Miramar Auto Repair - Japanese Auto Plus - San Diego (CA)

Caroline Boucher Great mechanic! Quality Auto went above and beyond to complete my repair on short notice. I shipped my car from Hawaii and picked it up from the port on a Friday. I could tell it needed repairs before driving cross country Monday. They got me in on Saturday and stayed open late to complete my diagnostic and repair. Fairly priced and great customer service. They walked me through what was wrong and didn’t charge me for anything I didn’t need. I wouldn’t take my car anywhere else if I lived in San Diego! Lucky I found them!

Tyson Huynh Edit 7/28/25: Just this past week I came down to SD again for vacation and was supposed to drive 7 hrs back home when I ran into an oil leak. Booked an appointment with Convoy Auto for Monday 7/28 and they were able to diagnose the issue and fix it within the day. Car ran smooth after and I made the 7 hr drive back home. Great shop, very professional and friendly. They repair your car fast and within reasonable price. Thank you once again, Joe and team. 2022: I had recently taken a trip to San Diego and my check engine light had turned on for my Toyota Sienna mid way through my trip. I found Convoy Auto near the place I was staying at and brought my car in for service. Sean and everyone at Convoy Auto were professional and friendly. Convoy Auto was able to diagnose the check engine light quickly and gave me a very reasonable quote. Very honest and trustworthy shop!

silly sarah This review has been a decade in the making. I have been coming here for years. They care about what they do and they do it well. Its a small business. I have tried to take my car elsewhere and just end up taking it here to be fixed after taking it elsewhere. I dont trust anyone else with my car. If I could give more stars, I would.

June Rebecca McCaughey The guys at Marina automotive were very helpful! Super knowledgeable, so kind, and fair. Communication is great! They got me in and out in one day. I went in for a general maintenance check. They checked all kinds of things like fluids oil, tires ll, filters, breaks etc. It did not cover alignment check, but they did recommended me to go get them checked. I will be going back!

Cara McMahon Marvin and Eric are really the best. These fellas are honest, friendly, dependable, and value customer service. The prices are incredibly reasonable. Their team do a great job and are equally nice. Its the most pleasant experience that I have found in automotive care. I have no complaints and I am an ongoing and returning customer. I dont generally write reviews, thats how strongly I recommend this small business! Support small business!

Douglas Peterson Honest and so competent. I’ve been there many times and we’re always so impressed. Highly recommended.

Steven Marsh I went here today for an oil change, and yes, the shop is open even though it says temporarily closed. Lee is honest, prices cheaply, and has always been reliable for me. Hes my favorite shop for oil changes and if you are asking for something specific to be done.

Melissa Hocanson I have a 1966 mustang that needed lots of work. It’s my daily driver now. It has been extremely challenging finding a mechanic that first would work on the car and second do a good job. Robert at John’s automotive was my first point of contact and he has been extremely professional, organized and detailed. I came in and explained what I needed and he scheduled a time that I could bring the car in - it wasn’t right away but I appreciated that he didn’t take the car until they were able to work on it. After I dropped off the car they sent me an email with photos and a checklist of things that were good and things that need work. I was very impressed I have been to a lot of mechanics and I have never received a report that detailed. Mike is the mechanic who has worked on my car and has explained in detail what was wrong, what he’s done and what I should expect. It’s challenging working on these old cars but Mike has the experience and expertise needed to get the job done. I love my car and I’m extremely grateful that I found John’s automotive otherwise I don’t think I’d be driving my car. I highly recommend this company. Robert and Mike are the best !!!

Nguyen A very honest veteran owned mechanic shop. Took care of my BMW X4 for a quick tune up. Will come back in the future!

O Key (Kyana) David and Oscar were amazing. Super educating and real about what was wrong. They got my car back fast just when they said it would be done. David was super honest about pricing and was reasonably priced compared to those commission shops feeding you BS.
