We also staff knowledgeable service writers and employ only the highest ASE-certified mechanics that demonstrate expertise in every automotive service. Escondido Auto Tech has built a reputation based on high-quality and affordable work, as well as a commitment to providing excellent customer service. We are confident in our work and are pleased to offer our extended 24 month/24,000 mile warranty to prove it. We are a full-service auto repair shop that offers an extensive list of services.

We believe the proper recycling and disposal of hazardous waste is one of the most important things we can do to protect the world around us, which is why we have partnered with Asbury Environmental to pick up and dispose of our waste oil and filters and Reliable Tire to recycle our used tires. 


In addition to to maintaining clean water and soil, we are dedicated to restoring clean air to San Diego. Escondido Auto Tech is not only a STAR Smog Station, which allows us to repair vehicles that have failed their smog inspection, but we are part of the leading school (Furgerson's Automotive and Smog Training) in San Diego that trains mechanics to become CA licensed smog test and repair inspectors.

In The Beginning...


Escondido Auto Tech was quickly nicknamed E.A.T. by a growing loyal customer base. Starting out as a small two technician shop, E.A.T. grew along with the Escondido community. Then in 1998, the owner purchased the land in which the building sat on and began the transformation that has brought us to the state of the art facility of today. Not only did the owner expand the building but completely remodeled the entire facility.

...Still Running


In keeping with that goal to be the best, E.A.T. has always hired the top, most experienced technicians and management in the industry. Furthermore, with the acquisition of the most up to date equipment and ongoing education and training E.A.T. is the facility you want to bring your vehicle and refer your friends to. Most recently, Escondido Auto Tech was named "Best In Auto Repair, National Gold Winner" by the American Automobile Association (AAA)
