    This was in his office wall in 1-27-23

    The owner is very very friendly. He smogged my 2004 Jeep. I happened to use this place because it was close to my house and my Jeep loves to give me problems with the emissions, once I knew that the emissions system was ready I just wanted to get it done. I mentioned that there were coupons for other places to try and angle a discount and he was quick to explain that Star Stations don't do discounts but will dishonestly not disclose that until you arrive and then force you to pay more. He explained the whole process, charged me, and I was on my way.

    First time here and I will be coming back! As soon as I pulled up he greeted me. Amazing customer service. Quick and fast service! Thank you

    See all

I came here to get my registration done, yes I held out down to the wire . But it's always worth it, you get the paperwork done no problem and get your stickers all in one go. I've been coming here for years and I refuse to go anywhere else. They take all forms of payment, cash, card and checks. The value of time and effort you save is immense. The group that works here no matter when you show up are all business and they really do care for the customer.

They switched owners but they still offer the same great customer service as before. All the employees are knowledgeable. Corinna helped over the phone and with registration. The manager Sam helped as well. I was also helped by another female staff member who helped me with my smog I didn't catch her name. She was polite and had to explain to me that I had to drive 50 miles more to be qualified for the smog test. There was an extra fee for this. You have to pay for the smog and registration separately. You have to pay extra to get your registration here but to me it's worth it. You get it right away and don't have to wait for it in the mail.

    Took my car in for a P0440 minor evap leak. Was told that that it would be $150.00 because they had…read moreto smoke test the system. Fair enough. Also wanted the oil changed and had some brake noise in the rear of the car. Called the next day and was told it was ready. No check engine light, hurray! Bill was $390.00, HUH, asked what for? said that they had to replace a hose by the charcoal canister. Figured $75 for the oil change, maybe $150 for the brake repair (they only cleaned the back brakes). So with the $150 for the P0440 that made the hose about $65. Next day, check engine light again. Brought it back in. Tech looked under the car and in the engine compartment. Said that he tightened a couple of connectors and if the check engine light came back on it may need a new charcoal canister. Well it came back on the next day. I jacked up the car and took a look at the charcoal canister and hoses both under the hood and back. Nothing was replace or touched. I paid them to fix the P0440 code, not try. I didn't have the time or proper tools to fix it myself, if I did, I could of fixed it myself. I think that they just reset my code light and didn't even smoke test it, plus the left grease marks on my hood and floor carpet. They advertise as a smog and repair, but they don't.
