Work done on my 2003 Tacoma
Im a repeat customer. My son has a 2001 4 Runner that has been to David’s shop for AC work and an issue with the rear axle bearings. 4 Runner works great! This work was done about 2 years ago.
My 2003 Tacoma just hit 300,000 miles in October of 2020 and due for the water pump and timing belt replacement. I usually go to a Toyota dealer for this work but just found out about David’s shop a few years ago and decided to let him do the work this time along with replacing the front wheel bearings and a few other issues I had with the truck. David and his crew are very thorough and being mechanically inclined myself I know David isn’t just making up work that needs done. If he recommends it then it’s needed. I plan on keeping this Tacoma so I want it reliable with no issues as it’s been since I bought it in 2006.
Check out David’s shop , Japanese auto specialist, work is done right the first time! Highly recommended!

Excellent service, as usual. 2013 Pilot.
We received a detailed report for recommended services. We had them replace the timing belt, transmission fluid and an oil change. We are very happy with how Japanese Specialists were able to fit us into their busy schedule.

Honest Mechanic
I was referred to Japanese Auto Specialists by a couple of friends of mine. It was amazing that both of them said the same thing about this service, not knowing the other had been costumers. They used the description of 'honest mechanic ' and they weren't wrong. I took their suggestion, and have been so pleased with the service I have received. I am a single mom, with very little experience dealing with car troubles, so this place truly is a life saver. I trust Dave and his staff, and you should too.

Honest work done by David
I have been taking my cars over the years to David. He is a Japanese car specialist and is very honest with his work. I just took my car last week to make sure my car was ready to go for a long drive. I went from point A to point B with no problems.
i wouldn't take my car to any other mechanic. He is trustworthy. Thank you David!
