So, this is what Mason Aiello, the owner of Cal Auto Glass emailed me: "You're the pathetic piece of shit that complains whenever possible to get something for nothing. " I had called (June 23, 2022) to get a windshield replaced after it cracked badly. I went in to get a small crack repaired last fall and Cory, the worker, said not to worry as it won't get worse. Well, it did get worse. I would not need a windshield now had he done his job right. So I called to see how they could make it right, AND, I was not looking for a free job. Mason did not listen and started to tell me how cracks are created and so on, weaseling his way out of it. No worries, I said thanks and hung up. He then started to email me about how I should take the sucker out of my mouth and so on. So I called him an ahole, which is my opinion, and he kept sending disturbing emails. The emails were very deranged and abusive. Be careful and shop elsewhere. read more

Driving on I-5 on thanksgiving day and heard a loud noise, next thing I see is a spider wine like crack surrounded by a ring shape crack. Justin responded to my voicemail promptly even it was on thanksgiving day. Forgot to take a before picture, but it definitely turned out better than I thought. Given the size and depth of the crack, I didn't expect it to turn out better than this. Thanks Justin for the good work. read more

My second rock ding in 6 months. Super annoying but so glad that I found this place a few months ago. The ding occurred at 2:08pm today. Came home and called my insurance who connected me to Justin. He was so awesome and I was able to make an appointment for him to come to where I live at 4pm. He even showed up 10 mins early. He does great work and I would recommend him to everyone that needs a ding in their car windshield fixed. Thanks Justin!! read more

I scheduled my appointment at 10 am. Justin came by and finished the job in about 30 minutes. Great customer service. Repaired windshield crack the size on my pinky nail. Looks great! read more

***SCAM SCAM SCAM*** I've always been cautious of these car wash auto glass repair spots and now my intuition has been confirmed. Small crack on my windshield which I knew had to be correct asap as to not have it spread. Went to get my weekly car wash and got the sales pitch. I decided to let the "professionals" take care of it, as I bought an at home repair kit but had no experience. The worker Justin did a below average job on the repair but I didn't care I just didn't want the crack to spread and end up having to buy a new windshield. Day 2 I noticed the crack started spreading, immediately went back to the worker Justin and expressed my concern. He ASSURED me the crack wouldn't spread and so I bite my tongue and took his word for it. Less than a week later the crack spread over 4 inches and I immediately went back to the worker Justin and again expressed my anger. His response, sorry we can refund the insurance the money but can't fix your windshield or replace it, even though there was a "lifetime guarantee" on the deal. He called his boss, also Justin and had him on speaker explaining my situation. They said they could give me a discount on a windshield but that was about it. I didn't have time and asked the worker to have Justin email and call me later in the day. End of the work day comes and I didn't hear a word. So I called the boss Justin and said hey it's Ricardo how are we going to fix this problem, he replied with Ricardo who. I explained to him Justin spoke to him on the phone earlier that day again his response was I haven't spoken to him all day. I was thrown back, I told him I was there when you spoke to him, I heard what you said which he then decided to respond with I've never heard of you and hung the phone up on me. Let's talk about how unprofessional this company is, how they promise a lifetime warranty but use a play on words to slime their way out of it. Justin and his team have been nothing but a headache and unfortunately for them, they upset the wrong customer. Their questionable contract is under review by a lawyer and I will be bringing a civil action lawsuit against them. I'll keep updated. ***STAY AWAY*** read more

I got a crack in my windshield from a rock on the highway. I called Cal Auto Glass and they were able to send someone out the same day to fix it. They did such a great job you can't even see any remnants of the crack. I appreciated their professionalism and great customer service, 5 stars well deserved! read more

Thank you Justin for saving me. I was driving on the freeway and a rock hit my windshield, it looked like it was spreading fast. I called CAL AUTO GLASS , and Justin came within the hour and did such a great job. He is very kind and professional and my windshield looks great. Oh and!!!! If the crack spreads for any reason in the future the money spend on filling the crack goes towards a new windshield. Thank You Justin!!! read more

Justin was the absolute best. I was having the worst morning ever, and the cherry on top was a rock aggressively hitting my windshield on the 5N as I was heading to work. After talking to several friends and coworkers (and fearing a $200 repair) I called CA auto through a recommendation. Justin answered right away and was able to meet me at my office in La Jolla within an hour. Justin was super friendly, personable and proactively contacted my insurance so that I had no out of cost payment. He also has great taste in podcasts. Within 20 minutes my glass ding was hardly visible. Highly recommend this company! read more

Made an appointment to replace windshield. Never showed up and never returned phone call. Enough said!

Justin was friendly, fast, and on time. I called him and asked for an immediate work done on a small chip I didn't want to get any bigger and it's done! Thanks. read more

Worst experience ever!!Justin the tech glued my rear view mirror on UPSIDE DOWN after he asked me which way it goes on?!?!?! Then refused to fixe it. Said he couldn't do anything and it was an accident. Are you kidding me?!?!?! Luckily i quickly found a PROFESSIONAL shop and they were able to fix it.. They couldn't believe it....BEWARE!!!!!!! read more

Justin is the man! We took a trip down to San Diego to catch a baseball game last week and unfortunately a big truck kicked up some debris and put a big chip into my windshield. Since I drive a beat up old chevy I debated even getting it fixed......but who wants to be that guy? Luckily I whipped out Yelp and found california auto solutions. Obviously there were some bigger shops with 100+ reviews but i don't like to support those guys, I am glad I didn't. I called Justin and he came right over to take care of my car personally. Quick fix. Easy. Done. If you need to get your windshield fixed (even if you drive an old chevy) give them a call. I highly recommend them! read more

Called Justin during work after a rock had chipped my windshield during the weekend. He was able to come to my work within a few hours, and perform the process in our parking lot. He was very knowledgable and was even willing to give me a discount. Overall, my experience was very good, and will be recommending California Auto Solutions to all of my friends in the area. read more

Justin was amazing. I called him this morning at 9 30am and he scheduled to come to my place and fix a crack in my windshield by noon the same day!! And on a Sunday too! He was super nice, and did such a great job I can't even tell where the crack is. Def recommend him if you have any windshield , window issues ! He even went the extra mile and showed me how to claim the repair cost with my insurer. One of the best experiences I have ever had with anything car repair related ! read more

Coming home from work yesterday a rock hit my windshield on the passenger side and left a little crack. I have Geico and they recommended California Auto Solutions. I called up today and spoke directly to the owner: Justin Heinrich. He was super friendly and was able to fit me into his schedule today. He personally came and took care of everything. I would definitely recommend them to anyone who needs a windshield fix. He helped turn a bad situation into a quick and pain-free fix :) read more

After a rock hit my windshield driving up the 15 headed to Lake Elsinore on a rainy Saturday night, I needed to find a windshield repair place close to work after the first windshield repair we went to was closed. Found Justin on here with great reviews. Was planning to swing by after work but turns out he can come to wherever you are. Perfect timing since I had to do overtime at work. He works fast & did a great job on my windshield. Price was great too. He offers a lifetime guarantee on his work. And accepts credit card payments as well. read more

My experience in May 2019 was great. I sent them a message, and heard back very quickly - asking about the year, make, model and damage. I got an estimate shortly afterwards, all within an hour. Nash came to my car at work. He pointed out a few other window chips that I hadn't noticed. I watched him replace the whole windshield in about 45 minutes. The process was fascinating. Professional, fast response, very reasonable price. Thank you! read more

i loved the work great costumer service did an awesome job justin great guy definitely would come back highly recommend their great!!!!!!! read more

While driving down to San Diego I a got a pretty nasty rock chip in the windshield. While I was annoyed I didn't think much of it...until I left my car on the top of a parking garage and I the sun or heat expansion caused it to get much worse. I found California Auto Solutions on Yelp and they were able to get me a new windshield the same day! Impressive. Thanks Guys. read more

These guys are awesome! They work with insurance and replace your glass at any site you prefer. -Prompt and efficient service -Friendly -Professional I definitely recommend! read more

Justin is awesome! Quick work, good quality outcome, and insurance paid for it so I'm happy! He went out of his way to call Farmers for me and then just handed me his phone so I could give my info to them. By the time we were done with the phone call he was wrapping up the repair for me and I was on my way. This is my second time coming to him and both times he's made it super easy for me. Last time I needed a small chip handled, he came to my work and he did it in the parking lot, only coming in to ask for a signature. read more

Wonderful job. The gentleman came out quickly to seal up the dime-sized crack on my windshield and did a QUALITY job. It's now barely noticeable and crossing fingers won't spider thus saving me hundreds of dollars to replace the windshield. Thanks! read more

Well Justin seems to be a nice guy and response fast, I have a tiny rock chip on my windshield, so i sent request on yelp to several repair shops and Justin was the first one replied and offered to come to my office, and he showed up on time and was nice and all However here I have to give only two star is because the repair job he did was pretty bad in my perspective. The chip size was so tiny so I would expect a good result, I know it won't be perfect but the chip should at least be hard to detect afterwards. But it was not, after his repair, I have a bigger, white spot on my windshield, and it is worse than before makes me feel like I should not have repaired it. Justin told me in advance the after results won't be completely invisible, ok I understand but not like this? A big white spot on my wind shield that I can observe from 6 feet away...? Her told me he used best quality resin but it doesn't seems to be the case, he also drilled a bit more around the chip maybe that's how the after results got bigger spot I donno if I'm asking too much for the result , but I will have to take it to another shop and see if they can fix this poor repair... :( because every time I see that white spot it drives me nuts! I wanted to give only 1 star but I m adding one more star for the fast response :/ read more

Driving up the 805 past the construction of the new trolley stop, I picked up a rock on my windshield causing a little chip. Expecting to be spending hundreds on a new windshield, I called around price shopping. My search ended when Justin at Cal Auto Glass suggested I have the chip fixed rather than replaced. This suggestion saved me two hundred dollars and the repair looks great. A tiny gray blemish remains where the crack was. Justin had informed me this would be the result. I'm happy with the service and recommend. read more

Justin the owner was awesome. Mobil windshield repair for $63 but when he got to my house he asked me what auto insurance I had (USAA) and told me they do the repair for free under my coverage (umm thank you!). He gave me their # and we did the claim right there; it took like 15 minutes or less total. Super grateful. Thanks Justin! :) read more

Justin was there at our prearranged meeting place (at the prearranged time). The two chips (in my windshield) were both fixed in six minutes. The best part was it costs me nothing. Well not really...my insurance company paid the tab (and over the last six years I've been paying my insurance company). But on this day at our prearranged meeting there was no cash out of my pocket! Can't say that the work is invisible, but the finish product sure looks better that the dime size chips that were in my windshield. So here is a message to all the tiny rocks on the road. Your battle is over, California Auto Solutions is here to stay to maintain the driver's clear visual of the roadway. Thanks Justin read more

Amazing service!!! They came the same day straight to my office and repaired two cracks on my windshield!!! Fast and convenient and reasonable priced. They take cards too!!! read more

I called after a rock had chipped my windshield and had caused it crack in every direction from there. I thought I was going to have to replace my windshield because of the quick rate it was spreading. But Justin was able to come to my home between my shifts and fix it in bout 20 mins. Justin was very nice and my windshield looks great! He even assisted me with the insurance portion. Would definitely recommend him! read more

Saturday morning I woke up to find my car had been broken into. The back passenger window compeletely shattered. I called Cal Auto Glass after comparing prices to other companies. They were able to send an installer to my apartment complex hours later with a new window. They also vacuumed all the broken glass in my car and provided a warranty on the installation. I hope I never have another broken window but if I do I'll know where to go. read more

Called Justin after getting my windshield chipped by a stray rock going through a construction zone on the 5. Justin was friendly, prompt and super fast - he was at my office in Del Mar within 2 hours of my call. Upon inspection, he also found another chip in my windshield and repaired that as well (cost of repair is per windshield, not per chip, so I guess I got my money's worth by having multiple chips). Total service time had to have been less than 20 minutes and came out to $65. I hope not to have another windshield issue, but I know who to call if I do. read more
