I am glad I discovered this place! Forty( $40) for the smog plus the cert is a good price! The waiting area was nice and clean. The gal who assisted me was nice. It only too 25 minutes for me to wait for the smog test to finish. Bring cash to pay with the printed coupon! No credit card accepted for this. read more

Smog Tech 3 - It's nice to see patriotism displayed in the waiiting area. - Smog Check Stations Near Me - Galt, California

I've been coming to this place for 10 years. I've brought every single vehicle I owned here and today I forgot to put on my air filter cover and they charge me $40 for the failed test and then they told me to come back and I had to pay another $40. I do understand it is my fault for not putting that on there but for being a dedicated customer for 10 years and not only that but my whole family comes here. I guess customer service doesn't exist anymore. read more

Walk in only, there was only 1 customer before me so they took my car in pretty quickly. I was able to walk to the post office to drop something off and come back, about 5 min later my car was done! I'm not sure how much other smog places charged but I'm happy I was able to use their online coupon to get a $40 smog done and my errand was done within 20 minutes. Thank you Smog Tech 3 read more

Smog Tech 3 - Smog Check Stations Near Me - Galt, California

I went to have my vehicle smoked I let them know I had a copy of their coupon . They advised me I had to give them a printer coupon . I didn't have a copy machine because I was from out of town so I had to go have a copy made before I could get the discount 45 minutes later I brought my vehicle back and got the smog . I think customer service could be better . read more

I would have given this smog shop 5 stars because they did a good job BUT I'm very unhappy with the fact they did not honor my $40 coupon the lady at the front desk said because they get in trouble changing the amount since coupon was presented after service. You know as a business you would think you would want to keep your customers by making them happy. I'm on a budget and was prepared to only pay the $40 but ended up paying $78 which was my gas money until next paycheck. For that $78 price I could have chosen any other shop. They might not give a shit losing me as a customer but if they keep doing this to customers they will slowly keep losing them. im just upset at the fact that they couldn't honor my coupon as a one time courtesy. it has nothing to do with the car service given there it just the clerical side that's crappy... read more

very simple and much less costly than the smog company across the street. their service was fast and I highly recommend them read more

So quick & easy! Kind customer service and as a bonus if you bring in their coupon printed it's a great discount!

I was looking for a place in town to have a smog check done on my Toyota tundra. I found smog tech 3 to do the smog check for my tundra truck. I came in and was immediately served by the front desk person. They had me fill out paperwork and gave the lady my registration paperwork. The wait time was not that long. The value was great because I had used a coupon that I had found on their website. Great place to go get a smog check at a fair price. read more

Had to come get a smog check for my car registration. Found this place on Yelp and it came with a coupon. Score!!! Just walked in one Friday with my husband 30 mins later and the check was complete. Car passed smog, value of the smog check was better than other places and the staff was super friendly. Can't beat good quality service with at a good value price. read more

They are so professional and courteous!! They are fast and efficient with their time and yours. Very reliable!!

we didnt print the coupon as per the coupon instructions but the nice lady at the counter honored our coupon anyway. Very fast efficient service! read more

I have been smogging my 4 vehicles here for years. The older lady usually is in the front office and very sweet. This visit was a younger lady who was not at all welcoming. They have a coupon on their facebook page that I showed the employee, she refused it because it was not printed. They have boxes of these exact coupons behind the counter they give you a new one every time you smog. She could have honored it but chose to loose a longtime customer because of this. She said she could give me $20 off but not the coupon? Pretty shady. I had a physical coupon in my car but decided because of her rudeness I would go elsewhere. Disappointed, but I would rather spend twice the amount for a business that appreciates their customers. read more

Very Quick and good price if you use the online coupon! Great customer service and best of all my car passed.

Fast, easy, not as busy as the place across the street and still does Star Smogs for those of us with older vehicles. I've actually been turned away from other Smog shops because my Yota Pickup is a '91! read more

This business is shoddy at best brought my 2007 truck in for a smog check. The guy drove it in there so and saw my check engine light on and smogged it anyway, knowing it was going to fail so they could charge me. You could've told me just to get my code, cleared and bring it in. Poor poor business sense. I DO NOT recommend this business at all, do not take your vehicle here they will rip you off if they can. take it to a no pass no pay place if you have any doubt, at least they'll only charge you half and a free retest. This guy wants to charge me for another test after I clear the codes. I usually support small business but this small business can go out of business as far as I'm concerned. read more

I go back across the street and tell him I want a refund .. the girl and guy were EXTREMELY Rude and told me they wouldn't give me a refund back and they were going to call the police if I didn't leave .. went back across street where was properly done and ask for the Bar number .. .. where I filed a complaint .. DONT EVER GO THERE .. GALT SMOG is cheaper and they care about there reputation in this small community read more

I have taken my car for the last 4 times that I needed a smog. I wanted to support my small community businesses. Today I took my car and ask for the discount that is advertised on line. But I was told I need to have it printed. Well not all of us have a printer at home or access to it. The wife was so rude I will never go there again. I was told of other places to get my smog but I said no and went here but not any more. I would not recommend this place anymore, I use to but not anymore. read more

They are great; easy in and easy out. I believe I was the first customer for them today. They had me out of there in under 15min. Shortly before I left, people started arriving. The most expensive Smog place I've ever been to; $78.00‍ But if your time is more valuable, you won't mind the extra $ you pay. I read in a review that their is a coupon they honor. Do better than I did and take time to find their coupon. I recommend this place off of time efficiency, customer service and convenience of location.... right off of the 99 in Galt. read more

Amazing service from a great family run business. I can't say enough about the quick service every time I have to smog a vehicle. I send everyone here. In and out so quick. Customer for life. Always a smooth experience. Don't go anywhere else in Galt but here read more

This is the third time I have used this shop and I haven't been disappointed once. They are friendly on the phone and their prices are good. I didn't have an appointment (the shop across the street said I needed one) they got me in and out of there in under 30 minutes. I will always recommend this shop for its attentive service and value. The shop across the street wanted to charge me twice as much and they said they needed an hour to do the check. I'm happy that I remembered this shop was here as I hadn't been here in over a year. read more

Apparently they don't honor coupons they market and made me pay an extra 40, 80 in total . DIDNT bother to mention it until after. Never going back. And will be recommending any other place but here read more

Great service! Tech knows his stuff and was very accommodating. I recommend them highly.

Great service is certainly correct for Smog Tech 3. I wish I got the name of the technician who worked on my car. Allow me to give you some details for why the deserve 5 stars. They are normally open from 9:00 - 1:00 on Saturdays. I pulled up to their driveway at 1:02. The technician was just closing the roll-up door. Our conversation went something like this: Me: "Are you closed"? Tech: "Yes. Are you here for a smog check?" Me: "Yes" Tech: "Ok, no problem. Pull up to the second bay. I'll take you." Me: "Really? thanks" Tech: "Oh, no problem. We'll have out out i a jiffy." I would definitely go back for my other smog checks if I'm in the area. Customer service is always a selling point for me. read more

I had called another Smog place in town in error thinking it was this one and the woman on the phone was so rude. I finally found the business card for Smog tech 3 and from the first call was greeted by the most friendly woman who told me they would be happy to have our business and bring our car in anytime. We got there and were greeted by the same sweet lady and our smog check with certificate was done in under 15 min! We had a coupon for a special 38.00 smog with certificate. The other place we called in error happened to be across the street. So glad we didn't go there and were serviced here. Will definitely be back!! Thanks for treating your customers like you appreciate our business!! read more

Went to many places trying to get my jeep smog inspected, most either were going to take an hour and a half or cost an arm to get it done. They had reasonable prices and had me out in 25 min. Very friendly. read more

Great service! Super fast! Use coupon from Penny Saver! Great place!

Great service! And super nice people. I highly recommend this place for all you smog needs!

Needed to get a smog check for my mothers 1999 Toyota Camry. I was very glad that i happened along this place. The first attempt her car passed emissions but failed the visual. He pointed out severe cracks on the air intake also gave me photos. I was not sure what to do though i had 20 days to take a retest. In that time i found the part on Amazon and found a video on Youtube on how to replace. I am not much of a mechanic but it looked fairly easy to do. Drove back up to Galt 17 days later and replaced it in under an hour. Immediately drove back to Smog Tech 3 for second test. It was $8 & change for retest also took advantage of their registration renewal option for an additional $40. To me it was well worth it. Walked out with passed test, renewed registration and new tags for car all in under 30 minutes. I was extremely happy with them and their service and highly recommend. read more

They are ripping off people, unprofessional, trying to find ways to charge you more, you will regret going there!!!

Happy Find! Was going to smog in Elk Grove near home but too long a wait and expensive. Spotted this place near my work and happy I did. Found a coupon, less than 10-15 minute wait, great service!! read more
