Very knowledgeable staff. always helpful and great parking. I've used them for years. As a veteran I really appreciate that they are up to speed on the new changes to Disabled Veteran plates. Fees are very reasonable considering the wasted time in line at the DMV, and the unreliable DMV Kiosks that make me go to the DMV 90 percent of the time - I recommend the CA Auto Registration service instead. read more

Pay a few extra bucks. Save a ton on time and DMV heartache. Been to this place 5 times for auto registration and registering vehicle I've purchased. In and out in less than ten minutes every time. read more

By far the best experience I've had dealing with anything vehicle related. Long story short, I'm handling my mother's probate and I live in Florida. I tried calling DMV several times and got nowhere, and when speaking to someone they were short, never explained anything and on top of all that told me I would be paying over 1K in fees. I stumbled upon the CARS (Fallbrook Branch) listing thinking it was a satellite DMV office and gave them a ring for some amplifying info. Started speaking with Shawna and throughout the entire process she was spot on 100%, very knowledgeable, and put it all on the table for me to understand. Besides normal dealings with vehicle registration this was a very new situation I've never dealt with, and Shawna handled and explained all perfectly. Because I live completely on the opposite coast and had to deal with mailing important docs, as well as a timeline while dealing with Lawyers and the Court, she spent a good amount of time, several times, to ensure all paperwork and docs were filled out correctly and put me at ease with knowing I would get my documents back. Not only did they spend a good amount of time with me ensuring all paperwork was done right, but they also processed it, got my vehicle situated correctly, sent back my documents as well as new DMV documentation and were able to save me over $800 in fees. That is a huge plus for my situation dealing with a death and probate. Throughout the whole process Shawna was professional, kind, listened to my long story (several times) and understood what I was going through, and she absolutely made sure my issue was taken care of. A huge shout out to CARS (Shawna) in Fallbrook. The one thing I will mention is that there is a fee for using CARS, which I could have missed or not heard when it was explained to me with everything I was dealing with. But the fee for using CARS, in my issue was insignificant and well worth the great experience vice going to the actual DMV and getting shuffled around for hours. I will only use CARS from now on. Thank you Shawna! read more

Excellent customer service and knowledge from Kara as she walked me thought a difficult RV registration problem. I had called the DMV a few times and in two states and never got the same answer twice. Kara patiently listened, gave her insight and resolved the problem quickly, efficiently and fairly priced. I will refer this company to my friends in Fallbrook and the surrounding area! Thanks Kara! read more

By far the easiest and most effective way to deal with the California DMV. Carissa was was extremely helpful and knowledgeable in regards to my situation. I had an issue with my plates, she identified the problem and proposed a solution. I received my plates and tags within days. A weight was lifted off my shoulders that day and it's all thanks to California Auto Registration Services. Do yourself a favor, forget the DMV call C.A.R.S. Instead. read more

Kara is amazing! She helped me with a title transfer last week, and was extremely friendly and witty--great customer service rep.!

What more can I say, Kara H. made this stressful interaction so seamless and FAST. Not only was California Auto Registration Services extremely convenient and easy, Kara made the whole process a breeze. I didn't lift a figure! She answered all my questions with confident advice and took over the whole process for me. I hate the DMV and I'll never go without California Auto Registration Services and Kara again! read more

Thank goodness for this place!! I first went to a different office in Vista to take care of my registration (which was late) they were not helpful at all, and tried to overcharge me by hundreds of dollars. I found this place, and they took care of everything, with extremely reasonable fees. I was also delighted to find out that they do VIN verification...saved me a ton of time, SO worth it! The ladies here are very knowledgeable and organized....I will never again go to the DMV or any other registration office. read more

Best DMV service I have ever used; helped me with several difficult registrations AND saved me some money in the process. HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEM FOR ALL YOUR DMV NEEDS!!! read more

I went in to get my car registered, during the conversation I kept asking about fees or additional charges and felt like my question was being avoided. Finally I get her to print out a list of what i'm paying for but the additional service charge and credit charge were NOT included on the list. So I go to pay and when they ring me up theres $60+ of additional charges. I decide to walk and give the DMV a call and they tell me they wouldn't have these extra credit and service fees. I was planning to go to the DMV anyways the next day to get a new license so i decide i'll just kill two birds with one stone and handle it all there. The lady texts me the next morning asking when im going to come in and pay and i tell her my plans have changed. She then proceeds to keep texting me and harrassing me saying i owe them money and guilt triping me saying im stealing from a family business. They are also sending notices to an address of a family member where I dont even live, but used as a temporary address while I was in the middle of a move. I have EVERY right to change my mind about a transaction up until the point of payment. Shady business practices and they were not upfront with me but decided to process the registration without me paying first which is extremely unprofessional to process something without my payment. Just because i "say" im going to pay does not mean i am not allowed to change my mind about a transaction, especially when they did not tell me about the fees up front when I asked. read more

I have had several DMV transactions taken care of at CAR Services in Fallbrook. By far easier, faster and cost effective than dealing with DMV directly. Every experience was handled by Carissa professionally and knowledgeably. She gives your situation 100% of her attention span, is very helpful and a pleasure to talk with. Definitely a healthy work ethic and an asset to the Fallbrook, Bonsall and Rainbow areas. - Jon B. read more

I completely agree with all the other reviews here. I had a tricky title/registration challenge that had been haunting me for years, and that I needed to deal with from 3000 miles away. In the last month, I decided to tackle it and made a number of calls direct to the CA DMV headquarters line, spending hours and hours on calls with various representatives. I spoke with several registration service providers who offered services and provided quotes that ran the gamut. All seemed like shots in the dark and with varying strategies & prices, and varying feelings of shadiness coming from the other side of the phone call. Then I spoke with the folks at CA Registration Services and immediately knew that they "got it". Several back and forth phone calls with them resulted in a simple, painless transaction and a successful result. I cannot recommend them enough. Absolutely top notch service. Great humans and great attitudes. read more
