Rod was the only shop nearby that actually picked up the phone when my fleet called to see if they could tiny my windows. My only knock was that I did call for a couple days without reaching anyone, but once I was in communication with Rod, things went really smoothly (it's his direct line, so not surprised with how busy he is). He made an appointment for me at 10:30am, but after I realized I had a conflict, he allowed me to drop the car off early and dealt with all of my complicated paperwork (fleet vehicle) over an hour early. When I picked up the car several hours later, the tinting looked good except for a quarter sized air bubble. He immediately squeezed it out. I also mentioned streaks on my window exterior that weren't there before and he went ahead and washed the whole side of my car. I was more than happy with the level of service. I'm really happy with how the tinting turned out. This was only a couple days ago, so time will tell how it continues to hold up. If I don't update this review it's pretty safe to say I'm still satisfied with the tint job I got! read more

I returned to this location, Rod no longer works here and evidently he took his customer service with him. I went in for a chip repair on my windshield and was quoted an unreasonable price, I recommend buying a repair kit from Amazon and to do it yourself. read more

Star Auto Glass & Window Tinting - Escondido's best windshield repair and replacement - Windshield Installation & Repair Near Me - Escondidio, California

Called in the morning and was able to bring my vehicle in right away. Quick and fast service. Very nice guys there, very helpful.

Drove up and immediately greeted and taken care of within minutes of arrival! Very happy with the customer service.

Had this gentleman repair my rear windshield two weeks ago. Upon inspection after repair I ask that's the deal with all the rattling glass in the panels, he said he couldn't do anything about it. Now my rear door doesn't close properly. You get what you pay for, but the repair was poor and it took nearly an hourly longer than he promise. read more

Update: Back again!! Bad luck with freeway rocks. Patched up just like that. Thanks guys! read more

Star Auto Glass & Window Tinting - Windshield Installation & Repair Near Me - Escondidio, California

DO NOT GIVE YOUR BUSINESS TO THIS PLACE. GO PAY DOUBLE SOMEWHERE ELSE JUST TO AVOID THIS PLACE. my first interaction was a good one. He gave me a good price and a warranty and was able to get me in ASAP. It took a pretty long time (about 4 hours) to complete but i was okay with that. My car sat for 2 weeks after that while I was on vacation and I came back to a huge bubble in the tint on my back seat window as well as a bunch of little air bubbles all over every other window. I scheduled a time to bring it back to him to which he agreed.. i show up on my scheduled day and he's not there and no one can get ahold of him. I finally get a call back the next day and he asks me to bring it back a week later. So, I took it back to him and told him I wanted it fixed. He told me that those bubbles are inevitable and that's just what happens with tint. (For anyone who's had their car tinted before that is obviously not true at all) He tried to blame it on my car being dirty even tho it had just been washed right before I got it done. He then tried to tell me that only 3 of the 7 windows needed to be retinted which was inaccurate because every window had those tiny bubbles all over. The tint job the second time around took almost 6 hours. Thank god I had a ride that day or else I would've been stuck in their empty waiting room. I give the new tint job a week... AND STILL BUBBLES. TINY BUBBLES EVERYWHERE. I called and told him that I want to bring it back tomorrow (a Tuesday) right when he opens (9am according to his website and yelp) and he says he won't be there and he's not available until the next Monday which is Labor Day and I am unavailable due to work. I ask if I can bring it the following day instead.... a Tuesday.... and again, "I won't be there." So I have to wait yet another week in order to take my car in so that he can remove the horrible tint he applied and pay me back in full. I shouldn't be surprised but, I showed up when he asked me to and yet again.... no one there to remove my tint. FINALLY after almost two months of waiting and rescheduling and wasting my days off trying to get this done, he removed it. This was such a waste of my time and such an unpleasant experience. Based on the price and warranty I was ready to refer all my friends to him and I'm so glad no one else has gotten theirs done yet. and most of all.. IF YOU AREN'T GOING TO BE AVAILABLE DURING THE POSTED BUSINESS HOURS THEN YOU NEED TO CHANGE YOUR HOURS TO "BY APPOINTMENT ONLY"!!!!!!! YOU'RE WASTING EVERYONES TIME! What kind of business isn't available during their business hours????? I'm taking my money to an actual business that won't string me along for months. read more

Hi. I just picked up my Toyota Yaris from Star Auto Glass. Raad replace the windshield and tinted my rear glass. The value and service was the best around. I definite recommend Star Auto Glass. Thanks. read more

I got my window seals changed. He did a great job. He took care of some extra stuff too. I highly recommend this place.

They replaced my windshield - job was well done as far as I could tell. Driving away I noticed the dash had a new large gash or scrape on it. It was obvious it was a new scrape, there were flakes on the edge of the scrape line. They denied it was their responsibility. I understand there are mistakes that may happen but I expect those mistakes to be owned up to. They do not care about their clients and just want you in and out and to seal your money. read more

I was very impressed with the way they treated me. It turned out they could not help me because OEM parts were no longer available for my vehicle. But they gave me some really great advice and recommended another business, even told me the questions to ask, knowing that they would save me a lot of money. Rod was very helpful and I would recommend this place in a heartbeat. Great service! read more

WORST TINT JOB DO NOT GO HERE came here to get my windows tinted. First round there were tons of bubbles. The guy who did the tint told me they would go away in a few days but he can't guarantee that all the bubbles would go away because that's just how tinting works. He said if I wasn't happy take it back. Week later bubbles were still there and I noticed lots of gaps in the tint. Took my truck back to get retinted and the guy said I'll take it off and redo it but I can't guarantee it will be perfect. No car is perfect there are always bubbles. 1st off I've had many tint jobs on previous cars and I have never heard that or had bubbles and gaps left after tint was complete so I knew that was a lie. 2nd he asked me to go back more then once and never showed up to our appointments. Finally when I tracked him down it took 4 hours to do tint After the retint was done (which was about 7pm) there were still bubbles and crinkles in the tint that he said would smooth out. A week later nothing was smooth the bubbles were still there and it looked like shit! I came back to get tint removed and the guy (Rob or Rod) acted like he didn't know who I was and asked for my receipt which I had. With attitude he agreed to take tint and return my money. Considering this is a business and not just some guy doing side jobs I would expect a professional job. This job was as sloppy as they come. Do not come here. The worker was lazy and careless. Didn't properly clean equipment. Left glue marks and had an attitude about the shitty job he did. Go somewhere else. read more

On a Friday evening the back door window of my Prius was shattered while I was at the dog park and several things were taken from my car. After calling around Star Auto Glass gave us the best estimate by far. The service was fast and great. Cannot recommend highly enough! read more

This is the best auto shop in the world , ok Escondido. Good customer service Rod & Jon took care of my car . Next trip I'm gonna tint my windows at a great price They also do smog read more

Rod is a champ. I was there on 12/30/2020 and fixed my in-laws' windshield while we went for lunch. I had unknowingly given him the wrong year for the vehicle but despite this; he sourced the correct one in a short time! Also, his price was very reasonable! The replacement was cheaper cash than going through the insurance. Give Rod a call and he'll take care of you! read more

Not pleased with final product I went to them to get my front windshield tinted a light shade and the end product was not as expected. There are creases all through out the film, air bubbles and a little tear almost in the middle of the windshield. Don't recommend going here for window tinting. Went in a week later to get it redone and the dude wasn't there so I kept calling and all my messages were being ignored. Don't recommend getting windows tinted from this guy read more

I have a newer Kia Optima SXL turbo. Right after I got it, people started suggesting that I get my windows tinted darker to protect my white leather interior. After giving it much thought and researching it, I decided to go for it! I understand the laws about tinting front windows but decided to go with a 20% tint all the way around on my vehicle. I selected this place as I frequent the UNOCAL 76 car wash detail center where Star Auto Glass & tint is located. I went and talked to Rob the owner or manager...and he made suggestions on what tint would look best on my car. Thought about it all week and set an appointment to go in today. I am so glad that I did! My car looks amazing. Rob was a gracious host and Ray who did my windows did a beautiful job. He took his time, did not rush and the results are gorgeous. Both Rob and Ray were so friendly, they answered all of my questions and took good care of me! I even got a free car wash next door at my favorite car wash when they were finished. Immediately I noticed how much cooler my car was. If you're thinking about getting your windows tinted I would highly recommend Star auto glass & tint!. The cost was great, the work was done in a timely fashion and the results are Ah-mazing! Thank you Rob and Ray read more

I went in today to get my front two windows tinted. These guys do awesome work and they had it done in an hour or so. The quality is great and they let you pick any shade all for the same price. They charged me a flat rate no tax which made it easy to break change. I recommend this place for anyone who needs tint done. Give them a try, you will be glad you did! read more

I can not thank them enough or say enough nice things about them. My front windshield was shot out and it was the worst time of the month for it to happen.... as I am a single mom raising my daughter on my own.... anyways.. when it happened this wonderful tow truck driver told me he knew a wonderful place that would take care of me and give me a good price... he towed it there and I contacted them on Monday morning.... I dealt with Missan... whom the tow truck driver gave me his cell phone... (so I actually called him Sunday)... I explained my situation and he assured me he would take care of me and to call him on Monday morning.... I was so worried about not having my car back on Monday so I could go to work and get my daughter to school on Tuesday..... he had my car ready for me at 1pm..... he also gave me a really good price and I was treated like a family member... which in this day and age is extremely RARE! I had a tiny issue (which sometimes happens).... he told me to bring my car back in and it was taken care of immediately!! They are awesome .. they treat their customers like family and just are reallllllllly awesome!! I can't thank Missan and his team enough!!! THANK U GUYS!!!! read more

I brought my car here to get it tinted and they did an amazing job. I let the guy know what I wanted and that I have a hard time seeing at night even with my glasses on. He gave me his professional option. I went with it and it couldn't have been any better. I'm glad I went here instead of our usual place for tint! read more

I had bought my brand new car about a year ago and right away wanted tinted windows! I got them done and they looked incredible and still look amazing! A couple months ago I was in an accident and completely destroyed the passenger side of my new car. I called Rod (the owner) to see if he could fix my window + the tint again so I could at least drive my car. I then told him what had happen with the body damage of my car and he told me to bring it in! I did and he took the BEST care of my car. I got my car back about two weeks after dropping it to Rod and my car looked brand new again!! I would recommend Rod and his shops to anyone!! Such a caring person and wants to give people the best deals with the best outcome! I will definitely go to him for any issues with my car again! Thank you again Rod!!! read more

I just get a rock on my windshield and by reading the reviews on yelp i find this place quite accommodating, first I try looking for Rod since he was mention on another comment for his great service but instead his cousin RAY was the one who help me out, great service, attitude and knowledge, I was expecting at least an hour to get my car back but it only took him less than 15 minutes, not an expert but I had the same problem before and that's why I was really lowering my expectations, RAY make me have faith on excellent service again, much recommended!!! read more
