J&K Automotive

As we get into the rainy time of year it is important to make sure your windshield wipers are working properly, your tires are in good condition and your brakes are operating as designed. Bring your vehicle in for a no cost inspection and we will help keep your vehicle safe for the holidays.

If you are looking for a great detail company give Glass Finish Detailing a call.

Your Toyota and Lexus vehicles are equipped with brake pads that are formulated to be very effective, quite and clean. We use OEM Parts to ensure your vehicle stops like it should. If you hear any brake noise stop by for a no cost brake inspection.

Your Toyota and Lexus vehicles have some small items that will need periodic replacement. Wiper blades, engine air and cabin air filters, pcv valves and serpentine belts are just a few. They all serve a purpose to keep your car running and operating at its very best. Come in and ask for a general checkup, and we’ll make sure you have the items your vehicle needs before they wear out!

Celebrating 4 years of J&K Automotive today. Thank you to everyone that has supported us along the way. We couldn’t have done it without you!!!

They all serve a purpose to keep your car running and operating at its very best. Come in and ask for a general checkup, and we’ll make sure you have the items your vehicle needs before they wear out!

Brake noise can be common on your vehicle, as some brake pads have materials that can cause a slight squeal. But a really loud squeal or a grinding sound are both signs of parts that are doing more damage. Bring your vehicle in for a complementary brake inspection at the first sound of trouble.

Come down on Sunday March 24th for the True Line Wheel Car Show. We will be hanging out smoking ribs and handing them out until they are gone. Always a great turnout and a lot of fun.

Engine coolant has a sweet smell to it. If you smell something sweet coming from your vehicle. It's more cost effective to repair a coolant leak before the vehicle overheats. Bring it in and we can check it out.

Is your car cranking over a little slower than usual? This is a sign that your battery is starting to lose its ability to properly start your vehicle. Don't wait until you are stranded, bring your vehicle in and we will test it for you. We are an authorized interstate dealer.

Do you feel like your parking brake isn't holding your vehicle correctly? There is an adjustment for that. It is important to have it inspected and adjusted periodically. Give us a call and we can adjust it for you.

If you are seeing this light on your car, most likely your tire pressures are low. It is normal for tires to drop in pressure during cold weather. Stop by the shop and we will fill them up for you.

Merry Christmas from our family to yours. Thank you to all of our great customers for all of your support.

We have teamed up with a great detail service Romeo's Auto Spa. We can have your vehicle fully detailed and serviced in the same day. Call me 619-449-4769 to schedule an appointment.

One Year ago today we closed escrow on J&K Automotive. We have had a few ups and downs but we have learned a lot. I wouldn't change my decision. Looking back and realizing how much more time I get to spend with my family makes it all worth it. Thank you to my awesome wife Crystal for being so supportive. Thank you to all the family and friends that have helped us on this adventure. Thank you Kim L. Felder for helping me out and making sure I learned the ins and outs of running a shop. Thank you to all my great customers you treat me like family and that has really helped make this transition great!!!

Check out the deal on synthetic oil and filter changes. Most new vehicles run synthetic only. Don't pay ridiculous prices for your synthetic oil change.

As most of you slept in a warm dry bed last night. Think about the people that didn't. We are collecting tents to donate to the homeless in our city. So if you have a tent sitting in your garage or storage that you haven't used. Why not give it to someone that will use it everyday? Tents can be dropped off at the shop. Or if you would like to donate to the Gofundme account that would be awesome!!! https://www.gofundme.com/2razsj88

Now that we are into our rainy season. It is never too late to bring your vehicle in for a safety inspection. Many vehicles have unforeseen issues with tires, brakes and wipers that could put you in a scary situation real fast. Lets make sure that doesn't happen to you.

Before you buy your next Toyota, Lexus or Scion vehicle. Have it inspected. There are too many dealers and used car lots that attempt to mask major problems in their used vehicles. http://sandiego.craigslist.org/esd/aos/5331631595.html

Joe Davis passed away Sunday night. Joe was a Technician with Toyota from what seemed like the beginning of time. He pioneered the way things were done right. I had the privilege of working with Joe at Mossy Toyota and Toyota of El Cajon Everyone I learned from learned what they knew from Joe. Thank you for leading the way for all of us. R.I.P. Joe!
