I have been a member of AAA my whole life and it is worth it!! The DMV services offered at AAA offices make your day a lot easier! The agents at this location are extremely helpful, professional and accommodating.

Clean well lit venue. Courtesy permeates the service and management. Excellent customer service and intelligent response to the occasional disruptor in paradise. 😎

Got a triptik map but nothing else. Not sure if they are supposed to help figure the mileage that you want to drive each day and of the best closest location to stop and set up hotels but the person we had was not willing to do that. Just wanted to know the location we wanted to stop in and the hotel and then she would be able to help with that but that was the problem my parents didnt know what city they would be at and State if they only wanted to drive 460 miles each day. So I just took them at home with me to figure it out for them.

I needed to switch titles of a car, pay a registration fee and show proof of a smog check. The staff helped me get through the process in a quick efficient manner. I only spent about 15 minutes there. Very satisfied with the friendly service too!

I went to the AAA in Escondido but they werent allowing people inside due to COVID19. I filed my claim by phone. About 10 days later my car was fixed. The rental they provided was great. They did a great job.

Sad state of affairs...AAA wont let you speak to any humans by phone now because of covid...so if you are trying to let your fingers do the walking and save time and gas money...dont count on it. Even today, when one office had its DMV site offline for getting car registration done...you couldnt call another office and ask a human about their DMV capability.

Review №36

I was treated poorly by a really rude employee named Sharon. She seems to suffer from mental confusion, and unable to provide clear answers. Instead of taking responsibility for her own ineptitude, she blamed me and talked down to me like I was the stupid one. I do not pay for a membership so I can be treated like this. Sharon’s attitude is unacceptable. This office has bad customer service and the employees are impatient and condescending.

SUCH an incredible experience! I came in at 4 PM on a Tuesday (yes, during Covid), and I was in and out in less than a half hour. No appointment either, I was a walk up that happened to stop by on the way home from work.What to expect right now during COVID:-There is a shaded booth set up out front where they ask what you need. You fill out a form on a clipboard outside and then you go inside to pay/get any documents needed. So fast! I was able to pay my registration, get a replacement title for my car, change my name and my address, all in aboir 1/10th of the time it would have taken at the DMV.-They are following Covid rules closely (must wear masks, social distance inside, glass windows between you and the employee etc.).Payment Methods:Theyre only accepting cash/check right now so dont forget your checkbook, otherwise youll need to stop by an ATM (plenty of banks around the shopping center if youre in a pinch).Customer Service:Holy cow, everyone was so incredibly friendly and helpful! They even offered me a AAA branded bottle of water while I waited! The ladies at the outside booth were extremely kind and didnt make me feel rushed or hurried when I had questions. The lady that helped me inside was also so wonderful that the customer service experience almost made me forget that I was at AAA. With free water bottles, A/C inside and great customer service, theyre basically only a shoulder massage away from feeling like a day spa instead of a AAA office. 😂10/10!

The customer service here is amazing. Everyone I’ve dealt with at the from is so helpful and Milissa, one of the travel agents, was so helpful. She helped us plan our trip to Japan and we had a great time in Japan. We will definitely be be going back to her when we plan our trip to northern Italy.

Review №51

Ive had AAA for the 4 years Ive been driving. They have covered me more than excellently in any accident Ive been involved in. When I was hit by an uninsured motorist, they handled evey part of the accident. My car was taken care of and everything was replaced, not repaired. They put me in a rental even though I was 17 and they upgraded me free. If you are to cheap to pay for rental coverage then they dont give you a complimentary rental in the case of an accident, kinda common sense. When I crashed my car brand new BMW into another brand new BMW (neither of us even had our state plates yet) they covered me, again without any pressure or issues, everything again was replaced, not repaired. They covered the other party and myself with equivalent vehicle rentals.As for this office specifically, they are amazing. They know me by name and have helped me out with anything I had issues with, including the transfer of my vanity plates as well as ordering some for my other vehicle with an amazing attitude. They are a fun group and are very personable. Ive recommended many family members here and they all have had the same great experience. If you had an issue here before, I highly recommend you go in and ask for Quincy, he will help you out and explain everything clearly.

They were of great help to me after my stickers and handicap sign were taken from my car. A friend with triple AAA took me their. She placed me on her card for 6 months and I left with a new sticker and a sign. Just needed my doctors original form and car insurance paperwork and vechical registration. I cant thank my sweet neighbor enough and the staff at San Marcos triple A.

You have to wait outside and only one person inside at a time. If you want to get tags for your car, you pay inside and wait outside and someone will bring it out to you.

AAA goes above and beyond for all of our needs. Where else could you do DMV services, all insurance needs and travel discounts, all in one place? I have been a member for 20+ years and will never go any where else. I strayed 2x and regretted it both times. Customer for life.

I cancelled my Renters Insurance with them on May 1st. I still had a payment taken out on June 12th. When I called to get this reversed I was told they completed the cancellation transaction on May 25th. When asked why they still took out a payment I was told by Jose-Insurance Agent He wasnt sure why this hasnt been resolved, sometimes the other departments just dont communicate well. But for my inconvenience I now get to wait 10 days for my money back. Thanks AAA for validating my decision to change service.

Review №69

Would not book a trip with them. Beware of their travel insurance ! After 6 months, I did not receive a full refund and have been give a cruise credit with Carnival for 1/2 of the price of the cruise I booked. Tornados prevented getting to that cruise, the paperwork I was sent said if weather causes the cancellation, I am entitled to a full cash refund. I am left feeling like the travel insurance is a scam. I am now out $690, despite have insurance.

Very unfriendly staff..avoid this location, if possible. I read on-line that AAA members are allowed to fax for free and when I got there, I was abruptly told (shouted at actually by a woman behind the counter and sitting in a chair) that it was not true and I must have read about another Auto Club. Well, I did not imagine it....but is it really too much of a bother to let a member fax a document? Horrible representation and horrible company. BTW, I have been a AAA Member for 15 years! Nice job, AAA.Here is what I just copied from the internet: Faxing is free at most office locations for AAA members and available only to members. If youre not currently an AAA member you can join and get the benefits of their roadside assistance help along with the ability to fax items for free

Review №79

I wish I could give a - star review this is the worst AAA office I have ever been to.... I showed up to this office with only one person in front of me they had me sit down and they had 6 people come in behind me and get helped first. I was doing an out of state transfer and they told me I had to get my vehicle weighed when I got there and I looked it up while I was waiting on the dmv Web site and saved it. Then I got helped for one second with some paper work then told to sit back down an hour later the same person came to help me again. He started in with getting my vehicle weighed and I showed him the dmv Web site so he went and got 2 other workers to argue with me about it. another hours more of arguing about the weight issue and my vehicle was registered to me. 3 and a half hours there. I would of had a better time at the dmv or getting a root canal.

DMV service is exceptional. I do all my transactions here because they know how to get it done. Even my complicated title change from another state that had a vin error was completed in a timely manner.Its not AAAs fault that the CA DMV rules are complicated and fees may not make sense, thats a different issue.
