I came in for a smog check due to my registration renewal. These guys are top notch! They greeted me as soon as I walked in, asked me for the registration/renewal and went to work. My truck passed smog with flying colors and I was out within 20-25 minutes. Price was great as well and from what I recall certificate and smog in total was under $60. 5 stars read more

This place is conveniently located, not a long wait time and staff if very pleasant. Would come here again- oh wait I did :) smogged here 2 years ago too. A+ read more

These young men have really impressed me with their customer service. I've been bringing my fleet cars here for just over a year now and they give prompt and attentive service. My most recent visit had a minor complication which needed to be resolved before services and they advised on the next steps needed before we can fulfill the smog test. The matter was resolved and services rendered. They have air conditioned waiting area and a big TV as well as some snacks and soft drinks available for sale. I am very satisfied and fully recommend MADISON SMOG. read more

With everything in our economy on the rise this place has not raised their prices at all in years.. amazing respectful service and always looking out for your best interest. I've been smogging all of my vehicles here for years.. In the past the only downside to this place was the awful potholes in the parking lot, however the whole parking lot has been repaved and it is no longer an issue.. I highly recommend smogging all your vehicles here as well... read more

Tbh I don't really write many reviews, but the prices were better than wherever else I've been and met a cool guy named Ivan super respectful and efficient. No hassle, Easy, got exactly what I was looking for. read more

Quick, easy and a great price. The young man working was great. Thanks so much for making this process simple! Will recommend!

The employee was very nice and knew what he was doing. He was also very knowledgeable on what was going on with my truck when it didn't past the first time. read more

Very professional, great price! I called around and got quotes of $70 for a smog test and certificate. Madison Smog quoted me $48 out the door. The lobby is very clean and comfy. I would def recommend them read more

I've been here a few times with my car, my moms car, and my brothers car. Every time I have come to this shop the tenant makes it so easy and convenient for me. This specific time I made it into this visit, he made it so easy and understanding. I recommend this business. They do a very thorough check!! The new guy is awesome! He does his work in such a steady pace that we went in and went out in no time! read more

Took my car in without appt but was happy to hear they could help me out. I was out of there in 30 mins. I even enjoyed the waiting time. The staff is very friendly. The seating area is comfy, clean and they have snacks available. read more

My second time going to get a smog here and I will definitely be back. Both guys I spoke to were professional and nice. Place is small but they get cars in and out super fast. Both times I was there less than 15 minutes. The price is reasonable compared to other places. I hate having to get a smog, but at least these guys made it pretty painless. Thank you Ivan! read more

Tom is great. I bring all Of My cars here for their smog test. He is pleasant, courteous and professional. He knows his trade well and has even given me mechanical suggestions for repair if any parts he has notice are reaching the end of their life expectancy! His services are always speedy and done correctly. These are all hard characteristics to find in people these days so it is always a refreshing experience when doing business at Madison Smog Check! read more

Really good service compared to others in the area and reasonable price. Customer service was pretty good.

Nice owner who really care about his customers. Reasonable price and nice work. Support this family business please by having smog check done with it. You will be satisfied for sure. Highly recommend read more

AVOID THIS PLACE!!! I bought a used foreign vehicle and brought it here, the guy, the only one who works there fails my smog inspection based on visual inspection of intake hose. He said there was glue on it and he could not pass it until it was fixed or replaced. I've used him before with no problem except this time. After spending over 600.00 on replacing brand new dealer part with a certified smog mechanic I noticed that the part comes with factory adhesive. I took it back to Madison Smog for a recheck. This guy had the gall to tell me that he believed that it was not fixed yet. I pulled out the paperwork and showed it to him. He knew I was pissed and pass the smog inspection under protest. He said car manufacturers don't use adhesives. I told him that he doesn't know anything about manufacturing and that I would never use them ever again. read more

Even though it's a smaller shop, the prompt and courteous service was second-to-none. The tech explained everything he was doing along the way and it made getting a smog check a bit less nerve-wracking! Will bring all my vehicles here and recommend to anyone who asks. read more

No good I highly recommend NOT going there at all the guy ivan doesn't not knows what he is doing and struggling for business to come just got my car fixed at the dealership and my car failed the smog test read more

Returned to this smog check location after a couple years and the place hasn't changed, the office remains tiny and the parking lot still needs paving. Anyway, it looks like Mr. Snyder, the technician, is now fully in charge. He's approachable and straightforward. He mentioned the promotional price found online does not include free re-test. The test was over in less than 30 minutes. In and out, quick and easy. read more

This guy purposely failed my vehicle just to get me out of his shop. Said my check engine light came on - charged me $40. Check engine light turned off 5 min after leaving and hasn't turned back on. He had a small child running around his shop while the boy was yelling at him saying, how horrible he was. The guy kept yelling at the kid to get back inside. Extremely unprofessional !!! I even called him about it later. He could care less. This guy is a piece of garage. Should have called CPS on this guy. read more

Tom is fantastic! A little tucked away SMOG shop. Was in and out very fast. Quality service and a friendly smile! My new go to place. Will be coming back and telling everyone that I know!!! read more

Giving this place the 5-stars for service, not necessarily for the location. Madison Smog Check made this the easiest smog check ever. Let me know my options and what to expect. I passed the inspection which also made my day. Do drive in slowly and watch out for the rough entry. I'd come back if needed. read more

I was told I couldn't pass smog because my distributor timing was off and that I would need to have it adjusted. Went to another shop and was told it was fine and got a passing smog check from them. He charges $26 for a recheck, and I think he hopes that you will get a pointless adjustment so you can come back and give him a little more money. The shop that I took it to actually told me that they get a lot of his failed customers, and it's usually over really petty things. I went here on a Sunday because they were one of the only shops open. I should've waited. read more

I don't recall if he was the manager or the owner, but he is the very reason why I would come back and I HIGHLY recommend this place. Long story short, I came into the shop to get my car smogged even though I knew it wouldn't pass. I needed the information for the government program and I discussed this with the, Ill just call him the owner. He gave me great information and cautioned me even at the expense of him losing out on business. He was looking out for MY best interest. Integrity is so hard to come across in the business world and especially in mechanics, but this mom and pop shop is the foundation of the real American ideology. Lies make profit, but Honesty makes family and family is loyal. Please try him out and spread the word. Lets make America, like ourselves, spectacular. read more

They're hard to find (gravel parking lot right after Roseville Road splits off) but they're totally worth it. Amar, the guy who runs the place, knows cars inside and out and isn't the typical smog shop slob who's gonna rip you off. I HATE getting my car smogged, even if it is every two years, but I was in and out of here in less than half an hour with no problems at all. There's a million smog joints around and after trying a few and always saying I need a new one, this is the one I'll keep going to. read more

This place is horrible! Took my 2014 Silverado in for a smog. This guy failed me because the codes had just been reset. They had been reset because we unhooked the battery to replace the tranny. We thought we had drove it far enough but apparently not. In all of my experience the smog person usually tells us hey you have to drive it further for me to smog it. But this guy would rather get the money and fail me. He also failed the visual inspection because ONE screw was missing off of the air filter cover. Do not go here unless you want to waste your money! read more

Don't take your diesel vehicle here. Inspecting a diesel takes soecial knowledge, which the staff here do not have. The young man who inspected my truck failed it because he believed the pipes going to the turbo were a modification. Both the shop that installed them and the manufacturer said they are an OEM replacement that does not need a BAR sticker - but he would not be persuaded. I went to another shop that knows diesels, they passed it. read more

Exactly what you'd expect: drive-up smog check station, located on the other side of Madison Ave & open on weekends... Was able to drive up and get my car checked out with not even a 10 minute wait. Friendly guy doing the check, painless process, and thankfully my car passed (yay!!) My only gripe is the bombed-out parking lot that you have to drive through to get to this blink-and-you'll-miss-it spot. Pretty sure my low-profile tires didn't like driving over busted concrete and pavement, but they seemed to survive. :) read more

THEY ALWAYS ROCK IT Tom the Technician and Efrain the owner always do a great job for us when we send our cars there for smog checks. We've never had an issue, and they are always very helpful. And very knowledgeable too. Keep it up boys. Smog me! read more

This place is a dump. I just bought 2015 Honda accord which was sitting for a month in seller house and i drove a couple miles and drove to smog shop and I found this place on google for smog check. Then i sent my wife there the guy was there he didn't check before he started to the smog the car if it was ready or not for smog (monitors had not run) and so obviously its failed because its wasn't ready. Then he charged me for it. when my wife asked him why he didn't tell her it was not ready yet. He gave her the very funny answer of ...."I don't have permission to tell the customer whether the car is ready not." in short, I do not recommended this place for smog. read more

I've been coming here for years. Tom is always very informative and helpful. It is a little run down but I don't come for the scenery. I prefer honesty and integrity over how the place looks. Was very fast and helpful. I will continue to come here for my smog needs and refer anyone who needs a smog. read more

He was working on another car until I came in and he stopped to smog my car. It to less then a half hour. When he was done he gave me a thumbs up read more
