They are indeed fast. I appreciated that the workers were friendly and made conversation. I'm also super thankful that they are open on Saturdays. I had called in other smog check stations and they had told me that my old car would take them an hour to do. They were able to be done with my car within 15 to 20 minutes. read more

Worst customer service. The owner here really doesn't care about customer service. I've read so many bad reviews about the customer service here that I had to update one I did a year ago after today's experience. I don't know who has the crappiest attitude. The heavy-set guy that's checking/driving in the vehicles or the guy at the register. I get it. Life sucks and you hate your job but it must not be too bad if you get to vape inside the garage while on the job. Didn't really care about their attitude last time but this is just too much. The guy at the register's attitude changed and barely grumbled have a nice day because it looks like a manager or owner showed up. Sure I was in and out fast but the attitude is just shitty. read more

I would like to say Thank uou to the workers at smog n go on orchard lane in elk grove had a smog done very fast employees very nice greeted me laughed with me very nice I Love The customer service Thank you again read more

I will never go anywhere else. There were 3 cars in front of me. I was in and out in 5 minutes. All documents forwarded directly to DMV. David at the counter provided excellent customer service. A service no one looks forward to felt so effortless. These are professionals. Don't waste your time going to anywhere else! read more

5 stars for the employee Cung at this location. He was hella accommodating when he recognized my need for someone being masked in the car. While he didn't have a mask on him, he let me park just outside the docking bay and did the smog without getting in the car and without me having to drive in the bay. Super friendly and professional. I wish I would've went here instead of the other location (that I've been going to for years. read more

Smog 'N Go - Auto Repair Near Me - Elk Grove, California

Dude at front desk needs to work on his social skills. Idc the type of establishment. A smile goes a long way. Make the short processes rememberable in a good way so people actually want to come back. Last time I'd give money to this company. Very poor hospitality. read more

I came around noon on a Wednesday for a smog check and luckily was pretty much empty. I was in and out within 10 minutes. They always have a $10 coupon online so find it and use it (they automatically applied it this time around). The service was exactly what it should be. This was a recheck for a PCV (visual inspection) and the first time I felt they didn't visual it correctly as the mechanic said it was still ok. But they did offer a free recheck that I appreciated. read more

Convenient location and fair pricing. I've definitely paid more elsewhere. The service is efficient, with a clear focus on getting you in and out quickly, which is exactly what you'd expect. Not the friendliest, but certainly not rude. You'll get what you need without hassle, making it a great option if you're in a hurry. If you happen to get extra friendly service, consider it a bonus. I'd definitely recommend it for those on the go! Funny enough, the play on words in their name, Smog N Go, is coincidental but it fits perfectly. Recommended for sure. read more

Horrible service. I took my vehicle to a different smog n go location (which is over priced) and had a surprise failure due to an electrical issue. That shop essentially told me to drive hundreds of miles to clear the system. I went back to this location after that didn't work to get some advice and have an honest conversation about the issue and the guy told me I'm out of luck and they refuse to even help me the slightest or trouble shoot. Try and find a local shop because if things don't go smooth on your test they won't take the time to explain things to you or help in the slightest. read more

Generally my wife and I upgrade our vehicles every 5-6 years; however, due to our world's current economic status (believe it or not-we're in a recession yall), we have decided to hold off on making any large purchases. Therefore, my wife's 2015 Mazda6 hit the eight year mark in which it was required to have a smog check at the time of renewing the registration. To find a local, reputable smog shop, I did a quick Yelp search and found Smog 'N Go. Thankfully, the two Yelp reviews that I read (shout out to Yelp Elites Josiah H. & Gillian A.) mentioned the $10 off coupon that is available upon checking in on Yelp (and also on the Smog 'N Go website). Prior to my visit, I called to see if an appointment was required. The employee that I spoke with informed me that it had been a slow day, and that I should bring it in right away. When I arrived, I drove my car towards the back of the establishment (per the sign at the front of the establishment), where an employee directed me to park in front of one of the garage ports. He greeted me, took my keys, and motioned to the office where I needed to check in. Within the office, an employee asked me a few intake questions and told me that they would call me when the car was ready. I then proceeded to go on a 60 minute nature walk in the surrounding residential neighborhood. When I returned from the walk, and employee greeted me and told me that the car was ready 30 minutes ago (not a problem because I needed to get my 10,000 steps in for the day). Even though taking your car to the smog shop is not the most exciting thing to do, I am happy that Smog 'N Go made it an easy task to complete...thank you Smog 'N Go team! read more

I've been going to this location for years. They are consistently fast and reliable, and reasonable, which is why I continue to come back. Service has always been smooth and efficient. read more

I just left this location and as a woman i am deeply appalled at the workers. I was simply paying to get my car smogged. They couldn't pass my Smog even though i presented proof but they denied me even with proof for my part being California approved. I left crying because i felt humiliated.. i would never recommend this place to anyone not even my worst enemy read more

My car is now officially old according to the DMV and requires smog tests (womp womp). No major complaints on the service here (no-fuss & straightforward), though I guess I stopped by at a bad time (Monday early afternoon) as the staff seemed swamped. Waited in the lobby for about 40 min with more than 5 other customers ahead of me and it looked like one car was receiving a long comprehensive service and needed the attention of multiple workers (the car was there before and after I left). Once you pull up at this location, drive to the back of the building and someone there outside will ask for your DMV paperwork. Leave your car with the person and head into the office to wait/pay. Don't forget to redeem the $10 discount (via website coupon or Yelp check-in)! read more

Worst experience of my life. They didn't pass my smog with my new California catalytic converter. They were super rude and also super dismissive. They took my 80 dollars and failed my test. I don't recommend going to this smog place at all. They treated my wife horrible as most car places do. I recommend anywhere else but here so rude and scammers. read more

Go to their website to get a coupon. Went in and done in under 15 minutes, it doesn't get better than that. Have been here many times over the past 15 years. read more

Very nice business you're in and out within a half an hour they hand to you everything that you need for the DMV to get your smog certificate very professional, great gentleman very polite definitely would go back to them again read more

Good, quick service. They are fast and efficient with your time. I've used them multiple times and find them to be consistent. If you have an older vehicle that requires being tested at a star certified station, look no further. (They can smog test cars older than 30 years!) read more

Smog 'N Go - Service bay - Auto Repair Near Me - Elk Grove, California

At smog 'N Go you simply pull your car around to the back where an attendant will direct you to pull up to the correct bay. I handed the attendant my paperwork and walked through the lobby door to the front register where I signed a form and was asked to take a seat in the lobby while my car was being smog checked. Within 15 minutes I was called up to the register where the attendant said my car passed and after payment I received a form with a "passed confirmation number". What I love about smog n go, aside from their quick service, is that they'll send your passed smog check by electronic transmission directly to the DMV. I still stuff my copy of the pass confirmation number/form with my auto registration to the DMV nonetheless. read more

The man who helped me barely spoke 2 words to me. Seems he was inconvenienced doing his job. I guess that's what I get coming to a chain business vs a small independent owned. Convenience lacks service. read more

The fastest SMOG inspection I've ever had in my life. I wasn't even there for 10 minutes. Staff had me in and out. The worker there (assuming one of the managers) is not there to smile or make any conversation. He is there to make the transaction and execute the service successfully. I went there for a smog inspection and obtain a smog certificate because I'm planning to sell my truck privately. I wanted to ask a couple of questions about pricing and the certificate itself but I didn't feel like I had a chance to talk. If you have questions, just start asking them, even though it may slightly delay the rhythm. To summarize it all. Service is quick and thorough but customer service is average. read more

Emissions tester was so helpful when we didn't pass the first time. He marked the exact hoses that we needed to replace. He explained how to replace them without damaging the area they connected to. He was very courteous and kind. read more

Quick and affordable. But the guys working there gave a lot of attitude. Seriously need to work on their customer service.

I've been a customer since 2014 and their service has always been very quick. Be prepared to show your car registration and use a Yelp check-in coupon for $10 off! Every time I pay them a visit, I'm in and out within 10 minutes. Highly recommend! read more

Staff rude i dont wanna deal with this place again he was doing his job with an attitude

Fast, efficient, & reasonably priced. Pulled up at the rear of the building, explained what i needed to have done (Star smog ), did initial paperwork, waited 10-15 minutes, paid, drove off with the required paperwork. My 2nd experience here & great both times, very consistent. Recommended! read more

I've been coming here for the past 8 years. They are very professional and efficient. I've been exceptionally satisfied with their service. They have indoor AC cooled seating if you go in the summer. read more

Needed to get a smog test for my old car. My first choice was another local shop but they were closed for the day (after 4th of July). Spotted this shop on my way home and went in. Pros: took about 30 minutes as a walk in. Cons: Every employee was not friendly or customer service oriented. Not even courteous. No greeting and no thank you. Tip: Find another business that values its customers. read more

100/10 Super fast Super efficient Straight up living up to the name Shout out to Rich for helping me get in and out and to whoever else was helping as well! Couldn't even get his name, that's how fast it was, I was in and out love to see it thanks y'all! read more

I normally visit a smaller smog check station but opted to give this place a try and it was really super quick. Pulled into the back and they had already started working on my car before I was checked in. At some of the other places I visited it was about a 30 minute wait but this took less than 10 minutes! The staff was professional and literally had me out the door much quicker than it took me to get home. Really couldn't ask for anything better and also got a 10 dollar discount from their site (will also accept a yelp check-in). read more

This Smog 'N Go location closes at 6:30 pm. The closing time is perfect for those who get off work at 5:00 pm and can just head down there after work. (Me for example). I got in around 6:00 pm and followed the sign that mentioned to go around back for quick service. That was what I did! I felt like such a newb as it was my first time ever getting a smog done...but the guys here were very helpful and patient. There was no line so the service was very quick, got in and out within 15 minutes. I also liked that there was a waiting room with a window so it doesn't feel so claustrophobic. Used the coupon upon check in and received $10 off. I will definitely be a returning customer. read more

fast and friendly service. I brought my car here before and was wary for the wait time. But they do the job right with quality work.

1st test without any warning to see if your car is smog ready and fail you as your 1st smog test. very stressful to those non mechanic average folks out there. Luckily I'm a mechanic and know exactly how to fix the issue and do the drive cycle correctly. Over priced smog shop, it was my wife who didn't understand and chose this place. Never ever again! read more

They are fast and efficient. I was out in about 15 mins. Easy process. I definitely will be back. Make sure to go on their website to screenshot the $10 off coupon and remember to bring your DMV renewal form. Thanks for the fast service guys! read more

Quickest visit I've ever had to a smog shop! I completely forgot to get my car smog'd before re-registering my vehicle, so I got a letter in the mail saying my registration was paid for and just needed a smog check. I called Smog 'N Go the morning of to see if I could stop by for my smog check, and they told me to come on down as their was availability. I pulled up and was directed to the smog diagnostic area and went inside with my paperwork. I normally check in at places so when I did, I saw I got a check-in discount. Which I showed the guy at the register, and he applied it to my check out price. I was maybe inside about 15-20 minutes, my vehicle passed inspection, my paper was signed off on and I was out the door. read more
