    Waited 18 months to receive personalized license plates. Even though we spoke with DMV employees…read moremultiple times during the wait, the problem just festered. First mistake: DMV mailed the plates to a non-existent address. Second mistake: 6 months later DMV admitted the plates were returned. 3rd mistake: 6 months later employee said she had the plates and would mail them that day. 4th mistake: Never mailed. Finally talked with a manager who said he would investigate. He admitted that there is a chronic problem of lost license plates due to clerical errors. Two weeks later: The plates arrive. The package was postmarked 3 days previously. So the plates sat in some twilight zone box on some one's desk for 17 months. I'm a pro public service endorser, and was a CA state employee for 17 years. But this agency needs an entire overhaul. Replacement of upper management and all poorly performing employees is warranted. The given the exorbitant DMV fees and our high CA taxes we deserve better service.

    Car was stolen in Tijuana DMV didn't have a solution for a year. I want to replace my old review…read morebecause it was a bit of a rage rant. This is shameful what you put me and my family through. Great now I got to renew my drivers license and call you guys again because it didn't come in the mail. And probably won't but I'll give it 2 months. I notice that your phone line has anger calming music everyone yell at them!

    Do you love waiting? The DMV is perfect for that! This office of 'Draining My Vitality' (DMV for…read moreshort) is great for that. If you make an appointment, try to do it for the early morning. If you have an appointment in the afternoon you still end up waiting over an hour. I initially went in without an appointment and had to wait over 3 hours to be helped. I was getting my license renewed/getting a real id. A month passed and I was wondering where my new license is. I called their office (was put on hold for an hour, sigh... more waiting) and they said test pending. The lady on the phone told me to go back to the DMV office to get it overridden. This time I did the 'wait in line' option online so I didn't have to wait at their office for hours. I waited at home for 1 and a half hours and drove in before my number was to be called. When they helped me they said my renewal didn't even start processing yet. They cut waiting times by a lot, I remember a decade ago I wasted about 6 hours at the DMV to get my license renewed, but this is unacceptable. I go in to wait 3 hours to get a my renewal, wait another month only to find out they never started processing my renewal. At least I got a temporary license because mine expires soon!

    I arrived without an appointment. Stood in line, was helped and given a number. Meanwhile I updated…read moremy info at the kiosks by window 1. Once completed I just had to wait my turn. I was helped, renewed my license, paid then was referred to another line to obtain an updated photo. Easy to do, hour and a half weight from start to finish, friendly courteous customer service representatives. Adequate waiting area with ample seats, clear audio / video next in line status and updates. Great experience. Only complaint, it was freezing in the building. Again great experience and customer service.
