Where do you get car maintenance and repair work done? (Zama/Ebina/Atsugi area)

I tried Googling this to some extent but couldn’t really get a solid answer. I have a 2012 Honda Fit, looking to get a wheel alignment at the moment but I wanted to identify I placed I could take it to for future car repairs. I’m assuming the local Honda dealer could do it but it would be more pricier than I want it to be. My initial inclination was looking at Autobacs but the list of services that they offer at the local ones appear to be rather limited; their website advertises more but I presume that’s dependent on location.

Is there an equivalent to Firestone/Goodyear here in Japan? Or do you know of any local carshops in this area (Ebina/Atsugi/Zama). Note: Since I’m US military affiliated, I know I can try the on-base option but I wanted to know what my off-base options were. I’ll ask around my place of work as well but I wanted some help from here if that was available.

  1. You have several Super Autobacs that should cover anything that is not too complicated.

  2. JMS and Yellow hat are shops I have near my place, as well as the Autobacs you mentioned. Yellow hat is actually big in Japan.

    I have done my previous shaken in “Kovac” (or Kobac, can’t remember), but no idea how big and spread throughout Japan they are.

  3. Autobacs.
    Wellchams, always had good experience with them.
    Zama autoport I feel is better than Atsugi’s.
