This should be zero stars. The guy that helped was extremely confrontational. He starts off friendly then instantly gets irate when you ask any questions about why the car failed the smog. Screaming to the point he loses his breath. Telling you if you have a problem go report it to the dmv and bbb.... like sir I just asked why it failed so I can fix the issues.... He also tried to argue that my aftermarket parts were not smog compliant despite having the CARB printout stating everything is CA smog compliant. Very unprofessional service. Extremely rude. I had been going here for years and never had an issue. Whoever I delt with now are completely rude and unprofessional and degrading. Definitely dont go here. There are places that are cheaper and actually have good customer service. Sucks to see what was once a good place go so far down in the gutter with customer service. Id also like to add that the buisness' STAR certification is currently under review because of how often cars are failed at their center.. read more

I wish I could give this guy negative stars. He told me my car was illegal because of my intake. I showed him the paper work and the carb e/o number and part number as well as the website with the part and smog info showing its legal in all 50 states. He became irate that i didnt have some sticker he wanted and then proceeded to hit my car with his hand, way to hard for my liking, saying this is illegal. When I told him not to touch my car like that, he told me "what are you gonna do?" When I told him I would beat his ass if he touched my car like that again he became even more agitated and required his coworker to step in between us. This guy thinks he knows everything and says he knows everything but gets extremely confrontational if you ask any questions or try and explain anything to him. If you care about your vehicle at all I would not bring your vehicle here. his eyes are bloodshot and he is very rude. read more

Terrible! Irritated when I bring in car to get smogged as if im wasting his time. What the heck? And even if you dont pass you still get charged!! Look for businesses for free no pass and have good energy not negativity! read more

Not my cup of tea priced extremely high just like them, red eyes and all not gonna touch my precious car

Super quick and painless. I was in and out in five minutes. I called ahead, and Joe gave me a great price for my smog check.

They wouldn't even test my 93 car. Guy said he could smell the tailpipe as he's been doing this for 40 years and could tell. I took it to another station and it passed the test just fine. read more

Service was great. Price fair Business clean & location convenient for us. And owner/ operators honest.

I drove in without an appointment. Byron was super friendly and knowledgeable. I got my car checked, all good, and I was out of there in no time. I got a great coupon from their website and saved a bunch of $$$$. Will definitely come back and recommend others go there for sure. read more

Always professional and it's my go to smog place. They always give me a manager coupon for next time too.

Quick, easy, and cheap smog check here! In and out in 15 minutes. The owner, Jordan, is a pleasure- I wouldn't get my smog checked anywhere else. Make sure you check their website for a coupon, it helps bring it down to a total of $49, instead of $79. read more

Went in for a smog check. Great service, fast and friendly! Great price. I highly recommend.

Excellent! I have been here a few times and will definitely see Jordan again in 2 years. Quick and affordable.

Didn't catch this until I got home because I was pretty happy with my service. Came here with a coupon for a $29.99 smog and they charged me $39.99. It was quick and the inspector was nice so I'll consider it a tip! read more

Wanted to thank the guys at AV smog. They did the complete smog with my older 1992 Toyota pickup. A lot more involved. Jordan and company know their stuff. Very happy with the overall experience. Jordan and company know their stuff. This is the third time I've had AV Smog do my smog check. read more

They have a great promotion on their website so MAKE SURE YOU PRINT OUT THE COUPON!!!! AGAIN, PRINT HE COUPON!!! Great customer service and I was in and out in less than 20 minutes. I didn't have any issues with my vehicle but I could overhear them speaking about customer's vehicle that DID fail smog and it sounded like he (one of the mechanics) was genuinely concerned. Fair price for the work performed and if I had an issue, I'm sure I wouldve trusted them to help me fix it. Owner is a real straight up guy and you can tell he's very proud of his business. Thanks for seeing me today, another thing off my list for a busy Monday. read more

Ever since I moved back to California I've brought all of my cars here. They are always super friendly and helpful I haven't had any issues. We moved to California city and I still drive out here to get my vehicles smog. I would give them a try if you haven't already ! read more

I don't care you have been in business 40 years. Or that you own multiple shops around the area. I went in to get a simple smog test. First don't whistle at me looking at me as if I am the help or something. And then start speaking to me in Spanish. I speak English just to clarify. But then you can't even just look on the dashboard for the miles you want me to write them in and then the next customer your willing to do more for. And then my cars done and you decide to keep helping other people while my paperwork is sitting there. Just tell me it failed what I have to do and let me be on my way. Still have another 9 vehicles to get smog tested. I have better things to do. Just lost out on 23 vehicles that I have because of the lack of professionalism that I just experienced. Thank your for the whopping deal of 59.99 when everyone else in the neighborhood is charging the same. Learned experience never coming back. Thanks. Furthermore, I want to be honest didn't pass the smog because new battery installed so I have to drive 100 miles to clear codes and then bring it back. So I was only charged 49.99 right now and will be charged the rest once I come back. Yeah! read more

Great customer service and Joe is the mam fixed the problem and smoged it everything withing couple of hrs great prices tooo highly recommended read more

Took my car for DMV required smog. Usually smog places are pass or don't pay. Mind you my check engine light was not on and I did not think my car had anything wrong with it. They charged me and I thought everything would be ok. When I finish paying he tells me your car has a code and pits not passing drive it around and come back.. I do that and come back and he tells us.. you can't just expect the car to fix itself, fix it and come back but next time it'll be another $40 on top of the $70 you already paid. Needless to say never going back again. read more

I got my service done on 6/17/20. I called to get estimate coming from Ridgecrest, CA which is 1.5 hrs away. I got a quote over the phone for $29.99 plus $10 for the papers. It was done quick approximately 10-15 minutes. I was charged $79.99. This is very poor business practices and unethical. Be careful. Go elsewhere read more

do not use this smog shop con men con men con men. they should be reported as they tell you to drive around at 40-45 mph and then you come back and still don't pass. then tell you to come back and pay all over again. it's sad that people like this are in business as they should be reported to bbb as a scam! tried for no stars but you have to choose one.....people are dishonest but karma is real read more

Took my Neon in for an emissions repair after first paying and failing a smog test with a competitor. Found three components needing repair. Replaced the parts then completed a PASS smog exam! They did a great job and took 2-1/2 hours for the total fix. Top notch and don't let the shop fool you! read more

I called and got a price of $49.99. When I got there I told him my check engine light is on and I just had it jump started. I asked Abe if I should do the smog now. He said no problem. When it was done. I go in the office he tells me $79.99 normally, for you $59.99. Then I told him I called and you said $49.99. Then he agreed. Then I didn't pass. Of course not because my check engine light is on. Then he said go get it fixed and come back and I will only charge you $39.99. DO NOT COME HERE. They claim they are Christians. Just LIARS. Pass or Don't Pay. What a joke!!!! Stay Away. read more

AV Smog - Smog Check Stations Near Me - Lancaster, California

1st time I went, they charge me $29.99 and they said it was NOT READY meaning failed. They advised me to drive 30 to 40 miles more and do the retest. I went back and they said it was passed and need to pay additional $39.99. These amount was not disclosed to me before at first time. They love to OVER PRICE , NOT HONEST/SINCERE, NOT TELLING ALL THE EXPENSES AT FIRST. Today, I read that they're doing these DISHONEST ACT to their past customers too. They love to fool customers when it comes to charges, but in reality their charges is far less the amount I paid. They love to argue too. I hope that these business shd be reported to proper government department for them to learn not to fool customer like me who is somewhat poor. read more

Just took my daughter's car there and the guy is a crook. Made us drive our car over 30 miles just so he can get a better read. For the retest he charged an additional fee plus the cost of the smog test. Don't go there unless you want to get ripped off read more

I am a Auto Dealer therefore I require a lot of smogs for my vehicles. I called 1 day for a price for a smog and was quoted $45. Because he was close and my normal smog person was not open I figured I would give him a try. I did get quick service and was out of there. I took another car to him a few days later without calling to have another car smogged and it did not pass on visual, burned out check engine light. I go to pay him for his service and he said it will be $49.95 at with time he I informed him that he had just charged he $45 for a smog a couple days earlier, at with time he tells me that he had gave me a special price because they was having a special on phone call first prices. I fitted the problem with the bulb and figured it would be best if I call first for a retest, to see what the price would be, at which time he said it would be half price, $29.95 for test and $10 for certificate for a grand total of $39.95. I try and be fair with everybody I do business with but this is a business I will not be referring people to. There is a lot of other honest smog shops in the AV then this place that is charging less for smogs. Please also note that he had tried to charge me $80 to change the bulb that took me 15 minutes to replace. read more
