San Carlos Auto Repair

Nothing but the best service from A+!

I'm a cute, petite girl who looks like a teenager and knows nothing about cars. When it comes to being taken advantage of by mechanics, I'm a sitting duck.My Honda Civic was due for it's 65k checkup, and my dad was concerned about my automotive naivete being taken advantage of. He did some Googling and called A+ Japanese Auto Repair, and had a long talk with the owner, Rob. I brought in the car, and Rob gave it a thorough checkup and test drive, including checking the oil and fluids. Then he sat me down and told me everything I needed to know in an honest and non-condescending way. He said that my car was in great condition and didn't need any work at the moment. And he did all this FOR FREE.I've been a loyal customer ever since. The service is cheerful and punctual and Rob has never tried to upsell me anything.

I would like to thank everyone at A+ for

These guys transformed my car! My 2001 Beetle had been struggling with the San Carlos Hills, noise, hick-ups and all. They found the transmission fluid was never changed, neither was the timing belt, seals were seeping and other fatigued stuff. They replaced all along with minor service. I drove off the lot with the car humming and giving the smoothest performance ever! Incredible but true!

Everything works great now. Thank you for the good service

These guys are the best and have all the service for my 3 vehicles (TL, RDX, and Accord) for life. After having very negative experiences with Hopkins Acura, I went to an independent shop in Burlingame that was very good overall (Nicks). But A+ is closer and is a full service shop that works with you to go a great job at a great value. After getting my TL-S brakes done here last year, I was sold. They found pads that were a significant saving over Acura pads, and gave me a very good labor quote (way better than Hopkins, and a little better than Nicks). When they ran into a snag getting the lower priced pads, they got them from Acura but stuck to their quote, eating the difference (about $120 as I recall). I didn't even have to ask, that's just how they do business. Not only that, they are very friendly, knowledgeable, give you their attention no matter how busy they are, and follow up to make sure you are happy. Unbelievable service and overall customer experience! I am so lucky they are close by, but I would travel far if necessary to use them. Definitely as good as it gets in auto repair, and I know what I am talking about!
