    As of 5/6/24, emissions testing costs a straight up $17. You need to do this once every 2 years for registration purposes but there must be other reasons to come here as they've got 4-5 lanes and there's always cars here. What I like about them is that they're efficient. There were only 3 lanes open when I was here, but they opened up a 4th because of more cars coming in. The whole process took me 15 minutes at noon time and the service was quite friendly. What is super cool about these testing places is that they have cameras that show how many cars are waiting and they use this data to provide updated wait times on their online site: http://myazcar.com/wait-times-phoenix.htm

    Most organized and convenient location. Found this location to be much closer to my house. I never noticed it before since it is hidden but easy to find and centrally located. The process was simple for $17.00. I did not wait long and the staff moved very smoothly. They are not friendly at all. Not rude just not personable. They are all about business and super serious. You won't catch one person cracking a smile but you will get a smooth transaction. No hello, no welcome, just ordered around by drill Sergeants. It was the weirdest experience of service I have ever encountered. I will use this location again since they had me in and out.

    No appointment needed. Show up get in line and wait... took me approximately 15 minutes from the time I got there to the time I was all done. FAST. Employees get it done. They charge $17 (cash or credit) they give you the report and your on your way!

    Long lines and only 2 opon for cars!

    I kept going here only because it was the closest. I have been to a couple of others and discovered it was also the slowest. The last time after sitting for 15 minutes and nobody moved I left and went to another one near the Chinese Cultural center and got in and out. Also, one time the gas cap failed and everything else passed. So I went down the street and got a new gas cap and came right back to get tested again at the same station with the same technician. The gas cap passed but this time the car did not! By the way the original gas cap did make a seal. You could hear the air rushing in when it was opened. They told me a bad cap could make the car pass emissions. Bull!!! I spoke with several mechanics and found out this is impossible. I will not ever go back to this location ever again!

    3/12/2026 Brought my…read more1999 Nissan Frontier with 175k miles here and they took good care of it. The truck runs smooth now and you can tell they know what they're doing. Price was fair and they went above and beyond to make sure everything was right. Hard to find honest shops like this. DEFINITELY RECOMMEND!

    I've been dealing with issues on my Honda for months now. We originally took it to Honda, and they…read moreclaimed it was just the spark plugs--so we replaced them. Unfortunately, the issue came back not long after. We then brought the car here based on the good reviews, hoping for a real solution. The mechanic said he inspected the car and couldn't find anything wrong except that I needed an oil change and "Honda-specific" spark plugs. He also cleared the dashboard settings, which we found extremely frustrating because that doesn't solve the issue--it just masks it temporarily. At that point, it was already done, and we couldn't reverse it. We went ahead and bought the spark plugs directly from Honda and had them replaced, even though the original ones weren't aftermarket or low quality. Surprise--same issue came back again. Whether it's "higher-end" spark plugs or not, my car continues to have the exact same problems. Honestly, I don't understand why that recommendation was made in the first place. We even spoke to friends who work at dealerships and Honda, and they confirmed that advice was completely inaccurate. The car might be running *slightly* better, but it's like comparing Pepsi to Coke--it's still the same drink. At the end of the day, nothing was truly resolved. At this point, it feels like this is just one of those issues no mechanic seems able to figure out. Disappointing experience all around. Late update, but this happened on July 10, 2025. the only reason i came here was due to the 4.5-4.7 star reviews and the fact that it was near me.
