    flags make it easy to find
    Kat J.

    Very easy to find bc of the flags. Alfred was very friendly, worked fast, was polite. Gave me a chair to sit in the shade and accepted my yelp discount. He explained it would take fifteen minutes. I'm and out and ready to go. Highly recommend.

    Waiting area
    Adam D.

    Went at 3pm on a Thursday. No line. Got right in. Waiting area was clean. Alfred was quick and efficient. In and out in about 15 min total. $48 total with the coupon. Would have been 5 stars, but wasn't informed there was a $3 credit card processing fee, which is almost 7%.

    Incredible service from Alfred! Called same day and was able to get in immediately. No issues and done without hassle. Easy access from Brand Blvd. Friendly and fair!

    Alfred was great. And the service was fast and the price was reasonable. I Highly recommend getting your smog test here!

    I contacted BRAND Smog Check Center via Yelp to get a bid for my vehicle smog check. I received a quick response and headed over. Suddenly the price was $20 more than quoted. I was quoted $29.75 and when I got there it was $49.75.

    Alfred is a cool guy! He greeted us warmly and gave us a great deal. Will definitely be coming back here for my next smog.

    Alfred is star certified and awesome! Quick and helpful service. 5/5 stars, highly recommend!

    My 2004 Altima getting A+ service from Alfred.

    Fast, friendly service here at Brand Smog Check Star Certified Center. Alfred is very attentive and makes sure you get in and out very quickly. This is my second time here and both times I left very satisfied. They also have a Yelp discount coupon. Good service and a good price.

    Excellent service!

    I went in around 11:00 AM on a Saturday. There were two cars ahead of me. The gentleman that assisted me quoted a 30 min wait, which ended up being more like 20. Fast, efficient service with a fair amount of parking. Will return.

    I brought my 2018 Chevy Silverado Duramax to Glendale Lube Center for an oil change, and I'll be…read morehonest... I expected them to call the fire department just to reach the hood. My truck is on a 12-inch lift with 42-inch tires, which basically means it's less of a truck and more of a mobile observation tower. Small children look at it the way people look at monster trucks at a county fair. Most oil change places take one look at it and suddenly say things like "our lift is down" or "we don't service... aircraft carriers." Not these guys. They walked out, looked up at the truck like they were inspecting a skyscraper, nodded, and got to work like it was a completely normal Tuesday. One of the techs climbed up there like a Navy SEAL scaling a building. Next thing I know, oil change done, no drama, no weird upsells, and nobody needed a ladder from Home Depot. Truck runs great, still sits high enough to change the weather pattern in Glendale, and I'll definitely be coming back. 10/10. If your truck is ridiculously tall and slightly irresponsible like mine, these are your people.

    Do not come here for your next oil change. An employee stripped the oil pan drain plug on my…read morevehicle, and the owner, Ciro, did not take full responsibility for the damage. He refused to cover the $100 cost quoted by a local muffler shop to weld an extension onto the plug so it could be removed. The conversation ended with Ciro saying, "We are done, have a nice day." Very disappointing experience and poor customer service. UPDATE: I need to clarify several inaccuracies in the owner's response. I brought my vehicle to this shop for an oil change. During that visit, an employee attempted to remove the drain plug and informed me it had been damaged. I asked whether it could be repaired without making the issue worse, and I was told another shop could fix it and that customers are regularly referred there for this same issue. That referral came directly from the employee, not from me. The drain plug damage occurred while my vehicle was in this shop's care. Although the owner states that no service was completed during that visit, this was not my first oil change here. The damage occurred during a prior service performed by this business. As a customer, I should not be expected to inspect the underside of my vehicle after routine maintenance, nor would I fabricate this situation. This is why I requested accountability. Regarding the oil change interval, I was transparent about my driving circumstances and explained that I had added oil as needed until I could bring the vehicle in. This does not justify damage to the oil pan or remove responsibility for damage caused during service. The cost to resolve the issue was $100. My request was simply for the business to take responsibility for damage that occurred in their shop. Unfortunately, the conversation ended with a refusal to do so. I stand by my experience and my review.
