Star certified smog test station was what i needed for my car, right down the street i went. 1.5 miles from home. drove up to shop, dude was all too happy to oblige. and with no passno pay, he stood to not make a dollar.11 minutes later, my car passes smog check. 12 minutes i am already back on the way home cert in hand. dude wasknowlegeable, fast, a pleasure to speak to.

Way 😎 coo! 🤜🏾🤛🏾I pulled up, the young man was taking a prior customers car out of the shop. I walked up, he served me instantly, I waited for about, maaaaybe 25 mins or so, and I may be exaggerating that time a bit. But all I know...I was in...& I was RIGHT the f@$k back out! Got great service for sure👍🏽🥂.

Fastest in and out smog Ive ever had. Great service and did everything I had hoped!Walked in and there was no line. I filled out the remainder of the paperwork and he had the car in the shop. Once pass was confirmed he set me up with payment. Was in and out in what seems like 30 minutes at most!

Family store. Good guy working to get you out quick. I brought in two cars and we were out of there in 20 min. The garage is a bit rough around the edges, but I grew up in a tire store, so it feels like home. Far side comics on the wall...

Have taken several vehicles here over the last few years, never had an issue. If you just want a smog and dont need a 4 star waiting room bring your vehicles here.

Review №39

Fast service, short wait time, convenient location. But they are very pricy, at over three times of what I normally pay at SMG, even with the internet special discount. Not sure why such a price discrepancy for equivalent service, especially since theyre not fixing anything. You get what you pay for doesnt exactly apply here, so I think the 25 minute drive to SMG is worth the $50 saved.

First things first best place ever I would give them 100 stars if I could they are awesome also very lenient example if your car doesn’t pass no pay saves the hassle of paying for a smog you didn’t pass also if you don’t pass these guys will give you a list of parts that may help which was my case they where very helpful gave me a list of things I needed to pass and hey you bet I passed the following week I recommend everyone come here thanks Dennis for all your help sir helped me get my Honda back on the road

First off the website stated they were open until 6:00 pm. 5:30pmis when they actually close. When I arrived he said They closed 30 seconds ago, and could not help me. When I advised the website was incorrect,he stated oh yeah thats not right the website is wrong. I will not recommend this shop to anyone!!! I worked in retail for over 20 years, and I would never treat a customer that way! He should have apologized and smogged my car. Instead he has lost multiple customers, received a bad review, and I will tell everyone I know not to go here! Just because its a necessity to have, Does not mean you cannot receive GOOD customer service. Really disappointed!

Quick and easy smog testing. No pass no pay, so you dont waste money if youre not sure if you are going to pass or if you just have a small issue, like for me it was just a bad gas cap.

Went to get my 240sx smog gedanken and he denied my smog. He said he had other things to do. Rude and I dont suggest going there at all. I hope he goes out of business. Nobody like that should own a business!
