    Absolutely outstanding service at East County Alignment!…read moreRicardo and Jennifer went above and beyond to take care of us! After a frustrating experience with Discount Tire, they were able to fix what Discount Tire had broken and get everything back in order. Their customer service was exceptional--friendly, knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely committed to making things right. It's refreshing to find a business that takes pride in its work and truly cares about its customers. I can't thank Ricardo and Jennifer enough for turning a frustrating situation into such a positive experience. East County Alignment has definitely earned our trust and future business. Highly recommend!

I took my chances. And I was definitely impressed. Excellent work excellent customer service they're very clean at what they do. They showed me everything they did to my truck.

I'm definitely a returning customer Jesus's the owner was extremely polite and courteous, and he went up and beyond the call of duty in performance and in helping me get my truck in and out in a normal time span. I did not have to wait too long and by the way, the waiting room, flatscreen TV comfortable chairs and the coffee was excellent.

Joshua is a great asset to this local Firestone store in Santee! Very friendly and knowledgeable guy who always goes the extra mile to help customers! I wish him all the best and hope he gets to stay at this Santee store (92071) for years to come!

    The Good: Points for being fast. I replaced four tires and got wheel alignment for a little over…read moretwo hours. Some understanding during our communication when I pointed out a price discrepancy. The Bad: Nickel and diming. I've been going to Firestones since 1999 and every location I've gone to just applies all the active, applicable coupons. No games. It's why I've kept coming back even though the prices have steadily gone up (it's gone up to $270!). This location did not do that. I bought 4 destination tires, which has a coupon for a $70 discount. Because I spent over $600, another $100 was deducted. Because I bought the wheel alignment, there was a coupon for a $40 discount. Total discount: $210. Josh initially applied only a $40 discount to the tires. When I showed him the $70 coupon, he was about to say something but ended up just applying the the $70 coupon. He then indicated that he applied the extra $30 off. When I picked up the car, I was told I would get an email with the invoice and Josh indicated again that the extra $30 was applied. The following day I called for the invoice and saw the invoice only reflected $180 off. I called Firestone and spoke to someone who put me on hold for about 10 minutes then transferred me to Josh. When I pointed out the discrepancy, he stated that he applied the extra $30 discount by removing a TPMS Valve Kit charge, which was $30. There was no reference to this TPMS Valve Kit Charge on the invoice. I told him that this was not reflected anywhere on the invoice and asked how a customer would know that there was an accurate deduction when there was no reference to this charge that was removed and instead said a $180 discount was applied. When I asked why he applied the $40 coupon instead of the accurate $70 coupon, he did not have an answer and just said he would send a different invoice to show what he did. Josh then emailed a separate invoice that looked like it was made on the spot that applied two "PRT-DISC Customer Expectation Discount (Promise not met)" discounts totaling $140 and the TPMS Valve Kit Charge for $28 ($7 for each tire), which was not discounted and therefore made the invoice $30 higher. I thanked him for the explanation but noted it caused me to waste my time because he never explained what he was doing in the shop or on an invoice and I, instead, had to call because it looked like I had been cheated $30. He replied that he hoped he would get the benefit of the doubt that he was being honest and I responded that this isn't a reflection of my thoughts on his character but no one gets the benefit of the doubt. We're strangers making a transaction, this is why invoices exist. He then said he had to do it this way because could not apply the correct $70 coupon because he had already entered the $40 coupon in the system and that he went above and beyond for me. I explained he didn't do anything more than he was supposed to do: apply the applicable discounts and accurately process the transaction. If we're being 100% accurate, he didn't do these things or even explain what happened until I called, which is why I wasn't happy with the experience.

He said he would, but he did not. His version of an under the car inspection was sticking his cell phone under the edges of the car and taking a photo. He certainly didn't crawl under and take a look. He made more of an effort to connect with the seller, than me, the buyer and person who hired him. He completed the inspection in 20 minutes and it certainly wasn't worth $200. It was anything but thorough. He said he was mostly inspecting cosmetics and basic function, which I said I could do. I asked him to share with me what he was inspecting as he went along, and he declined to do that. Honestly, he seemed to be in a hurry. Lastly, although I was told I would be getting all the photos the inspector took, absolutely none none of them are in the report. I do not recommend him and would never use him again!

I placed an order on their website for a pre-purchase inspection and they were able to come out to meet the seller of the vehicle the next day. After the inspection, the inspector gave me a call with his findings and overall impression of the vehicle . The day after the inspection, a written report and a numerous inspection photos were available on the order page of their website. The written report specifically covered the following areas: Road Test, Engine & Mechanical, Suspension & Undercarriage, Tires & Brakes, Exterior & Body Condition. The level of detail in the report and the number of photos provided was satisfactory. Overall, it was a good overall experience and I'm happy with the service provided and with the vehicle I purchased. Why did I not give a full five stars? First, I believe a whining transmission noise they noted in their report was misdiagnosed. It seems to have been caused by the car's AC compressor that progressively whined louder before eventually failing during the fifth drive after purchase. Second, the report indicated that the transmission was leak free but I've found the slightest pooling of transmission fluid in my garage since the first day I purchased the car. Lastly, minor details seemed to be missed like missing roof weather strips/mouldings, a detached fog lamp, and sanding/repair work done on the rear bumper and rear fenders. If they had the means to diagnose the whining noise further and offered that as an add-on package, I probably would have availed and subsequently provided a higher rating.

I had been using them for years until I could no longer drive so I sent my…read moreson to them with his car troubles and they have been nothing but professional, kind and honest with him. I always appreciated how they treated me when I came in - very professional and never condescending. On another note, when my son's car finally gave up the ghost, they allowed him to keep it there for a short time. I had to go in the other day to meet with the Cash for Cars guy and I am so grateful to this sweet, young lady named Kayla at John's who deserves a big shout out. First of all, it was hot, and she welcomed us in to this wonderfully air conditioned room, offering sodas, water or coffee as though we actual customers. Then she offered to help get stuff out of the car, brought the dealer in to us and continued to be helpful and kind. A really nice man, Brian came out of his office and offered a form for those who don't have the actual Pink Slip, which I discovered we didn't. At one point, the dealer came in shaking his head saying "no deal" because he couldn't see the VIN # on the windshield alluding that it had been scraped off and didn't match thr door VIN. He then promptly left. Kayla, having heard that he couldn't see the VIN, promptly ran back out to the car and discovered it was covered up by a Soapy Joe's sticker. She then ran back out to where his truck was parked to let him know. In the end, we still didn't get it sold bc we couldn't find the actual Pink Slip (which I told him about when he first got there), and he apparently didn't want to bother with the form. I felt like a spectacle in their office but everyone was so friendly and positive and helpful toward us that it made me feel ok. I shouldn't have been surprised because they have always been this way. This is how the world should be! This is how we should treat one another. I felt so grateful and I will be taking in a plate of something special for them as a result. On a.side and final note of observation, I overheard one of the other girls answer the phone and was so impressed with her professionalism and kindness to the caller. I bring it up because it means a lot to know you are being spoken to with dignity and kindness. Anywho, thank you John's and thank you Kayla for making my day just a little more special!!

    Surprise $$$$ John's Automotive Up-charged me once I arrived. I walked out. Shame on these guys…read more They'll take you over the coals with Upcharges and work you don't need unless you do what I did, and that is to walk out and bring my business to an honest shop. I had no idea this was the same people as I had got a [crazy, inaccurate] quote from in 2018. I was quoted over the phone that a complete diagnosis would be $109. They had the make and model, knew it was a truck so should be no surprises when I walk in. RIGHT? wrong. "We like to get paid for our time"; dude at the counter. Then don't misquote customers in the first place. His excuse was, "well, we have to check the back of the truck too". Lame. Posted: are the two quotes for a diagnosis, one from John's and the next from a shop that I won't share here, where my truck is currently being serviced. Further, let's go back a bit in history. In April of 2018 I visited John's location on Riverdale in Grantville. My truck had registered a check engine, which turned up regarding emissions. What did "Johns" say and quote me? " Well, Toyota Tundras have four catalytic converters so you are looking at $3,270. out the door, you need to replace these, then you'll pass smog, clear emissions ". Problem: they got it way wrong: the 2000 Toyota Tundras have TWO catalytic converters mister grifters. After that B.S. I left. [2007s - present have four converters, so ketchup Bubs!] Next, I left and went to "Cardiego" on Adams Avenue. The owner checked the emissions signal and said, " all you need is your drive cycle reset. One hour later and $90. dollars later the work was done, truck passed smog and no more emissions issue. It was my mistake that I had no idea that this same outfit had a second garage in La Mesa, had no idea I was walking into the same line of talk and walk. I expect that the owner Mr. Joan will comment here something like this, " I am sorry you seemed to have this experience, because we don't have a record of you in our system " hmmmm... My response [following my laughter] is this: on 4/27 your computer generated the quote that I have posted here. It generated the information you had on my vehicle back in 2018 because you have my old plate number of 6E71244. So Jon, don't try to tell me you never had me in the "system" because if you had not noticed, I now have personalized plates, I haven't had the 6E7... plates for a while now. To be clear: my Tundra is the best year that was produced, it has been cared for only with master techs, and runs perfectly. Word to the wise: My recommendation is to go elsewhere to take care of your auto. **My truck needed the lower front ball joint replacement in the front only. The shop I went to even took out the $57. diag charge since I had the work done with them. It is silent and smooth as usual. There was no noise in the back and a quote on a diagnosis means you quoted me on a diagnosis of the entire vehicle. Bogus, no: I never "authorized" more diagnosis work. Just a foolish response below.
