I chose Johns based on the owner's response, offering us a repair option the next day (New Year's Eve) at a reasonable price. This is a family-owned and hands-on operated business. It's located just east of the Albertsons on East Valley Pkwy. The shop is large. Service was excellent, as was telephone and text communication with the shop. Overall, I had an outstanding auto repair experience here and look forward to using them again for auto repairs.

My Prius has been having problems since I bought it and I took it here in 2024, for the front right passenger side. I was told it's a normal part of the braking process. I explained it is a braking/suspension issue and they were unable to find anything wrong with it. I paid in full for a diagnostic and they told me nothing was abnormal but to bring it back if it gets worse. So I called today because it has been an ongoing issue but it's the worst it's ever been even after several tire replacements and alignments, etc. I was told today that I would have to pay 180 for an entirely new diagnostic. I already paid once for nothing. I am not paying you again for nothing. Thanks for nothing.

Michael provided a much more reasonable quote, but what amazed me was after I arrived, he opened the hood to show me what was happening. It turns out the expensive removal and replacement wasn't needed. Michael is an honest mechanic. Sometimes as a woman, you're never 100% sure the auto shop is being fair when it comes to pricey repairs, especially when you're driving a reliable car. I would give them 10-stars if possible! Thank you, Miachel for fixing my car, your expertise, and I really appreciated your honesty. I'm recommending him to everyone I know.

He has worked on my vehicles for more than 8 years and keeps them running well. Prices and turn around are good. Juan up front is knowledgeable and courteous.

He definitely has killer skills and for someone as phenomenally talented as he is, he is disarmingly humble!

BUYER BEWARE…read more Unfortunately I had to come and replace my once GLOWING TESTIMONIAL with a now, regrettably revised version, now that I have all the facts. Fact of the matter is that after having spent $4596.39 at this place that OVERLOOKED MAJOR COMPONENTS during my vehicle service as verified by Encinitas Ford I was obligated to update my review accordingly. The facts are as follows; 1) I am on disability and only get $1200/monthly and these people totally extorted me by not servicing my vehicle correctly 2) I trusted them to take care of my vehicle and they didn't (BUYER BEWARE/Careful who you trust) 3) I had to incur EXTRA COSTS as a low income person to inspect their work that substantiated this place overlooked key components related to the service requested (TRANSMISSION SERVICE) 4) After spending FIVE MONTHS OF MY INCOME my truck is STILL NOT UP TO PAR. I will be paying off this debt for the next year and a half of my life all while my truck is not even repaired correctly.

They also have strong industry relationships that help them source quality parts at fair prices, which can save customers money compared to going directly to a dealership. What stood out most to me was their transparency. They took the time to explain what actually needed to be fixed versus what could wait. The work was done professionally, communication was great throughout the process, and I never felt pressured into unnecessary repairs. If you're looking for a trustworthy mechanic in Escondido that does quality work at fair prices, I'd absolutely recommend Fair Auto Repair. 2011 Honda Accord 2 Door EX-L V6

The next day, I take the truck out with my fiancé behind me with hazard lights on to go to the shop. I have trouble locating the shop and when I call to confirm the location, Dave answered again but doesn't remember who I am. I refresh his memory and he tells me he's just too busy with a bunch of "things" and too much "stuff" on his plate so he can't look at the truck. He didn't try to actually schedule a time in the future to meet me, but he told me to "just keep trying, man". Needless to say, I don't like taking dangerous vehicles on the road just to have my time completely wasted. I hope Dave gets his "stuff" sorted out but I won't bother trying to come back.
