As a girl with limited car knowledge and new to the area, I came here solely based on Google reviews. After being here twice for oil changes and servicing on my Ford Bronco, I am so satisfied with how honest, communicative (in easy to understand language), and fair their prices are. Both times Ishii had noticed a "sweet smell" coming from my engine with concerns for a coolant leak and I took it to my dealership (under warranty) and they detected exactly what Ishii had noted (despite other places never mentioning this). They never pushed additional services on me and were upfront with costs. I highly recommend their inspection, they are exceptionally detailed!!

Got Eibach lowering springs installed here, quoted amount and out the door amount was the exact same. Same day pickup too. They did a great job.

They truly care for your car and your safety. They offer a thorough and professional inspection, as well as fairly reasonable pricing for repairs. Would come back again.

Love Ishii Motor for all my auto repairs. Great customer service, very transparent with cost and timing to complete the work. Been going here for a couple years now and plan to keep going.

Everything they do is at a professional level. Their honest, thorough, and detail-oriented. I've used them a great deal, and each time feel that I have placed my car and trust in the most capable of hands.

Very knowledgeable, professional and friendly staff. They go through the whole process of getting the best job possible for my car. Complete report of what possible problems or concerns I have. Also, don’t push for services that you don’t need like the others. I definitely recommend to my family and friends.

Poor communication, sloppy workmanship, and blame-shifting Going to echo another reviewer: don’t bring Ishii anything labor-intensive…or maybe don’t bring them anything at all. My case was a clutch and rear main seal replacement. Labor-intensive? Sure. Complicated? Not really. I dropped the car off in August and was told “next Wednesday” assuming parts arrived on time. I sent tracking showing a Thursday/Friday delivery. Wednesday comes and I’m told that’s just when they’d start trying to fit me in. My car sat over two weeks before it was finished. Soon after pickup, puddles showed up under the car — a brand-new problem. I brought it back, and they confirmed the rear main seal they installed was leaking, supposedly because “the lip was backwards.” Instead of admitting an install error, which they in writing confirmed would be covered, they blamed the genuine Mazda seal for not including an “install kit.” It sounded like there were assumptions made and perhaps some uncertainty around the first time of installation — ’90% of the time, seals don’t require any tools and are just driven/pressed straight in, but this was one of the 10% of times it wasn’t’….something like that. Sketchy. Mazda doesn’t make or require an ‘install kit’ — the service manual just calls for careful installation. Multiple Mazda service departments confirmed this. If Ishii had doubts, a single phone call could’ve cleared it up and I probably wouldn’t be posting this review. They reinstalled with their own aftermarket seal and made me pay. Their service note literally says: “Did not come with installation tool which caused the lip of seal to be installed backwards.” That’s not a parts issue; that’s an installer issue from the sound of it. The sleeve that aftermarket brands include is just insurance against sloppy technique; a proper install is definitely possible without rolling the lip provided some care is taken. They gave me half off labor the second time, but I should never have been paying for their mistake in the first place. Mistakes happen — but shifting blame onto the customer is a terrible look

They were recommended by one of my friends. Very pleased with taking my Acura here. They actually took the time to explain what the car needed because they inspected it vs the dealership just saying it was needed based on time. Reasonable with pricing and time. I will for sure be back.

I got tired of my regular oil change at the Lexus dealer always costing so much & always coming up with add'l expensive services. Ishii was recommended by a friend and I was so happy with the service, the cost, and my interactions with staff. I left with a prioritized list of future services I may/will need and the cost. I appreciate their approach so much and will use them moving forward

Lived up to all the positive reviews. Great team. Expert skills. Outstanding service. I wish our country was run even half as well as Ishii.

I came here for a second opinion on some repairs that were recommended at a dealership. Many of the concerns came back the same but I felt far less pressured and much more informed about the decisions I was making on what I wanted to be fixed. It also appeared to be cheaper which was nice. The staff are extremely helpful and worked with me on what I’d like to get done. Overall a great experience and I will definitely be coming back here for my future car repairs and maintenance!

I brought my car to ishii in a pretty rough state with a lot of mechanical and electrical issues. Ishii was very fair in pricing out their services and transparent throughout the whole process. Everyone was very nice and clearly very knowledgeable. Will be bringing in my car again!

I've taken all my regular and speciality vehicles to Ishii. The front desk is thorough in explaining the work and any adjustments needed. The work is always clean and robust. I've had them do clutch replacements, coolant diagnostics, brake bleeds and radiator replacements. All quality work.

Quality team all around. Had some issues with my WRX, asked them to do a full inspection and they ended up fixing a handful of things for me. They were very communicative and honest. Would recommend to friends and family!

A colleague recommended Ishii Motors about three years ago, and I’ve been coming here ever since with both of my Japanese cars. They noticed issues that other places and even dealers missed, like my steering wheel not being straight. I trust their work, and I really like that the repair recommendations and records are digital. It makes it a lot easier to keep track of the history.

We are very grateful to have such a meticulous JDM mechanic near by. We have taken our 2001 Lexus is300 to ishii motorsports for years now. They have really helped us bring it back to a healthy life. I don’t trust anyone else to work on it but ishii. Ben, Binh, Steve, and everyone are very communicative and explain each step and listen to every concern. We are customers for life.

I am very happy with the work they did on my son's Honda Civic. They gave me a very.detailed list of all the issues they found. I was able to select the issues I wanted fixed. Communication was probably the best I have ever experienced with a repair shop. They were proactive in telling me the status of my car - which was a miracle in of itself. I never had to call or wonder about an update they continually reached out to me. Even just today about 2 weeks after the service they texted me to ask how the car was running. Just wow!
