"Excellent customer service and quality of work; had a check engine light come on driving home from work and asked if I needed to have car towed in, advised if driving normally to go ahead and drive in. Because I had to bring my car in later in the day, was told they might have to keep overnight, but would let me know by the end of the day what was wrong. At their word, they told me what the problem was, was able to fix it and suggested if the engine light came back on that it was possibly another issue, but for right now it was fine and that I could pick it up now. I like how they followed through on what they promised ie advised of problem by the end of the day, and the fact that they tell me what needs to be done, and not try to upsell me into getting other things done that is not needed."

Claudia from San Diego, CA on 7/9/2019 for an auto service of their Honda and their testimonial is:

"Dear Kim, It was a pleasure to talk to you while we were waiting for the AC Recharge on my 2012 Ford Transit. Finally, after many years, we found an honest and competente mechanic shop around my house in the Mira Mesa, Scripps area. You quote us online for the job and reminded us that there was a $25 July special for that job. We made the appointment on line and when we arrived, Kim reminded us that the price included to empty the AC system, replenish it with AC fluid and check for leaks with a dye. All that for the fair price of $140 dollars. Kim told us that they were going to do also an inspection and service to basic parts on my van and they did, giving us a tentative service schedule for my van. I mentioned to Kim that my husband and my son, have electric Fiats and they might need basic repairs in the future, Kim told me that they have a specialist on their staff that can fix electric cars. Now that I found Miramar Automotive & Transmission a honest group of mechanics, I’ll bring our cars for any repair. Thanks to Kim and to her great mechanics. Claudia"

Pamela from San Diego, CA on 3/17/2019 for an auto service of their Cadillac and their testimonial is:

"As seen on Yelp: I first met Kim as my dealership BMW service advisor. The instant we interacted her knowledge and honesty above all else was clearly evident. She made me feel comfortable and her sense of humor made me laugh... and I trusted her implicitly. The day I found out she was no longer there and that I'd have to work with someone else quite frankly made me beyond nervous and skeptical that I would receive the same high level of care. Sure enough the poor customer service experience 'drove' me to never return. Fast forward 1 1/2 years and I'm ecstatic that Kim has her own shop now. Folks I would give her and her team 10+ stars if I could. If you're looking for straightforward honesty and someone who truly cares about your experience, put your trust here. There's no smoke and mirrors. Their testing equipment sends you pictures of results and your quote exactly matches only issues needing to be addressed. They will also let you know things you need to consider 'down the road' so you can start planning. Fun fact: her and her husband race bimmers. Kim - thank you for being 'you'. I don't think you realize how much I have truly always appreciated you. Wishing you many years of success with only the best customers who recognize your expertise and no-nonsense honesty. ~Pamela"

I’ve been taking my cars here for years. They have done both routine and major repairs on my cars (Timing chain, clutch... replacement, oil leaks, brakes to name a few.) They have been very thorough on their assessment, updates on repairs and recommendations on services. They have always been honest about what has to be done and what items can wait. Prices have been much better compared to dealerships too. After major repairs they also followed up to see how the car was performing. It’s hard to find an auto mechanic shop you can trust, but this one you can.read more

I needed a Transmission repair, and had already been ripped off by another shop. After reading reviews, I chose... Miramar Automotive and Transmission. Miramar Automotive was honest about what they could do, up front about the price, and most importantly they delivered on their promises. They did quality repair work which was on time and worked even better than promised. They listened to my concerns and offered me options based on my planned use of the truck, and kept me informed as they did the work. I had several maintenance items done at the same time, and every job they did was done with quality, care and cleanliness. This was a large and expensive job and I am very happy with the results. I recommend this business.read more

I took my car in last week for some general transmission and coolant service. Kim (the owner) was friendly and kept me... updated on my vehicle’s progress. They sent me a breakdown of everything they did and gave me a realistic breakdown of the current and future service needed.Two days later my car was overheating, which had never happened before. It was after hours, so I called and left a message. Kim reached out first thing the next day and asked me to bring it over ASAP. Her only concern was making sure they figured out the problem and making sure it was right.It turns out the issue was a broken seal on a radiator plug. They fixed it and I had my car back later that day. Kim then called the next day to check in and make sure the car was running great. All this while her shop was down a mechanic.To say I’ll be back is an understatement. Kim and her team are professional, honest, and want to make sure they provide quality work.read more

Brought my car in for a tune up, oil change and because my car would shake while idling and feel like it was on the... verge of stalling out. After the tune up and replacing my engine / transmission mounts my car now runs smoother than the day I first bought it. Really amazing and knowledgeable team. John was very helpful throughout the repairs and called me to let me know how things were progressing. I wouldn't take my car anywhere else.read more

We've been a long time customer of this shop. The work is high quality and the prices are competitive. Most... importantly, they take the time to listen when you describe the problem, find it, and fix it. This is the only shop we've used for the past 8 years (for 5 different cars). I cannot recommend them highly enough. Trustworthy, thorough, honest, a great value.read more

Miramar Auto & Transmission continues to do great work for my LX 350. I went in for a fuel injection service, air... filter, and oil change.John, as usual, was friendly and professional and said it would be done in a couple of hours and he was true to his word.I also took advantage of the military discount which is a bonus.The professionalism of these folks will keep me returning for all of my vehicle's needs.read more

John and Erik did phenomenal work on my 1995 4runner. They kept running into problem after problem but they kept at it,... updated me every time there was a new issue found and allowed me to make the decision if I wanted them to fix it or not. I preformed an off road test, and my 4runner works like it never used to before. I am so pleased with their quality of work and the timeliness. Thank you so much!read more

I had a feeling to go to this place instead of an auto repair shop chain, and I am very glad I did. They did a full... inspection and gave me great details about what needs to be done.They are super friendly and give off very awesome vibes!If you want honest people, quality repairs, and excellent customer service, I HIGHLY recommend this place!read more

I went to this shop on the recommendation of Andy’s Muffler Service (which I also highly recommend). I have an older... Jeep Cherokee that needed an oil change and the suspension re-torqued after some previous work done out of state. John was honest and straightforward. The work done was top notch and the prices were fair. I’ll be using this shop for any future automotive work!read more

WOW!! Kim and John at Miramar Automotive & Transmission are just AWESOME!! I was interested in a used car that was for... sale at a dealership nearby. Since I am 1700 miles away I would be purchasing the car "as-is sight unseen". I called Miramar and spoke to Kim, she recommended a pre-purchase inspection and said she doesn't care which shop I choose, just make sure I have it done. Her knowledge and willingness to explain the details is why I chose Miramar to inspect the vehicle. I am comfortable purchasing the vehicle due to the extensive inspection report, estimate to correct the issues they found and photos they provided. I would recommend them to anyone and everyone who needs automotive repairs or maintenance.read more

As a woman with little knowledge on auto repair, I am always worried that I will be taken advantage of. Finding this... business was a gift. I have entrusted my car to Kim and her team for several years now. With an older car, I have had several major repairs and they have not disappointed me in their service and the quality of their work. Kim is very knowledgeable and always takes the time to explain the repairs. She is very responsive and easy to talk to. I completely trust their work. I would highly recommend this shop to anyone.read more

Kim is an experienced automotive advisor who gives accurate time and cost estimates and explains the work that will be... performed. This manages expectations on both sides so there are no surprises. After repair she summarizes how well (or difficult) the automotive work went so you can understand the final billing. I love this shop as an honest and well run one that I have brought all 5 of my families cars to for many years. I highly recommend this business and strongly suggest you bring your ride in for Kim to take care of!read more

We were preparing to purchase a used truck, Miramar Automotive & Transmission did a complete inspection for us. They... found a few small items (which were to be expected on a used vehicle) but they also found an oil leak that will be a costly repair. We returned to the seller with the inspection report, and he was willing to reduce the price of the truck. We were very pleased with the friendly, prompt and professional service we received from Miramar Automotive & Transmission!read more

My first mechanic was not able to replace my transmission. It was worth it to tow all the way to Mira Mesa to get my... transmission replaced. They did a super thorough check before hand that I was able to see online, it included real photos of my car. For example: my filters needed replacing and they sent pictures of that. The check found major things that my last mechanic did not find. And now that my transmission was replaced it works so much better! The owner is also super nice, respectful, and responsive which honestly does not happen often to me.read more

If you're looking for a trustworthy place to take your car for maintenance or repairs, look no further. Kim went above... and beyond to help me when I brought I my car in with multiple repairs and maintenance needs. Here are just a few of the things that really set Miramar Automotive & Transmission apart from other shops I've taken my car into:1) Kim and her team gave me regular updates on the status of my car.They provided me with a report with pictures of each aspect of my car. This included items like the color, pH, and fill-level of my coolant, the condition of my air filter, and the condition of my tires, etc.2) They were thorough with their workDuring their inspection they noticed some liquid had splattered inside of my engine bay. It turned out this was the symptom of an issue with my motor mount. They included those pictures in my report and helped me find an issue with my car that I didn't know I had!I've taken my car to OTHER shops in the past where they claimed a "100-point inspection" that included checking my reverse lights. All those other shops claimed that they had checked them and they were fine. Well they were broken (I had known it for a while), so I know that they didn't actually check. Kim's team was the only one that ever caught my lights being out.3) Kim helped me avoid doing repairs/maintenance that my car didn't need to save me money.I had requested some maintenance that they found I didn't need. It ended up saving me $200!Please keep in mind my car is like my baby to me so when I move to a new area it's very important that I find a shop that I know will take good care of it. Seriously, stop Google searching and just give them a call to schedule your appointment.Thanks again Kim and Zach it was a pleasure doing business with you! I'll absolutely be back in the future.read more

My 2014 Subaru had issues while I was on I-15. The temperature guage was almost on the red. I called them, Greg said... bring it in.. He and the mechanic Bob quickly diagnosed it that the bottom tank had crack. I already poured 3L coolant, all was draining. They fixed it, did a pressure test and gave it back like new (2Yr warranty on the work) - 5 Stars for No up-selling, very knowledgeable and reasonable folks.read more
