Mike's Smog Check was quick, efficient, reasonably priced, with excellent staff. My experience there was really pleasant, including a wonderful interaction with the owner and his daughter. I'm so pleased to support a local, family business. If you need a smog check, look no further. read more

This is the place to get your smog for your vehicle! Before finding this 5 Star business, I was turned away by several Indio Smog shops, everyone was at lunch. Strange since this was after 3 pm. Anyway, I lucked out and found this professional spot! Family owned and run. Quick and efficient! Clean! Nice! Offered me a water! Actually happy to have the business! Just go, You will see what I mean! read more

Mike's Smog Check - The BEST place to get your Smog!! - Smog Check Stations Near Me - Indio, California

I need a smog check ASAP and another shop recommended Mike's. Quick and competent. Electronic submission directly to the DMV

I highly recommend Mikes shop! I called to check prices and to schedule an appointment, I was so happy to hear I didn't need one especially having a baby with me. I got my jeeps smog that same day in less than 15 min. They were very nice and I liked how clean their place was, and the price was so affordable. Thank you for your service! read more

No nonsense smog check. Very fair price. In and out. Sweet couple are the owners. Quite refreshing these days

Came to Mike's Smog Check based on excellent Yelp reviews. Their 5-star rating is correct. I called the day before to make an appointment; receptionist picked up my phone immediately and sounded super friendly; she asked for my car year and model, which made in 2018 and is small compact car. Next day, I drove to this place; kinda sketchy area with a bunch of junkyards, tow yards, and homeless people (I wouldn't want to be here at night). I spent total $62.00 for a SMOG check; this place is STAR certified, but I didn't need it to be STAR, so I assume a STAR smog check would've costed me more. They accept credit card and cash. Their land needs to be repaved because you drive on light gravel and dirt. So when I walked into their tiny building (like 300 square foot), there are two 2-person couches; there was already one person ahead of me. I saw a picture on wall with a picture of 'Highest Rated on Yelp" for SMOG check, lol. Receptionist wasn't there because she also moves the cars: I waited 3 minutes for receptionist to come in. I handed her my DMV paper that stated that I needed a SMOG check in order to renew my car registration. Receptionist gave me a paper to fill out that showed the total cost and estimated a 15 minute wait time. After 15 minutes, receptionist said I passed, and then I paid my $62 and was out of there. She said that the SMOG results are electronically sent to DMV; there is a bar code on you DMV car registration that allows the SMOG shop to electronically upload info to DMV. My car driver seat was left in the same position (which I loved, because my dealership always adjusts my seat after routine maintenance). I recommend this place to anyone: quick and easy. read more

Customer service is by far the best around for a locally owned business. I called the first location on Indio Blvd, they couldn't get in until the afternoon. The kind voice on the line said I could go to the new location by Indio High School. I was there maybe 10 minutes, not only was the waiting area impeccably clean and cold, Ferris Bueller's Day Off was playing on the TV. What more do you need to know? Mike came out and introduced himself, and told me I was ready to go. This is my new go-to smog place from now on. read more

Was acknowledged as soon as I walked in. VERY friendly service and fast too. Highly recommend this place. read more

I was there for a star smog check, the lady that greeted me was very nice, very informed and easy to communicate with. I was in and out of there in 15 minutes. What a pleasure to do business with. read more

I recently moved back to CA and had to go begin to go through all of the wonderful hoops required by CA. I started at Mike's Smog Check. What a great way to begin the dreaded new CA car registration process. Super friendly and super prompt. I was in and out within 15 minutes and given detailed explanation of how everything works and what to expect next. I was even given a cold bottle of water (on a hot day) to take with me. Thank you! I 100% recommend this establishment everyone! Customer service at it's finest and a place you wouldn't expect it. Kudos! read more

I'd hate to admit it, but I'm not one to really leave reviews.. But places like this really deserve the recognition! I had another place fail me twice over a visual imperfection when everything else passed. It was obvious everything was stock but he suggested I buy a new cat (over $2k). Here at Mike's they confirmed everything was stock and passed emissions and boom. I'll be bringing all my cars here and referring everyone I know. Honest, hard working people here. read more

I needed to get a smog on my 1995 F350 and Mikes was open, polite and no BS. They even gave me a bottle of water. Highly recommend them. And their price was great. This should be your first stop. Many other shops were either closed or had broken equipment or wouldn't do an older than 2000. read more

This is the only place I will go to now! It's a family owned business owned by the nicest people, and they are always fast, efficient, and professional. The very best! I enjoyed their comfortable waiting area and was offered a bottled water while I waited a whopping 12 minutes for my service to be completed. :) And again....SUPER nice people. read more

Mikes Smog Check is the best place to go to in the Coachella Valley. I had tried to go a couple of the smog shops in Coachella prior to making the longer drive to Indio. Unfortunately all the places I went were rude and I ended up leaving right away! If there's one thing I hate it's bad customer service. Anyway, I had gone to Coachella Smog Shop prior and actually did the smog check but my car didn't pass. All they told me to do was to drive 200 miles or do 15 start up's but treated me like an idiot as if I didn't know what a start up was. I called Mikes Smog Check & it was $10 more than the shops in Coachella , but again Coachella Shops are RUDE and I could tell Mike's was not. I came in frustrated because I was worried that my car wouldn't pass and the registration was due soon. Fortunately , Adrian really helped me out & told me that I had a permanent code on my car and what I had to was drive 200 miles and have 15 start ups without the check engine light turning on. He also let me know to head over to the DMV as soon as possible and ask for an extension and to bring the car back. So that's exactly what I did & my car passed today ! Also, very very thankful to the lady inside , she is very sweet & friendly. I will definitely come back & recommend Mike's Smog Shop to anyone looking for a place to take their car! This is definitely GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE. read more

Called this morning to make an appointment to get my little red car smogged. Friendly voice on the other side of the phone, said they weren't busy at the moment, so I scooted over to their place. Easy to find, lots a parking. Greeted at my car by the tech, handed him my reg. and off to the office I went. Good service, nice atmosphere. The tech even aired my tires. In and out in 20 minutes. Definitely recommend this smog test center. read more
