I can't recommend European Autocare and One Stop Shop highly enough…read more I was first introduced to European Autocare when AAA towed my Porsche Cayenne there after a strange issue where the audio system kept shutting down and draining the battery. The AAA driver recommended the shop, and I'm so glad he did. George, the owner, is a genuinely kind and honest gentleman. He spent about 20 minutes carefully diagnosing the problem and told me, very transparently, that it wasn't something his shop could fix--that I would need to go to the dealer for a replacement part. He didn't charge me a dime for his time. That level of honesty is rare. Since then, I've been going to him for regular maintenance on my older vehicle, and every experience has been excellent. The team is consistently professional, knowledgeable, and efficient. Pricing has always been fair--no pressure, no upselling, and absolutely no price gouging. Recently, I needed help with a bumper issue on another car and found out George also runs a body shop in San Marcos. Even though they're normally closed on weekends, he made a special exception to meet me there. When I asked if I could pick up the car at his Rancho Bernardo location after the repair, he didn't hesitate to accommodate. On top of that, my car was extremely low on gas, and he told me not to worry about it--he'd take care of it so I could get back without any issues. That kind of above-and-beyond service truly earns lifelong customers. It's rare to find an auto shop that combines honesty, skill, fairness, and genuine care for customers. George and his team set the standard. I wholeheartedly recommend European Autocare in Rancho Bernardo and One Stop Shop in San Marcos.

Two recent experiences. First a 2017 Mercedes 320E $1,900. 14 Days…read more An Active Light was replaced. The replacement took 10 days. Two weeks. I was disappointed Johnny did not point out the hood was scratched, so I had to go to the owner, George to get that repaired. The repair took a long time for a simple item then the car was damaged. When I complained they were not easy to deal with. Repair #2 Valve Gasket Covers on my 2005 ML500 $780. The job was done in less than a day, but when the car came back it smelled of gas so badly I called European Auto Care back but was advised they would not be able to review the problem for at least a week. The recently repaired valve cover still leaks, my new mechanic found a stripped screw among the at least five (5) loose screws - whilst re-securing the cover. European Auto Care needs to address some important issues.

If you're looking for an honest, skilled, and reliable mechanic, look no further…read more Aaron and his entire team are phenomenal. Excellent customer service is clearly at the heart of their culture, and it trickles straight down from Aaron himself. He is exceptionally personable, trustworthy, and straightforward. Instead of trying to upsell unnecessary work or temporary quick-fixes, Aaron gives you the honest truth about what your car actually needs so repairs are done right the first time. It is rare to find an auto shop with this level of integrity and top-notch service. I cannot recommend Aaron and his crew highly enough!

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?

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!

DO NOT TRUST THIS SHOP! I normally do not leave negative…read morereviews, but I feel obligated to share my experience. I took my high-performance vehicle here for a routine checkup a few months ago, and since then the car has not driven the same. I also noticed a significant increase in mileage after the visit, which raised concerns for me. When I brought these concerns up to the owner, I personally did not feel the explanations addressed the situation adequately. Because of this experience, I would not feel comfortable returning or recommending this shop to others. I encourage anyone considering this shop to carefully document their vehicle mileage and condition before and after service.

Luckily, after they refilled the A.C. coolant, I told them to stop working on it and all it needed was a new battery that I purchased somewhere else. NOW, I don't know where this August scheister got all these wonderful reviews but they CAN'T BE LEGIT REVIEWS. It seemed strange to me that I NEVER saw any other clients at this place. There are even not any seats in there where people can sit and wait. AUGUST, YOU ARE A FRAUD AND LIAR. IWIL REPORT YOU TO AAA AND MANY OTHER AGENCIES. WHERE IS MY HARD COPY OF THIS ALLEGED WARRANTEE? WHY ARE YOU PRETENDING ON A 71-YEAR-OLD ELDERLY PERSON? Basically, you are pathetic. Just remember that your bad karma will come back to you and bite you in the derriere!
