My Tundra has over 400,000 miles and runs great. Best service in town, great prices, very dependable technician with years of experience. Veterans and Military members head over. My 2006 Tundra would not be running perfect without the great work by the technicians at Japanese Automotive Repair and Services. IMUA

Talked with Kyle prior to appointment. He was very informative and understanding. We have a 2019 Lexus ES350. We had odd lights coming and going on the dash. I set my appointment and then dropped off as planned. Every aspect was handled wonderfully. Car was back when expected with a very fair price. You dont find this kind of honesty much anymore. If you have a japanese car I would bring it here. Great people. Thank you Kyle

The honesty and integrity of this place is mind blowing. I needed a diagnostic done on my car, but they found everything wrong with it and we’re spot on about all the problems. Sadly, it turned out to be the part I thought it was on my hybrid and that’s the external battery pack that it runs on electric and gas, (not the 12 V battery) which is a very expensive part and labor, even though their estimate was very good. I just don’t have the funds to get it fixed right now, but I would recommend them and have recommended them to family members and friends already. If you get an opportunity to speak with Kyle, he’s just fantastic and will help set your mind at ease and just give you nothing but the truth of the matter. And lastly, I find it so difficult to find garages that just tell you the truth and the whole truth and don’t try to just get every penny, they can out of you so this place is special and unique for that reason alone and their staff was really wonderful to me.
