    Pulled right up, welcoming staff and got to work quickly.

    3 years later... I've taken my mother's, my brother's and my own car here several times and they have always welcomed me right in. One of my cars failed smog and the worker advised me on how to clear the errors and to return back the same day or next to pass the smog without being charged for the full service again. Currently here again with my mother's car and once again they welcomed us right in and the worker began work immediately. I can see he's wrapping up which means we were in and out of here in about 20 minutes total. I still highly recommend this place for the service, the speed, and the value!

    Front of business. Turn into driveway going to California Reflection and make a right.

    See all

    Great service. Staff is friendly and efficient. Pricing is the best in Livemore. I have been using this service for at least 10 years.

    A great experience, everything you want when getting your car smogged. They know what they are doing and the price is right.

    I would highly recommend taking your vehicle here to get smogged. They took my car in right away and had me out in 15 minutes. Great work!

    I had my vehicle serviced a few weeks ago at the San Leandro location and my check engine light…read morecame on. Since this location was close to where I was at, decided to pull in. I was greeted by David who was friendly and went to work on checking the levels and connecting the machine to my vehicle. He was attentive and showed the video he took of the leak. Highly recommend and thanks David!!!

    If Yelp allowed negative stars, this place would earn them…read more I waited over 1 hour because they didn't even have the correct filter for the vehicle ahead of me. Instead of informing customers or managing the delay professionally, they continued servicing cars in the other lane while I sat there with zero communication. No update. No transparency. No basic courtesy. That alone is poor management. What happened next was worse. When I asked about the delay, a staff member named Mike came over with an immediate attitude. There was no apology. No attempt to take ownership. His solution was to tell me to leave if I didn't like it. That's not customer service -- that's arrogance. Telling a paying customer to leave because they asked a reasonable question about a 30+ minute delay is unacceptable. It shows a complete lack of training, leadership, and professionalism. I had my 4-year-old son with me and chose to stay calm because I refuse to model bad behavior in front of my child. Unfortunately, the staff member had no such restraint. This business doesn't just have poor service -- it has a culture problem. When employees feel comfortable being openly disrespectful instead of resolving issues, that reflects ownership and management. There are far too many reputable shops that actually value customers to tolerate this kind of treatment. Avoid this place unless you're comfortable being ignored and then told to leave for speaking up
