Auto inspection service near Escondido, CA

Absolutely TERRIBLE. I started calling at 8:00 to inquire about bringing my truck in for a smog check. I called continuously and the phone was finally answered at 8:08. I was told that they don’t take appointments, so I took my truck in by 8:25, at which time I was told that there was a 1 hour wait time and that he would call me when it was done. I left the truck and went home rather than wait there. After 1 hour and 40 minutes with no phone call, I called for a status. He said that they were having trouble with the machine and that they were taking the truck in right now. He should have called to let me know this after 1 hour (Website claims #1 Great Customer Service and #2 Reliability are both FALSE). He finished the call with telling me that it would be finished in 45 minutes. I waited for 45 minutes, then went in to pick up the truck. After standing in the shop for nearly 10 minutes with mechanics walking past me and no one offering to help me (Website claim #1 Great Customer Service is again FALSE), I saw my truck parked behind the shop, so I went to take a look to see if it looked like anything had been done. I found the truck with the door open and the key in the ignition with the ignition beeping. The truck was just a couple of feet from the sidewalk and street. ANYONE walking by on the sidewalk definitely would have heard the beeping, and known that the key was in the ignition. If they had decided to steal the truck it would have been gone in 2 seconds with absolutely NO chance of the theft being stopped. This is INCREDIBLY IRRESPONSIBLE and leaved the El Cajon Smog owner liable to buying me a brand new truck. I took the key out and closed the door and went back around to the front of the shop. After standing there for several more minutes, someone finally offered to help me. I was told that the truck STILL had not been taken in. The guy added that they were going to take it in right now, even though all of the bays were full. Yet ANOTHER lie? (Website

Eric and his team were great. They didn't have my tire in stock and my dealership didn't have time to change my tire this weekend, so i purchased the tire from the dealership and these guys took care of me free of charge. Not only that, they informed me that the dealership sold me a used tired when i bought a new one. I appreciate these guys for being upfront and giving me advice on the situation. Will be returning for all repairs in the future.

Very nice people very happy with the service. Told me it might be two hours but they got me in and out in 20 minutes neil l. San Diego, CA

I love Range Rovers and to find such a great team that might love them more then me, wow! They took care of my car and set me up with some sweet after market part.Very happy with there work. Also they threw in a free oil change for fist timers. They told me to tell a friend so here I am. thanks

They are very conveniently located and have the best customer service! Having lowest prices in the area doesn't hurt either! Thank you guys for doing great job on my car! Tim Skiy

Been coming to Tony for 5+ years. He treats you like family, and prices are very competitive. Cox is the type of place you can be openly clueless about cars and not get ripped off. They gave me a free loaner car any time I asked.

Great customer service - I originally bought 4 Winnrun tires in Murrieta and "tested" them on my commute to work - 60 miles. Horrible tire for an Audi A4. Manager at store of purchase said they were similar to my Toyo's. Ummm, no...So I went into the Kearny Mesa location and was greeted by Daniel and Joey I told them my issue and was promptly issued a credit for the tires and exchanged them for a set of Toyo. I definitely go back to this location -Steve Obedoza

I love FTS because I can trust them. That's a big thing for me when going to see a mechanic, especially for the first time. They have the most incredible reviews and I got a glowing referral for their services. They lived up to ALL the hype. I went in for an oil change and I got a no-nonsense assessment of what needed to be done and when. They didn't try to oversell me or get me to fix things that weren't in need of repair. I really appreciate that! They also worked quickly and got me in with little notice and completed my service before the estimated time. I will definitely be back to FTS, in fact, I have my other car scheduled for this week. :)

I've taken my Audi TT roadster to Griffin's several times. They have take great care of the care of it. They know the ins and outs of repairing Audis, so I'm not waiting for days while they scout around for parts and figure out how to get the repair done. They're also honest and dependable, and the shop is clean as a whistle. I recommend them highly! Allie Laurie
