Test Only Smog Center

I bring all 4 cars I have to this place. It’s close by to where I live and also has plenty of things to do while you wait. There’s a Starbucks and Ten Ren’s nearby with wifi and drinks. If you’re hungry, there’s Mexican food, Subway, everything you want to keep busy for the hour.
Even when there are a few people in the office or in line I never had to wait longer than an hour. The main person who works there is so hardworking and never stops. He doesn’t take breaks in between cars since I see him take one car in and work on the other car while waiting and so on. Prices are totally fair and I can’t find any reason not to recommend this stellar place to all my friends and Unilocalers. Seriously as good as it gets!

I like taking my car here. They have the latest equipment to process new car faster. You don’t have to stick a tube in the exhaust and run the car. That takes more time. His prices are very reasonable.

Such a nice owner that takes care of the customers quickly. Never had to wait long and always dependent and efficient. Great service and pricing.

Had a good experience. Good customer service. There is a wait but he goes through each car pretty quick.

Quick, friendly, and professional service. I had a good experience. Definitely going back when I get another smog check.

Having read some of the reviews, I was a bit skeptical. What I found was this. The owner is friendly. He seems to have some difficulty with English, and I would blame all of the comments about his demeanor on that. Speak his language and I’m betting you will find him enjoyable! The service cost a bit more than I think it might somewhere else, but you know in advance and can make your choice. The owner is quick, anything but lazy, and he gets your car in and out as fast as our laws allow. Regarding sending the results electronically, I’m not sure why someone reported what they did. The results are delivered electronically, and the customer simply receives a receipt. The less than positives are minor. It is not an inviting environment, but considering how brief a time you are there, it shouldn’t be an issue that you don’t have polished rock floors, designer interiors, vending machines and a children’s play area. Beware, again, as mentioned elsewhere. The entrance is on the back side of the building, not on the front where all of the others on that strip open. Signs are up to redirect you to the back, but easier to go there first. Hope this helps.

When I first arrived I pulled up into the wrong side and had to drive around, wouldn’t have been too bad but the street was being worked on. I walked in no appointment and the guy helped me right away, not very good at communicating with me, so when I was trying to ask questions he did not really respond. Test was quick and I passed first try. Price was good, $ 49.72 for the test and $ 8. 28 for the certificate, total of $ 58 even. In and out in less than 20 minutes, but mostly because I was the only car there when I arrived. Overall the guy, Chien, was nice but not very good at talking. I would probably come again next time, very convenient.

Quick and great service, I had the RAV4 there and the CLK500 there, being treated fairly =]

Took my S2000 there, didn’t wait long at all. Great experience.

Had my smog check done here. This guy is great and gives great customer service. I went on a Wednesday around 9am. There were about 3 people before me. I had to go back home to get my NOTIFICATION FROM DMV. BRING IT BECAUSE I FORGOT IT. Just a reminder! Wasn’t a hassle just a 5 min drive. I probably waited for about 20 – 30 mins. He even accepts American Express. (Automatic 5 stars) haha. Great place.

Lives up to the hype! In and out in 20 minutes… Actually I think I was there for only 10. Went around 10:30am.
I highly recommend.

All they do and was in and out 30 min top. Not helpful, friendly, or informative. When asked if they electronically send the report to DMV and normal, guy says, «You bring there». «Don’t you send it?» «You give to them». «So you don’t do it anymore?» They take care. ”
Asian on Asian crime. Like the government, you don’t have much choice so use them or not, they don’t care.

Fast and efficient. I was the third person there and got out in about a hour. The owner is very friendly and courteous.

I was the second car in line this morning to get a smog check. I was in and out within 15 minutes. It was my 4^th or 5^th time at the place getting a smog done.
The owner was SUPER friendly and I would recommend this place to anyone who needs a smog check.
I have been to this place on a Saturday before. It was very busy and waited a good long while. It’s still worth it. I know now to not wait and go during the week!

Fast on a Thursday afternoon. Waited less than 20 min in the small waiting area inside. There is also a few seats outside. Passed. Less than $ 50. Will definitely be back for smog check needs. Tip: there’s a sign towards the back driveway where you should enter. If you go in from the closer driveway from Valley, you’ll need to drive out to come back around the other side.

I bought a used car and needed a smog for transfer of title ownership. This place is inexpensive and provides fast service! what more could you possibly want from a smog place! Way cheaper then getting it done at gas stations and no wait time! Thanks

I’ve been coming here for a few years to do smog checks on my family’s cars. I’ve always seen the same guy, presumably the owner, and he is fast and efficient. You don’t need an appointment but I suggest calling ahead to check if he is busy. Weekdays are less busy and in the afternoon you can usually be done in 15 – 20 minutes.
He accepts credit cards and doesn’t charge a fee. My most recent visit was $ 48.00 for a 2005 Scion. He offers a free retest which is typical of these places and I’ve taken advantage of this without a problem.
As for downsides, while the price is competitive you might be able to save a few bucks elsewhere. Also, the place is pretty dirty even for an automotive shop. Luckily there are chairs outside so you don’t normally need to go inside except to pay.

Belive it or not, I was in and out in 10 minutes during a Thursday lunch time and paid $ 48 for my 06 Toyota Matrix!

I came here on a Saturday afternoon,
Just like all other reviews say, very very efficient~ from in and out the smog check center, it took me 18 min only~WOW. BTW, I paid $ 48 for my 2006 van, good price!

Good service, told me 20 min but waited around 40. Still good, looked like he was the only one there so I understand. Fortune cookies and candies looked a little bit unsanitary and place can use a dusting but hey, it’s a car shop :)
Friendly guy, charged me $ 58

People, the time it takes to get in and out depends on how many cars are ahead of you, time of day, etc. It’s best to call ahead and see how long the wait is and if it’s not satisfactory to you, go when it isn’t so busy!
I called first and the guy said there was only 1 car there. Quickly got there, done in 15 min. Painless and good to go. They sent the cert electronically. I’ll definitely go there again.
