehicle in for a battery and timing tensioner replacement. Antonio delivered excellent service, the pricing was fair, and I will happily return for future maintenance.”
“I went in for a smog check first thing in the morning without an appointment. They were kind and took me in - and were even quicker than they told me!! I’m very grateful for their willingness to fit me in and for their friendly interactions - I will definitely be going here again!”
“Went in and got my lifted Chevy Silverado smogged. Great customer service & very professional! I even heard a customer before me talking about how amazing their service was in a previous time she was at this location. Took my truck right away and it didn’t take long at all to get it smogged here, passed of course :)! I will definitely be coming back I appreciate the shop and how they handle their customers. I won’t be going anywhere else after this visit, this is the spot. Definitely recommend!”
“I have brought my pickup truck and my Mustang here and have always had excellent, honest, and timely service. This is the ONLY repair shop I would recommend. Quality parts and warranty is a huge plus! 10/10”
“Was having car issues when I found this shop, I’m not from SD so it was difficult for me to find a place to fix my car and this shop went above and beyond to get me back on the road even assisted me in getting a towtruck to make it to the shop. Very friendly and great communication. Would definitely recommend”
“Caliber's staff is quite friendly and personable, and they took my Volvo V60 within a week of my dropping it off. Jacob even gave me a ride home. Their technician found and replaced a weak leak detection pump in the EVAP system which caused a P0442 code, triggering the CEL. I bought and delivered the part from the local dealer to bring to them before leaving for the bay area that weekend. The car was finished the Monday I returned despite it being a tricky job. My only complaint would be that the drivers seat bottom was so visably dirty that it took two automotive wipes to clean it up before I even sat in it. The interior is cream colored and it does exhibit dirt a little too well. Perhaps a floor mat on the seat would have helped this matter. Overall, I'm quite satisfied and my car should pass inspection when the time inevitably comes.”
“Yes I will be cliche and say this is an honest mechanic. The best? I don’t know. A mechanic is like a dentist or barber, you only need one. I’ve moved around a bit and met a few mechanics. This one I feel is the most no nonsense, least upsell, straight up with you. In this modern society? Gold.”
“Excellent service, super knowledgeable, superb customer care. Mike and Grant are terrific communicators, honest guys, and their pricing is fair. Am grateful I've got a great place to go!”
“Great auto shop. Everything was quick and easy. They were very thorough with inspecting my car, but were also very honest and did not recommend any repairs that weren’t necessary yet. Great experience here and would recommend”
“Fast, efficient, and all around a fantastic experience. They didn't nickel and penny me for minor problems and have the most reasonable rates by far in the area.
I always appreciate work with you all!”
“I cannot recommend John’s Automotive Care highly enough. I brought them a used truck I was seriously considering purchasing and asked them to perform an independent pre-purchase inspection. David and the team were incredibly thorough, professional, and straightforward with me.
This wasn’t a quick glance around the vehicle. They went through it carefully and documented everything with detailed notes and photos. They found significant suspension and steering problems, a leaking differential, a completely failed axle boot, worn suspension components, cooling system issues, brakes needing attention, and multiple electrical/interior problems that I never would have discovered from a normal test drive.
The inspection completely changed my decision about purchasing the truck and potentially saved me thousands of dollars in immediate repairs. The technician was very candid with me about the overall condition of the vehicle and took the time to explain what he was seeing rather than simply handing me a checklist.
What makes this even more impressive is that I paid a greatly reduced amount for the inspection with my AAA discount. Considering the amount of time, documentation, photographs, and expertise they put into it, that may be the best inspection money I have ever spent on a vehicle.
If you're considering buying a used vehicle in the San Diego/El Cajon area, especially from a dealership, I would absolutely recommend having John’s Automotive Care inspect it before you sign anything. I was about to spend more than $25k on this truck, and these guys gave me exactly the independent information I needed to make an informed decision.
Thank you to Anthony, David, and everyone at John’s. You guys absolutely earned a five-star review from me.”
“I brought my GLC 43 Coupe here after having a suspension malfunction warning and the roughest ride ever since we bought the car. They diagnosed it and found out the air suspension compressor had gone out. They replaced it and now the car rides so smooth again! Everyone was super professional and walked me through everything they were doing. They were also way more reasonable than the dealer and I felt like I could actually trust them. Definitely my go to place for my Mercedes now. Highly recommend Clifton Mercedes Independent Service & Repair!”
“Excellent work! From the first call to completion I was well taken care of and involved in every step. And I left with a clean car! A wash to make my already smiling face smile bigger! Highly recommend.”
“This is my new go to auto mechanic. They had my truck up and running in no time. Very friendly staff. Makes you feel like family. Great honest prices no sneaky side charges. Love this place and the employees that work there. I only wish I could give 100 stars”
“Been taking my cars here since I was able to drive. My entire family comes here and I even have had other families convert over to Volkers. Top quality work at reasonable prices. Plus, the bathroom is the cleanest you’ll see at any mechanics.”
“I regularly go to this shop for my van. They always do a great job at reasonable price. But this time they performed a miracle! The night before my daughter's birthday my alternator went out and my battery died. And I had no way to get here there now. I dropped it off over night with them and they started on it first thing the next day. They were able to get it all fixed up before my daughter's birthday! And we made it to the party on time!!!”
“Okay, Francisco, the owner, is amazing! I walked in without appointment and he took care of my little o' fiat with no hesitation! Price was amazing, staff was great. 5 stars all around. I definitely will be coming back for all of my fiat needs! Thank you for the conversation and I made a new friend! 💯🙏🏾”

“Such a great experience! He was able to get me in right away and took the time to look at my car and figure out where the sound I was hearing was coming from without charging me just to diagnose it. He showed me exactly what the issue was and walked me through everything, which I really appreciated. The pricing felt very fair, communication was straightforward, and I was in and out in about an hour with the problem completely fixed. I’ll definitely be coming back if I ever need anything else!”
“Sam at Sunshine Auto was amazing! He was able to quickly fit me in for a pre-purchase inspection on a car I was considering. Sam was patient, knowledgeable, and honest. The inspection was thorough and complete. He took the time to go through everything with me and what the cost for repairs would be. I would definitely recommend Sunshine Auto Repair! Thanks Sam!!”
“So happy I found this place! The Honda dealership gave me a quote for some general maintenance that I could not afford. I reached out to Sam's Quality Auto Care and they offered significantly more affordable service. My husband also brought his car in for service on his brakes and spark plugs and wow the car drives like it's brand new now. The owner is very friendly too. We will keep coming to this shop!”
“This place was very accomodating. I left my car over the weekend to be serviced, and they gave me a loaner car to drive at no extra cost. The owner is a good dude. I even got some parking tickets while the loaner was in my possession and again, there was no extra hidden fees or funny business upon picking up my car. They only asked for the cost of the tickets and were always super professional and courteous.”
“I had a series of repairs done at Import Auto Service recently, and I can't praise Sean and Tim enough. Their expertise and customer care were exceptional. They explained everything clearly, kept me updated throughout, and ensured each repair was done meticulously. Their friendly approach and dedication make them my go-to for any future auto needs. Highly recommend!”
“I purchased a 2010 Toyota 4 Runner 4 years ago and brought to SD Trux to do an inspection to make sure I didn’t buy a lemon. They provided a detailed inspection sheet with pictures and status of particular portions of the vehicle that were either in good condition, needed repair, or would need service within a specified amount of time/miles. I was beyond impressed with their professionalism and mechanical and technical proficiency. I’ve now been bringing my 4Runner here for every service and wouldn’t go anywhere else. I drive to LA a lot for work and I’m almost at 200,000 miles and my vehicle still runs fantastic thanks to the service provided by everyone at San Diego Trux. Thank you.”
“This mechanic is so honest. I am going to be in the desert for a while in extreme heat and I had read online that an old serpentine belt can cause the car to break down. He was honest and told me It doesn't need to be changed and that its in good condition. I left without him taking a dollar from me. I can imagine that most will do it anyway and try to sell you unnecessary work. I will be recommending this mechanic and going to him for all my future car needs.”
“My son took his Jetta to get his brakes done and they did a great job. I had a brake line go out in my jeep. Had it towed there. No nonsense, found the problem. Ron found my axel bearing was bad and my master cylinder needed replacement. (I knew it was bad, it was leaking) You don’t find a lot of mechanics that are honest. No price gouging at this place. If you want a legit place to take your car, take it here. I’m a retired airline captain, trust me good mechanics are hard to come by!”
“Edwin is the best mechanic I have ever had x10. I recommend that all my friends go to Bowman’s. He goes above and beyond to take care of what I need. So grateful for him - he just makes life easier!”
“After spending months on trying to fix my 1991 Camaro witb no luck.I gave Nick And Joe a Call to see if they could help me diagnose the issue because there is no code coming up. They had my car for a couple of weeks and where able to not just diagnose but also fix an electrical gremlin on my ECU.
Thank you guys”
“I just got my 2015 VW Golf TDI SEL 6 spd manual back from this shop. Wow Julio and his team are flawless, my original transmission, my 3rd and 4th gear were woren out and it would pop out of gear. I purchased a used transmission and clutch kit and Julio and his got my car back ASAP. They start working on my car this past Monday and I got it back today Wednesday 9-23-26”
“Sean and his team were amazing with their service and treated me like a family member as soon as I came in. Couldn’t recommend enough, support local businesses!”

“I would give them 10 stars if I could! Jeff was great at communicating and changing the transmission on my van. With a big job like this, I called around and go several estimates. They were the best price and the best warranty. Also, while they were doing the job they notices a problem or two and fixed those very inexpensively. I would recommend them without hesitation... and chat gpt said the same thing!”
