Furgerson's Garage has the understanding of Foreign cars that no other local garage has. They are honest, fair in their pricing, and go out of their way to give customers clear information on what needs service and how long it will take. Mechanics know their stuff inside and out. They bring a positive attitude to their interaction with clients, and make you glad you came here. Furgersons delivers quality work at it's best. Five stars rating, well-deserved.

89 Land Cruiser TL:DR They have a $388 diagnostic fee that doesn’t go towards repairs. Don’t drop your car off here for smog issues. All I can do is base my review off of my experience with customer service and fees since I didn’t accept their estimate. When I first failed smog I was suggested to their shop. I went and they said they didn’t have space and to come back next week and I did. Upon dropping my car off, this time customer service decided to mention there is a $388 diagnostic fee for my vehicle. They also informed me that the fee was separate and wouldn’t go towards the cost of repairs. I should have walked away then but I was in a pinch because of time and work so I said ok. If this was mentioned to me when I first came by the week before, I would have made other arrangements. Today I called because I had a missed call. They informed me it would be $1300 and change for O2 sensors and a thermostat… they thankfully informed me that they needed this installed before they could proceed with other reasons it isn’t going to pass smog. Sounds like the classic pipe dream. I said no, came and picked up my car and am now figuring it out. When I gave my buddy- a person works on 80s Landcruiser’s for a living the quote, he laughed at me and called me a sucker… if he was closer he’d be the mechanic. Oh well such is life. I am not giving a one / two star review because that would be reserved for if they did bad work. I fairly can’t speak on that and others seem happy. Maybe I just had a terrible / misguided experience. It’s unfortunate but it happens.

Normally taking my car to the mechanic is not a pleasant experience, but not gonna lie this was a quick in and out. Everyone at Furgersons was so helpful. My car needed a smog check and they were able to squeeze me in even though I did not have an appointment. The guy in the front was able to explain what would be done and said he would do his best to get my car in as soon as possible. I was expecting to be there for the rest of the afternoon while I waited for my car to be squeezed in but surprisingly they were able to do it all and I was driving away in about an hour. I definitely recommend this shop, everyone is really nice and make you feel welcome while taking care of your car.

I received excellent service during my visit, with a remarkably quick turnaround time. Despite it being a busy day, Ferguson’s handled my smog check efficiently and without any issues. I appreciate their professionalism and would be happy to recommend their services to others.

This is the best spot! Most trustworthy, honest & professional car repair experience I’ve had, with great communication. Troy and the team fixed my issue for an extremely reasonably cost, & explained what needed to be done in a way I could understand. The repairs were done quickly, while accommodating my schedule. Staff here turned what is often a stressful experience into a pleasure!

I took my Mercedes CLS55 into Furgerson's Garage today for smog testing and the experience could not have been better. Troy set up my appointment and ushered my car through the process. I was pleased how quickly the turn-around was found the staff very helpful. Thank you Troy and Furgerson's!

I have been using Fergerson's Garage for years. They always take good care of my 2003 Tahoe. All the staff is friendly, and any repairs are always explained fully so even a non-car person like me can understand. I highly recommend them.

We take all our cars to Furgerson's for smog checks. Staff is super friendly and it is easy to make an appointment. Definitely call ahead so you don't have to wait. They don't try to oversell you on other service. Anything they have recommended has been confirmed by my regular mechanic.

I enjoy working with Troy at Furgeson’s Garage in Encinitas. I recently took my high mileage Infiniti in for a long list of overdue repairs prior to a big road trip. Road trip now completed and the SUV hasn’t driven better in years. Thank you Troy and Furgeson’s Garage!

I recently had a fantastic experience at Ferguson Automotive, and I can't help but commend the team, particularly Evan, for their outstanding service. When my vehicle encountered issues, Evan and the team efficiently diagnosed and explained the necessary repairs with clarity and precision. Their attention to detail and commitment to delivering swift, high-quality service truly stood out.

I can can always expect friendly and professional mechanical service at Ferguson's garage, Plus I have AAA which came in handy since Ferguson's garage is Triple AAA approved. Customer safety is a Ferguson's garage priority.

l have been taking my car to Furgerson's ever since I moved to Carlsbad in the fall of 2019. I cannot recommend them highly enough. I live in a retirement community and Furgerson's was recommended to me by several of the residents because of their excellent service and willingness to drive you back and forth while your car is being serviced. For those of us senior citizens who may not have family in the area, the drive back and forth is really important. All personnel are knowledgeable and friendly and their rates are very reasonable. Try them! You'll never use anyone else again.

These guys are awesome. I had an old 4Runner that was having a bunch of issues. Not only did they give me a super honest and thorough diagnosis of what was going on but they were able to source a lot of parts for me and get it all squared away. Shout out to Evan too for being an absolute legend and calling me on the phone with updates as the repairs progressed, his knowledge and experience was tremendous. It runs like a champ now and I’d definitely recommend this place.

This place is A+ start to finish. Every person on their staff is communicative and friendly. The managers are super transparent and crazy fast with estimates too. I was in a tough situation when I arrived at Furgerson's and had no clue how to handle it, but throughout the entire process I felt cared for and comfortable asking questions. Thank you especially to Brian, who has gone above and beyond in our time working together. I'll truly never recommend another mechanic (or visit one myself) after this experience.

My experience with this shop dealing with Evan went surprisingly smooth. As a first time customer I never felt like I was getting pushed to get the work that my vehicle required to stay on the road. Although I declined services today and will be purchasing a new vehicle I will definitely be back. Thanks Evan!
