I come here often to take care of our DMV needs and this location, [[HIGHLIGHT]]the staff are friendly and welcoming. The lady who greets you as you come in is nice and always pleasant.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I had a to take care of a couple of things on 7/24/26 and when I called a day prior to ask what I can expect and the cost, [[HIGHLIGHT]]I spoke to David who was very knowledgeable, told me exactly what to expect and all the forms I needed to fill out when I do come in and also he let me know what I needed to bring to the office.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] And when we finally did come in, we did have to fill out a few paperwork, it got kind of confusing but [[HIGHLIGHT]]Andy who took care of us was very patient and very knowledgeable too on the signatures and info we missed on the paperwork.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I appreciate his help that day to make sure our visit went through smoothly and that it was done right. Thank you so much Andy, for making it so simple and painless. read more

By far the worst AAA branch I've visited. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Super unfriendly atmosphere, and staff that were untrained and unwilling to help.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I went to the Pleasant Hill branch immediately following my visit here, and they got my registration solved in 15 minutes. [[HIGHLIGHT]]SKIP THIS BRANCH IF YOU WANT TO GET ANYTHING DONE.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I gave it two stars because it smelled nice. Everything else was terrible. read more

Walked into this establishment and didn't know AAA does DMV services as long as you're a AAA member. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Thanks to Heidi and Zach for giving us great customer service.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Definitely saves us a lot of time. We appreciate it very much! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Marina is the absolute best.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]She always helps figure out the best choice for our family and is so sweet it makes us want to come in all the time![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Thank you Marina! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Front receptionist SO rude- next time I'll go to a different location to not have to deal with her.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Never have been treated so rude at a AAA office before[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

I don't know what happened to AAA but I was a loyal customer for over 30 years. I had issues with them in the past which I looked over because I didn't want to have to look for another insurance company. This time was the last straw. I had my account payment set up automatically. I was checking our joint account and they didn't take out our payment last month. Yup no insurance. If we got in an accident it would have been awful and our fault! No apology or explanation. Well today I did have to spend a bit of time but found another insurance for both our cars and our home. Same for our home, better for our cars and roadside assistance with a savings of 600.00 a year. I guess things happen for a reason. Thanks AAA! read more

Amazing! I came in here the other day to help my parents out with some dmv related documents but they didn't want to deal with dmv lines. The people who work here were super informative and helped answer every question my parents had and then some. I can't recommend this place enough, we were in and out in less than 15 minutes. I'll definitely keep this place in mind for my dmv needs in the future. Unfortunately they don't do everything but they do quite a bit! Highly recommend this location! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Andy at AAA was so patient and helpful with my DMV stuff.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great attitude and so appreciated!!![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]The hostess/greeter (Lisa?) was FANTASTIC. She was super helpful in providing maps and documents to help plan an upcoming RV-Van trip![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]She also updated me on all the helpful tools of aaa.com and trip planning.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I walked away with a several helpful maps and National Park guides to help add some flexibility to the trip too. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There was a gentleman that presented after me and her colleagues greeted him promptly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Very nice office with a helpful team. Thank you Hostess Lisa (gosh, I hope I got that right. . should have grabbed your card). read more

When the company I used for car insurance for over 20 years decided to stop covering California customers, we decided to look into AAA. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Dave was incredibly helpful and walked us through multiple estimates.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I was concerned that having a new teenage driver would make our payments really high. It turns out, it is more affordable than what we had been paying with the other company. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I really appreciated his knowledge and when I had a few questions after the policy was in place, he responded to my emails very promptly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Wow I normally don't write reviews but in this case I had too. Ezra was professional, courteous and on time. I was stressed out do to my car being stolen and unsure of allowing someone to come inside of my home. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ezra called at 7:30 a.m. to let me know he will be arriving at my appointment which was at 8 a.m.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] he came and got the job done. If you're planning on getting this security system, ask for Ezra . Thank you Tammy S. read more

Amazing, quick service. Worth the money to avoid the DMV and have the towing guarantee. Decent price with worldwide discounts.

I've had 4 issues with AAA this year and I've been a member since 2000 , in the pictures you'll see a picture of my membership card stating this . Issues 1. While receiving roadside service none of the service vehicles were equipped to jumpstart my truck due to a dead battery. 2. My other truck went into the body shop after being rear ended and after receiving the truck it still had the air bag light on . The claims adjuster did not want to address this issue and thought it was ok leaving me with a truck that was considered totaled . 3. When I canceled my roadside service portion of my membership, they wouldn't refund my money back even though the service they provided was insufficient and I had to wait for my employee to come jumpstart my truck . 4. I went into the Walnut Creek branch to finish a title transfer . They stated I need to do it on the computer . Even though there were employees sitting down with no customers. I've never had issues with AAA before . I'm canceling all services and letting my credit card companies recover the funds . read more

I recently stopped by to get some travel maps. I had to wait for someone ahead of me, no problem. When it was my turn next, the woman at the "check in " desk asked me for a list of what I wanted and then said I could have a seat and she would bring me the maps. I said " I'm ok standing". Within ONE MINUTE she had 3 of them. Then several more people walked into the office and she's, like, "l have to check them in BEFORE I can get you the rest of the maps ". I'm, like, no way am I going to wait for some indeterminate number of people to get checked in before I get the maps I'd already waited in line for. Like, really, how many more seconds would it take to check if she had the others??? I'm sure she was doing her job as it was explained to her but I found the entire experience extremely distasteful. My time isn't important???? read more

We had called and they said we do not need an appointment for an out-of-state inspection on a vehicle. We went in around 12 PM and were told the guy is on lunch so we waited an hour came back at 1 PM. the guy says we need an appointment and they don't have one until Monday at 3 PM, very furious because a Tesla requires almost no work literally the Vin number being written on a piece of paper we went to the Concord DMV and literally it took 30 seconds as I knew it would take. The guy up front at AAA said there's more to it. Nope. Useless morons at this AAA branch!! read more

If I can give this shitty branch a 0 star I wanted to! This place has no idea of what they are doing. They Are totally incompetent on insurance problems and when you get heated and start asking them questions the manager gets all upset and starts asking you to leave. Old ass lady doesn't get the memo that it's ok to ask clear logical questions that if you don't know the answers to. Do not go here for anything! AAA just lost a lifer and that's a damn shame!!! read more

This used to be a great branch office when they were located in Downtown Walnut Creek at Plaza Escuela. Since this office moved to the Encina Grande Shopping Center, both the re-location and the effects of the pandemic have resulted in less than the standard AAA customer service experience. The space is smaller than the previous location, and now there is an employee sitting at a kiosk taking customers' names and reason for the visit to access DMV services or AAA services. Agents seem to have less availability than before and a longer lead time for follow up. There are also fewer DMV associates available at the DMV counter. I was told this is due to pandemic protocols. It appears that a lot of AAA communication can, and is, done via the 800 number, AAA website, or AAA app, which might also explain the reduction in on site services. read more

I find this place very convenient. I used Travel services here as well as insurance renewals. However, I'm giving this place a low star rating because all the available services are no longer available. They are closed and have moved read more

Great place to get your passport picture done! They also gave us information and a quote for their security system.

Ezra showed up on site was very quick and handled the job very professionally and got it done pretty quick thank you

This review is for Andy in the DMV section of this branch. Long story but he spent over an hour with me recently , undoing what was a pretty big issue with my car, that had been accidentally non opped by someone at a different branch. It was a Friday and I was about to head out of town for Memorial Day weekend and I was highly stressed (terrible timing of course). Andy was so nice and patient and did what he needed to do to reverse this honest mistake that was made (I have 2 of the same car, same year and color). Andy, as well as anyone else Iv ever dealt with with AAA have always been great, customer service is always top notch , but Andy deserves a gold star!!!! read more

walked in to turn in some dmv forms because apparently you can do that so that's cool. as i entered, the receptionist (i think her name was Lisa), just gave me the wait finger because apparently she was having technical difficulties with her computer. lol -1 star babes i don't have time for rudeness today however miss Celeste helped me out and she was perfect. honestly a bundle of joy who could hold a personable conversation whilst still being professional. highly recommend her! someone give her a raise!!! yeah this AAA has pretty good service and i'm glad to have come and gotten all my paper work done and all in the name of disabled parking read more

I called the office yesterday morning looking to see if they had a car seat technician on staff. The gentleman who answered the phone informed me that service is no longer provided as it is only done online, that is false as my mother had one installed at her location in Sacramento. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I informed him of that and he transferred me to the front desk to which I was left on hold so long that I was sent to the main call center.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I informed them that I needed to speak with someone at the office, I tried again and went straight back to call center. So this operator said she'd transfer me directly to an agent. Guess what? I got her voicemail.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I left a message in hopes she'd contact me back promptly. Nope. I received a phone call after 5 pm this evening. Over 24 hours after leaving the message.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] In the meantime, I called and found out the CHP does the installation. I also, called all other AAA offices in my area and they promptly answered my question, either there technician was on vacation or at the moment they didn't have one on staff and were helpful in giving options for places that could help me. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Extremely disappointed in the lack of timely manner to which my call was returned or knowledge of staff.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Needed to replace our car & home insurance, called AAA 800#, got a quote, printed it out, made an appointment with an agent and tweaked the fine print to our needs and we were insured just like that. Thank you Kathleen Ellis. read more

This is the third time I have gone into their office. On all 3 occasions they offered no help. In fact I ended up at DMV and they helped with no fuss or mess. Today I was denied help because on letter in a hand written name was in their opinion was illegible. They are just horrible ppl read more

When I first started driving, my goal was to become a AAA member... maps, travel tips, guide books, inexpensive insurance... what more can you ask for. Well, then I learned that they don't take members without an existing insurance history, hence my first vehicle was insured by Allstate. Then after getting qualified and doing a price comparison, I became a longtime AAA insured customer and, of course, a AAA member. These days, with GPS and various map applications who needs maps anymore. I also enjoy reading their monthly Via magazine for travel tips. The membership provides three tows or emergency service visits per year. Unfortunately, my last vehicle was a Schlep Rock (love my Flintstones) car as Bay Area drivers treated it as a bumper car target. I used up all my 2016-17 service calls so, when my brother's van wouldn't start, I used his membership card to make that call. The service person arrived as scheduled, about an hour after my call to their 800 #. He checked the battery level (new as replaced by them a few months ago) and jump started it. Letting it run for about fifteen minutes to recharge the battery, he noticed where I hung the smart key. Noticing its close proximity, he advised me to move the key in another room as the vehicle continues communicating with the key even when parked and in the off position. He suspected this was the cause of the battery drain. Five stars to the service person for being observant and educating me on how to prevent this from happening again. Since I called the 800 #, didn't quite know who to credit so this goes to their Northern California headquarters. read more

Their service is more of a scam now. Won't tow. Additional charges etc. it's less expensive and stressful too just pay for a tow or service when needed!! read more

AAA - Insurance Near Me - Walnut Creek, California

OMG - I am so glad that I am not alone in experiencing terrible service at this AAA branch. The other one star reviews are absolutely correct. I have gone here on three occasions since they moved to Ygnacio - just two blocks from my home. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Each visit was met with unfriendly people that made it feel I was bothering them by coming into the branch.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]My son was with me the last time and he was astonished with the way the woman behind the counter treated us.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] On each occasion, I want to the Pleasant Hill branch and accomplished what I needed with friendly, kind, and knowledgeable help. The contrast was like black and white. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I don't even bother going to the WC location anymore.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Just went to Pleasant Hill yesterday and again had a wonderful friendly visit. Walnut Creek AAA should visit the other branch to see how well things can be run - not for me because I will always use the Pleasant Hill location, but other customers should be treated well too. read more

I went here to get maps.This is a nice clean shop and the service is great. I suggest using this place if you have AAA.

Hi All! Wanted to check in an put in an excellent word in for Andy Lau who was instrumental in getting my difficult registration through the process. It was effortless on my part but Andy picked up the slack willingly with a smile. If you have DMV needs, AAA is a slam dunk and Andy is your man! read more

CSAA Battery replacement has so many restrictions it is of no use. We bought a battery from them and it has failed. They came out and jumped it and advised there was an issue with the car not the battery and to see a mechanic. Well it's dead again and we can't jump it. The mechanic says it's dead and won't hold a charge. Beware, The warranty is only good if you are a member. They do not let you exchange for a new battery unless you are a member. We renewed the membership had them come out to exchange but they would not. I spent $180 for a battery that is dead and membership service that is not service and a warranty that has no value. If I had bought from Pep Boys I could at least exchange it for a new one. If I could give ZERO stars I would. read more

The week in October of the "CA DMV Catastrophic Hardware Failure" -- I called first - and was told there was NO line so buzzed out there right away to registered the newest motorcycle that hopefully will not be stolen (again). When I arrived - there were two women working the customer service area, and one woman was dealing with a very time consuming patron. Finally, a third woman arrived and the line grew longer. The Time Consuming Patron had showed up in person to ask for trip planning -- usually, I think it is considerate to phone in those requests for lengthy and complicated trips (think Bay Area to Florida with specific stops). The Time Consuming Patron INSISTED that she get every guide book for every state and metro -- and the poor AAA rep came back with two armloads of books (which Time Consuming Patron will probably never look at) and then Time Consuming Patron insisted that - in addition to the TripTik - that the AAA rep go over ALL the maps and highlight the route with a highlighter. In Real Time. When I finally got to the desk, the other two women were really busting out the DMV requests - I asked how long that other woman had been with Time Consuming Patron. My AAA rep didn't respond and just sighed - I asked "Has she even had lunch yet?" "Nope." On the way out - I asked the other AAA rep "Have a good day - did you get your lunch break yet?" To which she responded "Nope, not yet!" and I said "be careful, you might end up with a chauffeur gig!" (we had previously chatted in passing - Time Consuming Patron was soliciting information from EVERYONE in line - oh to be a privileged 70 year old white woman in Walnut Creek where everyone is your servant!). It is a credit that this AAA rep was dealing with the Time Consuming Patron for well over an hour and had not yet been able to take a lunch break but at what point do you say "Please come back tomorrow and we'll have this all ready for you in a package and walk you through it" so you can get people out the door who are a) not retired; b) have to file legal documentation before deadlines still being enforced despite CA DMV Catastrophic Hardware Failure of 10/16? It's a nice office, no problems with parking and everyone there is as efficient as you'll let them be -- just don't be abusive of their time when there are a lot of people waiting (they do take appointments for travel planning!) read more

Racist and rude, she didn't provide us with her supervisor information she was a headache now I have to deal with my own insurance for something that I have no fault. read more

See all

AAA has a separate room next to their office where there is 24 hours access to maps in vending machines. unfortunately, the door/lock wasn't functioning properly when i passed by weeks ago. would be fab if i could get maps anytime i wanted. read more

Complete idiots who waste your time. Worse than the dmv. Everything is "2 Second's" and then they make you wait in one line and then it's the WRONG line and they make you go to another one for another "2 Second" service while in the meantime, a whole bunch of people come in and you now have to wait in original line again. One person working the membership service for a line of elderly people? And then someone leaves mid service for a break? Really???? MORONS!!!! read more

Great experience! Got checked in and was seen quickly. Lisa at the front was very friendly and helped pass the time as we waited in line. Lots of social distancing, sanitizing, and masks. Parking is easy as it's in the Whole Food's lot beside Ace Hardware. read more
