Had an 8:30 a.m. Saturday appointment for a check engine light and several other items. The check…read moreengine light turned out to be a cylinder misfire, and what I thought might become a very expensive engine repair ended up being much more reasonable than expected. The team at Phan's diagnosed the problem, explained everything clearly, and completed the repairs professionally. They also took care of several smaller items while the car was there, which was very convenient. It's not always easy to find an honest, reliable independent mechanic, but we had an excellent experience and would definitely recommend Phan's Auto Repair. As a bonus, Stars & Stripes gas station and car wash is right around the corner, so you can fill up, get a great car wash, and call it a day.

I respected that they did not upcharge after my quote, I paid exactly what my quote was. Other autoshops seemed to want more and their quotes were just the minimum price. Second time I brought it in for diagnosis and inspection and they quickly found that all I needed was oil change. They were kind enough to give a significant discount for the inspection fee. They seem to be good in telling you what needs to be fixed and not overcharging or telling you stuff needs done when it's fine

They were wonderful from the first phone call to my arrival 20 minutes later, to the actual repair 10 minutes later, all at a very reasonable price!

Thank you Katie and Juan!

Bottom Line Upfront: Miramar Auto Repair is one of the best values of any auto shop in San Diego…read more Jason and Pedro were exceptional in taking care of me, and finding a solution to a very technical challenge. I brought in my Honda Ridgeline for an issue with my AC. Jason worked with me at the front-desk and went above and beyond to understand my issue and the troubleshooting I had already done. He explained to me CONCISELY what the feasible issue may be, and how they were going to approach a diagnosis. Jason was extremely knowledgeable, and followed up promptly to discuss the fix. Pedro was also exceptional. He found the issue (rodent-chewed wires) and repaired it perfectly. When I picked up my car, he was as excited as I was to have helped me. Before Miramar Auto, I took my truck to the Honda dealer, and they charged twice as much for a diagnosis, only to tell me that I would need a new compressor (incorrect diagnosis) and that it would cost twice as much as I ended up paying out the door at Miramar auto. I couldn't believe how easy Miramar Auto made it. To say that Jason, Pedro, and Miramar Auto are honest, fair, and made me feel taken care of... would be an understatement. They have rightfully earned another lifelong customer. Thank you Miramar Auto!

Highly recommend for road trip prep!…read more This is an amazing place to get your vehicle inspected before a long road trip. I booked online, noted my concerns in the text box, and dropped my car off the next day. After checking in at the office, I walked Joey through my concerns and opted for a Post-Purchase Inspection. Joey sent over the findings quickly and gave me his honest, upfront opinion on what needed immediate attention before my trip versus what maintenance could wait until I reached my destination. He also provided a clear copy of the inspection quotes so there were no surprises. In the end, they completed the full inspection, replaced the car battery, and fixed a coolant leak for around $550+ (including taxes). I definitely recommend this shop! Pro-tip: Try to get there early in the day, as on-site parking and road traffic can get a bit hectic later on.

Waited for my oil change today and it was very quick, roughly 30 minutes as it didn't seem busy. Service was affordable, and very nice, informative people.

Thank you so much, I appreciate it!

Kassandra was also very welcoming and thoughtful, she even recommended a small bakery nearby if I wanted a comfortable place to relax while waiting. As a woman, it can sometimes be difficult to find a mechanic you feel comfortable with and can trust not to take advantage of you. This was absolutely the best place to go,I felt respected, informed, and completely at ease throughout the whole process. Overall, an AMAZING experience. I truly appreciate the great customer service!

Are you going to warranty issues that arise to the switching to an oil that would void a mfg…read morewarranty? I bet not! Higher viscosity leads to higher pressures which lead to seals leaking and failing. I'm really surprised you haven't researched this. How about the leaking oil filter a day after install? Seems like a sure way to get more money outta a customer once their engine gets starved of oil. How about the sloppy work with oil left all over my car? Lack of care and integrity. How about the scratches from resting my tires on the paint of my car? Lazy and inconsiderate. Pulled from the article that copied and pasted "Engine Design Changes: Newer Toyota engines are designed with tighter tolerances and specific lubrication needs that necessitate these thinner oils, such as OW-16 or OW-8." Exactly my 2019 Lexus ux250 is a newer Toyota engine if you weren't aware , so why are changing it?
