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.

Mr. Bottom-feeder

Thank you. Yes, it is a subcontracting company. Living in the U.S. makes me speak strange Japanese.

I used to be a mechanic in the South Bay
I know some of the ins and outs of other vendors
All stores are told to replace parts that don't need to be changed to make a sale because of customer concerns.
Also, the labor rate changes a little depending on the city
The market rate is $ 100-120/hour
I have not heard good things about Japanese children's auto
I do not know personally, but I have heard many strange things from customers. The only way to find a decent place is to book for a week or two, because if you can get a reservation right away, you'll wonder why you're not busy ?.
