We have been taking our cars to Myong for more than 25 years in two locations. He is a superior mechanic and very honest. All of his prices are very fair and the cars are always repaired as needed and ready to go. The facility is super clean and very organized. He kept one of Honda Accord's running smoothly for over 300,000 miles! That's a wow. Excellent place to get your car repaired and maintained.

I have been going to Japanese Auto Care for more than a decade to service my two vehicles. Myong Shin always provides a fair assessment of the vehicles and never tries to sell repairs that are not needed.

Excellent repair and maintenance services for Japanese autos. Very honest and knowledgeable management and staff. I wouldn't take my Lexus anywhere else, including the dealer.
