Once again John's Automotive has come to the rescue. Our 2002 Firebird's overheating problem was diagnosed and remedied keeping the car running safely and our driveway clean. A 20 year old car need's TLC and John's Automotive is keeping us on the road and feeling secure with their warrantied professional work.

A very pleasant and efficient visit; Mathew was very quick and competent. Everything went smoothly as I have come to expect.

Johns automotive was very proactive on repairs and getting the appropriate parts to decrease the time I was without my vehicle inan insurance claim for malicious mischief damaging my vehicle.

Great service as always!

Thanks Brian and crew for getting my car in and out with a smog test.

I worked with Matt to try and figure out why my check-engine light came on and it was quite an experience. They did a full point inspection and determined the PCV valved needed to be replaced. Okay, no problem. Unfortunately, the part was defective and broke the next day. I had to get a tow off the highway back to the shop (not the end of the world, my car insurance had free towing). They replaced the part for free and off I went. The next day the check-engine light came on again, on Christmas eve! Obviously, I had to wait until after the Holidays to bring it back a third time. Matt was really apologetic and explained to me that the check-engine light came on because of the secondary air pump, which really can only be diagnosed when the engine is cold. As they replaced it, they also rechecked the entire fuel injection system and replaced the O2 sensor, MAF, and purge valve for free. They test drove the vehicle as well to ensure everything was running smoothly. Overall this was an unfortunate and unusual situation, but Matt made the experience much less stressful, keeping me updated every step of the way.

I've never had a mechanic work with me as positively as with John's Automotive. Never before have I had a mechanic explain what could be done later, as normally they would push everything to be done as important.

I took my car in for an oil change. It took six hours. The mechanics told me that my water pump was leaking and needed replaced. I took it to Toyota for a second opinion and was told the pump was not leaking. Toyota will be taking care of my car from now on. They are approved by AAA and give a discount.

I wouldn’t use anyone else in San Diego! Highly recommend! Honest and thorough!
