I came here for a smog check, and the whole experience was quick and hassle-free. The process is straightforward with no upselling or unnecessary waiting. I showed the online coupon and got $20 off, then paid cash for a total of about $70 for my 2012 Honda Accord. From the time I pulled in to the time I drove away, it only took about 15-20 minutes. The staff keeps things moving efficiently, and the service is exactly what you'd expect from a smog test center--fast and to the point. I arrived around 8:30 AM with only one car ahead of me, but by the time I left, four or more cars had already pulled in. The shop itself is basic and no-frills, but if you're looking for a place that gets you in and out without wasting your time, I'd definitely recommend coming early.

I recently discovered that the owner of this business is a…read morecompletey disingenuous individual. I recently tried to smog my vehicle there, they charged me full price, and when the smog computer did not read, they told me bring it back within ten days, if it passes there is no charge for the test. Seven days later my machanic returned the vehicle, it passed smog, and they charged him full price, so I of course returned to ask for my refund. I have never seen a business owner tell so so many lies to avoid the issue. Even though they offered this in writing. They actually bent over backwards to avoid honering their written guarantee. So I paid twice to smog my car in seven days, listened to the owner lie four different ways, and discovered the true character of this business. Needless to say, they have lost my business forever, and if you do business with this company, watch your wallet, and know their word is worthless. Amazing how B.S. their approach to their customer is. Poor quality individual, I hope he enjoys his I'll gotten gains.

The perfect opportunity to take advantage of a customer - but not at this repair shop! Robert told me, "You got 40% remaining on the fronts and 60% on the backs." Need I say more. These are the most honest repair guys you've ever met! As a senior it's nice to know not everyone is out to get over on you!

I've been coming here for years and trust them with all of my car needs. It's not easy to find a mechanic you can truly rely on, but Robert never tries to upsell, cheat, or charge for anything you don't need. His prices are fair (honestly some of the best around), and the work is always done right. He's the only person I go to for my cars. If you're looking for a trustworthy, no-nonsense service center, this is the place. Highly recommend.

A genuine "good morning" and "thank you" when I arrived, and another thank you when the service was done. Simple stuff, but seriously, where else do you find that anymore? They don't take reservations, so it's all walk-in. I got there around 8:35 AM with a few people already ahead of me, and I was still out by about 9:05. Pretty impressive for a walk-in smog check. The lot was clean, the office was clean, and the whole process was straightforward and painless. $60 for my 2018 Toyota 4Runner. Nice folks, quick service, fair price. I'll definitely recommend Kevin Smog to others.

You can share with them that you are not sure if the car will pass smog and they can try to do a few basic things to gauge right off the bat which we appreciated. Other places may do re-test for free if you do the initial smog check with them (but possibly higher in overall price) so keep that in mind.
