We had been going to the dealer and have been looking for an independent who provided excellent service and good prices. We were happy with the service and prices at A+ Japanese Auto. We will be back.

I took my 2012 Acura TSX here for service yesterday. I needed a few simple maintenance items performed, and they quoted me about $30 less than the closest Acura dealership. I am not mechanically inclined and don't have a way of quantifying the quality of that work, but in terms of customer service the experience was excellent.- the staff is very friendly. I worked with Rob- they have a shuttle which will take you to nearby restaurants/coffee shops, since they don't have an on-site lounge. there is a starbucks about a mile away- they found an additional minor issue while working on my car. rather than trying to upsell me service, they contacted the acura dealership, figured out my car was still under warranty, and gave me a contact to call there to complete the work. this is really A+!

Thank you to Justin & Team for there great service. I took my Nissan cube in to there shop. I received the best service. Justin went above & beyond to take care of my vehicle made sure I new everything that was going on with my car. I have. Been to other places and I have never received this kind of service not to mention when I picked up my car everyone was very nice and welcoming. You don't find that kind of customer service very much anymore. I don't see me going anywhere else for my car. It's worth the trip coming from San jose. Again a big Thank You to Justin & Team. You are definitely an A+ shop. Rosie

I have been a customer of A+ Japanese Auto Repair for over 15 years and they have always delivered top-notch service. This is particularly true for my current vehicle (2002 Toyota Prius) and the last one (1992 Honda Prelude). The entire A+ team (service managers, technicians, and the owners) truly take care of aging vehicles at every appointment. If you care about the longevity, safety, and performance of your automobile, I highly recommend A+ Japanese Auto Repair. They know what they are doing and they get it right!

Thank You Susan. You have been an awesome family member of our shop for over 15 Years. I know your prelude is still running strong with another owner and your generation one prius is over 200k miles and still running great with many more miles to go. We appreciate you allowing us to help you keep your vehicle's maintained. Rob Lucas - Senior Service Consultant - 650-595-2277 aplusjapaneseautorepair.

I had previously brought my Acura MDX for minor services, and this time came for pretty major work. These guys know what they are doing, and deliver with great customer service. At one point we encountered a problem, but I felt they handled it fairly and added skin in the game.

The plus is that the people working here always seem to keep in contact with you and are good at customer service. It is also a good alternative to going to a car dealer for repairs. Overall a pretty good place to go to get the repairs done right. Some of the bad things are that I agree with one of the other reviews that the prices are high sometimes.I did have a laundry list of items to be taken care of and since I was in need of an oil change and my vehicle uses full synthetic oil only, they said that oil change is around $102.00, and then right away wanted to sell me the $80.00 spring special, which may have saved money, but I'm not really sure because I brought my own 5 quart jug of full synthetic oil for them to use for the oil change, which costs about $35-$40 at Autozone. One thing I wanted done was to change the aftermarket lowering springs back to the original springs, which I provided. So, it turns out that one of the struts on the front had a bunch of play in it, and low and behold all of a sudden I'm told that both front struts need to be replaced, so I say okay because my car is 12 years old and they say they usually replace them in pairs. So, now with alignment I'm all of a sudden up to about $900.00. I'm told they come as an assembly with the spring on it and fully assembled for installation. So, where did my original springs go that I provided? They only use factory parts and they are at retail from the Honda dealer, which is why it seems expensive often.Then, getting to the rear spring replacement. The bolts are seized from the rust because my car was in a salt used state in the winter time. Now, the rear shocks have to be replaced. To sum it up, I had a few other things on the laundry list I could not take care of because it would have brought the total up to way more than I already spent. They did do some things as courtesy like check out my ABS light without charge, and replaced a brake light that wasn't out when I went in. I wanted to get the stuff taken care of so I paid the high dollar amount for mostly replacement of front and rear struts and shocks, alignment, brake and clutch fluid flush and fill, and the discounted spring special.When I left I asked where are all the old parts(since the only ones I received were the aftermarket springs), and he will check with the technician on Monday. I had at least one fully assembled strut with no problem except being worn and at least 2 front strut springs that I provided.Advice is that only do the repairs you want done even if they recommend more stuff to be done. If you want to save more money go somewhere that can use aftermarket parts, not OEM, as an alternative.I was happy with the result and the rep I dealt with on the visit, so I can't give too bad of a review.
