    Good deal? Nahhhh, no car fax history of it ever being to a dealer for any work. That's not a good sign.

    Tricky, tricky, remember you are the buyer. Take as long as you need, do the research enough, bring someone who can check the car out for you. No matter the pressure, you don't have to buy it. That was the case for my coworker, I am glad I was able to go see the car before she made a mistake. Funny how the seller kept calling and bothering her for a car that isn't even worth the amount they are asking. Leaks everywhere, suspension, axle, everything is leaking. They saw her and tried to push it on her, karma. The tires have rivers, that's a $700 investment. Front rotors are done, $600 job minimum. Alignment $140 Axles $500-1000 It needs a valve reseal job, that's another $1,000 minimum. Sheesh, that's a lot of work for a purchase for anyone.

    ZAS Motors had the Viper I dreamed of, they were great! They are an amazing family run local business!

    Happy that my wife and I purchased our dream car from a local, family car sales dealership! Thank you Zamir, Thomas, and our sales rep JERSEY for a wonderful car buying experience:) I've looking for this model car with low miles for 2 years and here I found it 1 mile away from our home in Kensington! Do yourself a favor and check these guys out. I'd write more but we're going for a cruise up the coast with the top down on this beauty:)

    Our new Jeep!!

    Anthony & family from San Diego... We went to ZAS Motors to look at a new Jeep for my daughter and met Benjamin. Not only was the car as described, but Benjamin took care of me and my girls like we were part of his family. He was very personable and I really trusted his integrity. When we came to pick up the car, Benjamin put the big red bow on it and took pictures of us picking up our new car... It was truly a great experience and we actually had fun buying a new car! Thank you to Benjamin and all the team at ZAS Motors!

    See all

    Yes, this was an expensive repair but it was absolutely no fault of Allman Family Auto. The issue…read morestems from Chrysler's Pentastar cylinder heads, which are a known problem. I always do my research, and unfortunately my assessment turned out to be correct even before Allman completed their diagnostics. Mike at Allman spent a great deal of time walking me through different scenarios and options, providing detailed estimates for each. I also requested additional estimates, including a full engine replacement, so I could make a fully informed decision. While their estimate was less than dealership service departments, it was slightly higher than another independent shop. After researching the difference, I found it came down to Allman using OEM parts rather than cheaper aftermarket parts made overseas. I don't use cheap parts on my vehicles, so that made the decision easy. Once I felt fully comfortable, I chose Allman and I'm glad I did. Mike kept me informed throughout the process, and my Jeep was back on the road even earlier than estimated. Thank you, Allman Family Auto, for the honesty, transparency, and quality work.

After I raised concerns about what I believed was a misdiagnosis and being overcharged for repairs that did not fix the original issue with my vehicle, I reached out to the shop directly to address the situation. To their credit, once I called them out and explained the ongoing problem, they agreed to take another look at my car. Upon re-evaluation, they acknowledged that the initial repair did not resolve the root issue. They worked on the vehicle again and ultimately fixed the original problem at no additional charge. I appreciate that they took responsibility and made the effort to correct the situation. While my initial experience was frustrating and felt misleading, I do recognize their willingness to make things right after the fact. I hope moving forward they improve their diagnostic process to prevent similar issues for other customers. Updating my review to reflect both the initial experience and the resolution.

    Paykan Auto in San Diego? Oh man, buckle up, because you just asked for the…read moreyou-can't-handle-the-truth truth about these guys. Most mechanics in SD see a car with a weird noise, a dashboard lit up like a Christmas tree, or something that's been Frankenstein-ed together from three different continents, and they immediately hit the panic button: "Nah, too complicated, take it to the dealer," or "That's gonna cost you an arm, a leg, and your firstborn." They run faster than you do when someone yells "free In-N-Out." But Paykan Auto? These legends look at that same nightmare job--the timing belt on a 20-year-old import that's been babied by someone who thinks "maintenance" means prayer, the transmission that's been slipping since the Obama administration, the electrical gremlins that make your car randomly play polka music--and they just crack their knuckles and say, "Challenge accepted." They've been fixing cars (and selling solid used ones) at 5486 El Cajon Blvd for years, with reviews screaming honesty, fair prices, and straight-up wizardry. One person literally said their family has used them as mechanics for 15+ years while buying multiple cars there. Another called Hadi and the crew "THE BEST!!!!" They tackle the stuff that makes other shops sweat: weird European mods, beat-up daily drivers on their last legs, you name it. It's like if Jack Reacher was a mechanic--quiet, no BS, gets the job done right, and leaves you wondering why everyone else is so scared of hard work. You roll in thinking your car's doomed, you roll out thinking, "Wait, that was actually affordable AND it drives better than when I bought it?" Truth bomb: In a city full of mechanics who ghost you harder than a bad Tinder date, Paykan Auto is the rare shop that doesn't flinch. They handle the repairs everyone else runs from... and they do it with a smile, fair pricing, and zero drama. If your car's throwing a tantrum that would make a toddler jealous, take it to Paykan. Just don't blame me when you become one of those people who starts every story with, "These guys at Paykan fixed my [insert horror story here] like it was nothing." (Pro tip: Call ahead--Hadi and the team are busy saving San Diego's sanity one scary repair at a time.)

    To the Management Team (SERVICE DEPARTMENT) at DCH Honda of Mission Valley,…read more I am writing to share my experience during my visit on April 24, 2026, regarding an oil change for my Kia Carnival. While the visit began with significant challenges, it concluded with an impressive display of accountability that changed my entire outlook on your dealership. Areas for Operational Improvement I would like to offer constructive feedback regarding the intake process. My appointment was scheduled for 7:30 AM specifically to ensure timely service; however, upon arrival, the service lane lacked clear guidance. With three lanes filling up and service advisors moving between the garage and the vehicles, there was no defined queue management. This resulted in customers being served out of order, rendering the concept of an "appointment" feel ineffective. Furthermore, there was a breakdown in communication regarding the scope of my Lifetime Oil and Filter Change warranty. I had to provide my own documentation to confirm that chassis lubrication was included in my service contract. Additionally, despite scheduling the appointment in advance specifically to allow your team to order parts for my vehicle, the parts were not on-site when I arrived, resulting in an avoidable delay. Commendation for Simona Deloeste Despite these frustrations, I want to highlight the exceptional service provided by my advisor, Simona Deloeste. When the parts shortage was discovered, Simona could have easily deflected blame, but instead, she chose a path of radical honesty. She personally apologized and, impressively, took full accountability for the oversight. Her integrity and professionalism completely turned the experience around. She kept me informed throughout the wait and handled a difficult situation with such grace and maturity that she convinced me to maintain my lifetime service contract with your dealership rather than canceling it. Simona is a tremendous asset to DCH Honda of Mission Valley. Her ability to own a mistake and turn a frustrated customer into a loyal one is a rare skill. I requested to speak with a service manager during my visit to share this feedback and recognize Simona's performance, but I was unfortunately unable to connect with leadership. I hope this review reaches the appropriate management so that Simona can be recognized for her integrity and the high standard of service she upholds. I look forward to my next service visit and hope that the operational issues in the service lane are addressed to match the level of excellence Simona brings to your team every day.
