This time, I needed a few filters changed. They showed me how dirty they were and I opted for the one which is harder to change. I can do the other one myself. They also told me what's coming up next and how long it would take. I've always found the service techs to be honest. Get on their email list and they'll send you coupons. Even if you don't, they always have a deal or something behind the counter they can apply. Just ask if there's a coupon or something. They have free wifi. The password is posted in the waiting area. See you for my next oil change.

After a lot of Yelp research, I found Escondido Auto Tech. I brought my vehicles for a smog and got great service each time. Found them easy to work with too. Next, I brought in my car for maintenance and a list of repairs and items to check on. Let me not bore with the mundane details, just know: -they took good care of the car, addressing every item on my list. -Frank, the service manager, took the time to discuss the list of repairs with me and explained what they would do-to make sure we were on the same page with everything. He listens! In fact, when he received the list (which I'd emailed ahead of time) he immediately spotted a safety issue and reached out to me to get it addressed promptly. -they finished the work AHEAD of the promised completion time -took the trouble to score parts at a lower price than quoted (and passed on the savings!) -provided a detailed completed work order with information I about my vehicle that I found valuable. Like I said, call me a fan!

They weren't brand headlights so, I took their word for it. I honestly expected to pay, but they installed them at no cost. So, you get what you pay for.. The bumper ended up popping off 3 months later. I went back to Oceanside. The guy said they could fix it and sent me to Escondido, where the mechanic there said he couldn't and I had to go to a body shop. Now, I have to pay $1300 for a new bumper and installation. I would have liked to send an email directly to the owner asking for some compensation, but I was not able to reach him. This is in no reflection of the superb work they do at Meineke in Oceanside or Escondido, I will always go back to them in the future for my regular car maintenance.

Smog check comes out to be $78.20 before the coupon (including the certification). While I was waiting, I found a $40 off coupon on their website so I showed it to the person that was helping me. I was aggressively questioned as why didn't show the coupon right in the beginning. He then told me I would have to reschedule since it has to be a physical copy of the coupon. I had to point out the coupon says "printed or mobile". There must have been some misunderstanding because who shows a coupon before paying??? Despite the unpleasant questioning, the service was fast. If you are also coming here for a $38.20 smog check, make sure to present the coupon like your life depends on it.

Our ultra reliable 2013 Sonata Hybrid started overheating and I had to find a local service company…read morefor the first time in Rancho Bernardo. There were three auto repair companies right next door to my office in RB but after reviewing Yelp, I discovered that there was a much much better one a few miles away. Trusting Yelp, I immediately headed over to Ricks RB Auto because his reviews were not only much much better but the praise to the quality of work gave me a very high comfort level. I was not disappointed. Driving into his shop is not that impressive being part of a shell station but the staff were efficient and friendly even though they were closing. They wasted no time diagnosing the issue. It was a leak in the cooling system in the rear section of the engine. Rick made me comfortable that he'll take care of it ASAP. The very next day the car was ready and Rick mentioned he ran into some issues. It turned out that it wasn't just a hose but a special water pump attached to the hybrid system that was cracked into two! Turned out this is a $900 part because Hyundai sells it as part of a larger piece that connects to the manifold, so he went to another source and found a refurbished part for just $200! Saving me $700. He not only saved me a huge amount of money had I taken it elsewhere but made several important recommendations on belt replacement as the car was aging. I told him he is going to be the only company to look after this car from now on! Well believe it or not, the car overheated again a few days later and off it went back to Rick. He assured me they will take care of it and boy did they. It turned out to be another hose failure in a different part of the engine. He not only replaced it and the coolant but charged me absolutely nothing!!! Even though the problem was brand new. I'm sold and I will highly recommend Rick to my friends and to anyone else in San Diego. It's so rare to see such service anywhere.

Then he actually was willing to replace rotors without charge. It was after we had a couple confrontations regarding the initial service. However Rick offered and he kept his word, he replaced rotors for free. The problem is there is still a squil. The vehicle brakes safely but the squil drives me crazy. I just surprise after so much effort it still there. Not necessarily their expertise or not. Brakes were taking care of and more as it was my original request.
