San Carlos Auto Repair

I was referred to A-1 by someone who was thoroughly happy with the place. But I'm more of a skeptic, so I decided to hold off on any judgment. I took my son's truck in for tires and brakes and came out a true believer. The work was done well, quickly, and at a competitive price. The service writer, Rob, was freindly and knowledgeable. Most importantly, there was no attempt to up-sell me or arm-twist any uneeded work. THAT was refreshing.

Brought my 2004 Nissan 350Z for a regular check-up at 40K mi. A+ found that the rear right wheel of the car was about to fall off due to worn control arm assembly. Although it took several days to get all the parts for the repair and the repair itself was pretty costly, A+ did an excellent job in diagnosing the problem and fixing it. The car handles now so well that I realized the issue had been there for a long time. I service my car regularly, but nobody else has found this safety issue before! Thanks A+ for saving me from loosing a wheel at freeway speed!

My car had a laundry-list of things to fix and Rob made a careful assessment of what was needed as opposed to "nice-to-have done," which I appreciated very much.

The car is getting on in mileage and years, so I want to do the maintenance to ensure safety (in operation) but not pour needless dollars into it.Many thanks to Rob and crew for getting my car back to safe running condition. I also thank Rob for making the rental car experience easy (coming and going).Thank you very much!

A+ Japanese is just that, simply put- the best overall Japanese auto repair shop in the greater bay area. You won't beat their friendliness, courtesy shuttle, rental car and competence as repair technicians.

Great job on a major maintenance overhaul of my vehicle.

I most liked the fact that A+ provided me with minimum stress. They knew what was going on and even offered to give me a ride to and from work.

car purrs like a kitten!

Nice to have a bumper to bumper check of the car... a variety of issues found and resolved. I feel the car is now ready to start on the next 100K miles.

They held to price estimate and returned car at the time they said it would be ready - well done A+! They also were able to mill the fly wheel instead of putting in a new one thus saving us a load of money. We were looking for a good local garage for our Subaru and now we have found it.
