Recently, when I take my car to an authorized dealer

for regular maintenance,

I feel like I am being ripped off by the dealer.

Well, it is a big problem in Japan now, but

I still feel some resistance when I am told by Americans.

I also feel uncomfortable taking them to Latino and Korean factories in the suburbs of LA.

I know there are several Japanese repair shops around Torrance, but

do you have any recommendations?

There are a lot of information in magazines, etc. and I am quite worried.

If there are any reliable repair shops near LA, please exchange information.

Highly recommended. I also had about 10 items covered for repair at an authorized dealer, but when I took it to Toshi's, the only thing they did was replace the wipers.
I am an uncle who likes to talk.

The H factory was popular, but there were car rentals for the major players, and they had a lot of tricks up their sleeves, such as working with shady car rental agencies and letting them repair cars for only an hourly labor rate, which smelled fishy. It's probably Hispanics who do the repairs anyway. Japanese are expensive.

I feel a certain amount of resistance to being told by Americans. Then
who would convince me?

You would probably find your favorite repair shop on your own rather than referring them to a repair shop.
If you make a referral and the repair shop complains, you will be less likely to go there.

The worst thing about repair shops is that they don't know anything about cars, so when they push you to get your car repaired, they say "this one's bad, this one's too bad"
I would look elsewhere, but I personally don't like repair shops because they are like dentists.
