I'd been dealing with a check engine light/misfire code for 2+ years on my Nissan. Despite multiple…read moretrips to my usual shop, they couldn't solve it. With my registration deadline looming, I panicked when I realized I needed a smog test & couldn't pass without clearing the code. I decided to try someone new and reached out to Adam at Reliable Smog Test/Auto Center. Adam squeezed me in despite being incredibly busy. He took the time to do a thorough diagnosis and successfully identified the issue, fixed it, and handled the smog test! Adam was very knowledgeable & took the time to explain things to me. He's friendly, honest, and clearly skilled & passionate about his work. A great overall experience. I can't recommend him highly enough!

I had my oil changed here and the experience was terrible…read more After the service, the oil maintenance light was not reset and no service sticker was placed on the windshield. When I checked the dipstick myself, the oil level appeared low and the oil was dark with a burnt smell. I returned the next day to speak with the manager (Luis), who insisted the oil had been changed and showed me what he said was a new oil filter installed by the technician (Torres). However, when I expressed concerns about the oil condition and asked if they could redo the service for customer peace of mind, I was told I would have to pay again. The original manager on duty during the service was Mike. What concerns me most is not just the oil itself, but the lack of transparency and unwillingness to address a customer's concern in a professional way. When basic steps like resetting the maintenance system are missed and the oil appears questionable, it's reasonable for a customer to ask for reassurance. Unfortunately, I did not leave feeling confident that the service was handled properly. Luis refused to redo the service free of charge and at this point I realized that it wasn't doing anything by going back and forth. I would recommend customers going somewhere else.
