Auto inspection service near Escondido, CA

Ryan is an amazing mechanic! Very knowledgable, personable, and honest. I recently moved from LA and have used the same mechanic for 15yrs on my Acura's, so I was hesitant to find a new one in SD. I was so pleased to find Ryan, b/c his approach was very similar to Jay my previous mechanic. He was able to fix my brakes, change the oil, replace the door locking mechanism, and have Hertz pick me up and get me a rental car: all for a reasonable price.

I needed a smog, so I went to see Andy at Andy's Auto Repair. I was there Saturday morning at 8am when they opened. Showed them the paperwork for the registration, they quickly looked over the car and I already knew it needed a tune up because it ran pretty bad. Andy jumped on the phone to get me a new cap and rotor, plug wires, plugs and some other small things. Up in the air it went for the oil change, 15 minutes went by, oil change done and up pulled a little hybrid delivery car with all the parts for the tune up, to my surprise they were OEM, can't beat that. The 2 mechanic team jumped on the tuneup, 30 minutes and Andy was on a test drive. Before I even knew it I heard a humming noise and I looked out the sliding glass door to see my car on the smog dyno machine. Honestly I was not there for more than 75 minutes and was out the door with my passed smog for under $250.00 I told Andy simply amazing turnaround, quality and work and most important I still have money for food!!! Andy told me that they were rarely have repairs that are not completed the day the car comes in. You can't go wrong with Andy and his team! A++++++++++++++++

Great Service, Great Price. Quality is legitimate, staff is knowledgable, Service has INCLUDED extended warranty, on service and parts performed by JCM. Multiple Lifts in Garage, Fully equipped with toolsets as well as various specialty tools. EXPECTED repair cost by me: $500+ ACTUAL repair cost by JCM $50. Owner Jeff is very knowledgable of mechanics, as well as his staff of mechanics that know a great amount about the work they do. The VERY BEST PRICE. JCM uses quality Japanese parts, and at virtually cost prices. There are some reviews that post negative remarks however, I did not experience those types of behavior during my visits here. Upfront and legitimate describe this business. -Norman

I've been going to these guys for years and years, for all my cars. Today I came in to get a slow leak repaired - they did it for free, even though the car I brought in was on its original tires (in other words, I hadn't bought tires for that car at Tire Depot). I also trust these guys to mount tires on rare rims on my vintage vehicle. I think the longest wait I've ever had in all my years going here was about an hour-and-a-half. To top it all off, their prices are extremely reasonable. Highly recommended. Greg McKim

Gary and Sharon have done it again! I have been going to their original shop Aero Auto for almost two decades because of their extraordinary service. They recently bought this shop, which is a little closer to my house, so I took my car in here last time. They have done a lot of work to fix it up so it looks nice inside and out. It's so nice to have an auto repair shop that is clean and professional. Sadly, it is still somewhat difficult to find shops that treat women with respect. But that is definitely not the case here! They have created a friendly, comfortable environment for anyone needing their car repaired. And with the free coffee and WiFi, maybe I'll just hang out next time I need my car fixed!

This is the most honest car place I have delt with in San Diego. Very friendly, very upfront, and great service. Good people to do business with

The guy who smogged my car was real nice and professional. It was also the cheapest price around the area!

THE REPAIR THEY PERFORMED DID NOT LAST A MONTH! THEY TOLD ME TO "BE CAREFUL" WHEN I PICKED MY DURANGO UP (AND PAID CLOSE TO $900) I ASSUME THAT TO "BE CAREFUL" MEANT IF I WASNT CAREFUL, THE REPAIR WOULD HAVE TO BE DONE AGAIN IN THE FUTURE. THEY DID NOT TELL ME THAT THE CAR WAS A DEATH TRAP. THEIR REPAIR BROKE WHILE I WAS ON THE 52 WEST, COMING HOME FROM WORK. I WAS GOING 55 MPH ON A STRAIGHT PATH IN DRY WEATHER WHEN MY RIGHT FRONT END SUDDENLY DROPPED, CAUSING ME TO ROLL 2 1/2 TIMES ACROSS ALL LANES OF TRAFFIC, ONLY STOPPING WHEN I HIT THE EMBANKMENT. I WAS TRAPPED IN MY DURANGO, UPSIDE DOWN, SEAT BELT STUCK AND AIR BAG DEPLOYED. NEEDLESS TO SAY, MY CAR WAS TOTALLED. THANKFULLY, THIS ROLLOVER ACCIDENT DIDN'T RESULT IN MULTIPLE DEATHS. I HAVE INJURIES I AM STILL BEING TREATED FOR 10 MONTHS LATER AND I LOST MY VEHICLE. I DIDN'T HAVE FULL COVERAGE INSURANCE BECAUSE IT WAS AN OLDER VEHICLE. CLAIREMONT AUTO CARE REFUSED TO REFUND THE MONEY I SPENT FOR THE REPAIR --ALMOST $900. LIKEWISE, THEY WOULDN'T REIMBURSE ME FOR THE LOSS OF MY VEHICLE WHICH I HAD ONLY PURCHASED 9 MONTHS EARLIER FOR 2K. THEY DID OFFER TO GIVE ME A DISCOUNT TO REIMBURSE ME FOR THE REPAIR BILL, IF I PURCHASED A CAR FROM THEM. I WOULD NEVER KNOWINGLY DRIVE ANY CAR THEY HAVE WORKED ON AGAIN. GUESS WE WILL BE GOING TO COURT. BY THE WAY.... THE ACCIDENT WAS SO TERRIFYING, I DIDN'T DRIVE AGAIN FOR SIX MONTHS. I DONT KNOW IF I WILL EVER DRIVE COMFORTABLY AGAIN.

Clinton, will you marry me? LOL I don't think your wife would mind! Cant believe the time and extra effort you have put into my car since you have worked at Aero Auto Repair. It's as if you are psychic and think of the same things that I do that might help my car without me asking! You guys rock! Erika and Dave, you truly do treat your customers as friends or family. Better, in some instances! Always look forward to seeing you all, despite what the car might need! But, hey, it's a 94 and still happily on the road! Thanks again! Marcia N. San Diego, CA

Have been using them for several years fair and good service
