I'm currently waiting for my car to be smog checked. Luckily they are open on Sundays. Service is quick and efficient. Only had to wait ahead of one other customer. read more

Was recommended by my mechanic and have been coming here now for years! Super nice staff, quick and reliable service.

I dread taking my vehicle anywhere but AJ made the experience quite pleasant! He was quick thorough and answered all the questions I had.

Came on a Saturday morning and it seemed like service would have been quick but I left before getting the smog check because the guy wasn't wearing a mask. read more

I normally get my smog done at a place that changes me $29.95, and then $9.95 for the paperwork which includes the DMV transmission fee. There was a line of maybe 5 cars ahead of me, so I decided to try a smog station close by where I lived. When I showed up at 11:30am, there was a lady who was in front of me, and she seemed to be half way done, so I decided to try this place out. They also had a coupon for $25.95, and I figured an additional $10 or so for the paperwork, and this place seems to be really cheap. After the lady left, the fellow working there introduces himself as AJ. They also have this sign that says yelp users get $5 off. I showed him the $25.95 coupon and he told me that I needed to put in my yelp review to get that price. Sure thing I thought, and as he's filling out the paperwork, he tells me that I need to add $10 because it's an SUV. Well, I normally would subtract a point just because the place I normally go to doesn't add additional prices, but since this place is so close to my house, I agreed. AJ continues to do the work, and he's just about finished when he asks me if I had changed the battery in my car. Yes, I told him, why? He tells me that I need to drive on the freeway for 40 miles at 60 miles per hour, and then bring the car back to him, and I should get my paperwork. He tells me that it's a computer problem on his end. He also tells me that I need to fill out my yelp review. I quickly write a couple sentences and submitted my review. I then paid $40.95. Okay, I figure from here to Corona is about 20 miles, and I ended up going to Riverside, turning off at McKinley, and drove back to the smog station from there. I got back, nobody was at the smog station, so I pulled in. AJ comes up, looks at my mileage, and pretty much fills out another form and they want to charge me another $29.95 for a retest. I was like, what? I pretty much went off on him and told him that I can easily go to another place where they'll take care of me for the same price as the retest, I also barked at him because he said that it was a computer problem on his end. I told him that my 2000 friends that I have on Facebook/instagram/Yelp would love hearing about their shop. He then calls the owner, and he ends up changing it to just the price of the $8.25 paperwork fee + the $5 DMV transmission fee, and tells me that he's the guy in the middle and it's not his fault. By me writing my yelp review, I was supposed to get $5 off, and based on what I paid, I overpaid by $10. I paid $40.95, ($25.95 + the $10 SUV charge would equal $35.95 - my $5 yelp review would equal $30.95) $10 over the amount I supposedly owed, which I figured out when I got home and added things up. So for my total, I paid $40.95 + $13.25. Basically just $8 off their list price. Look, if you're going to offer a coupon, then please honor it. By doing all this add $10 here and adding $10 without me catching it at the time, and then a full retest if I would not have complained, is just plain horrible. I know this isn't a lot of money, so I don't know why you try to weasel me out of $10 here, and $10 there. If you would have honored your coupon without any additions, I would have easily recommended your store to all my friends, instead, you play around with $20, and try to add $29.95 to my bill. Overall, not even for a lot of money- not cool at all. I know AJ seems like a nice guy, and he kept saying that it was what you wanted, well, we'll see how many Facebook/Instagram/yelp users pay attention to this. read more

Good place for smog to get done for a good price. Make sure you check in to get 50% off.

I've been bringing my cars here for years, and have always been generally satisfied. It's a STAR (test only) facility, and I found it when one of my bi-annual SMOG check notices required me to go to a STAR Certified location. My first experience there was great, so I continued going there for all of my vehicles, even when test only wasn't required, because it was so easy and convenient for me. I've been there at least ten times in the past so it has become my habit to just go there. My family has 12 vehicles so I need a lot of SMOG checks. However, all of that was thrown out the window today, and I will never go back under any circumstances. Unsolicited nasty political comments from employees are inexcusable, and I do not appreciate them in the slightest. It would be one thing if I had initiated a political discussion, but I did not. I didn't say a word, and there was nothing about me or my vehicle that would give anyone any clue as to my political opinions. The tech who was working today decided on his own to start making nasty political comments without any reason or prompting from me. So for that reason, I will never go back there, and that is unfortunate, because now I have to find another place to use. read more

I bought the Groupon and they honored it without issue. He was nice and Professional and though there were 2 people ahead of me I was about to get out of there in a relatively short amount of time. read more

ABDELIALAL LAZIM now at the Orange location, is the worst and apparently he's a manager? 1st, after calling to say what time I'd arrive, he shooed me away, because he was eating lunch. Then he refused to perform the free re-test. (The first test failed at the same location a few days earlier, faulty gas cap.) He said it's because the VIN # under the windshield isn't visible. It's been that way since I bought the car from a dealership, in CA, in 2005. The DMV verified the VIN, it's on the door, and I've registered the car every year since, online, smog test every other year. Abdelialal thinks he knows more than the DMV and Dept. of Consumer Affairs Bureau of Automotive Repair. This is from their manual. No where does it say that the only acceptable VIN is the one under the windshield : "When using the vehicle registration documents to scan vehicle information, you must first verify the VIN shown on the registration document matches the VIN on the vehicle. If the VIN does not match, the inspector shall use the VIN affixed to the vehicle and inform the customer of the mismatch and that it may cause the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) not to accept the test results." EVERYTHING MATCHES AND ALL STICKERS ARE IN PLACE. Looks like all the bad reviews are because of him. Why would you keep him employed? P.S. BEN on the other hand, is awesome! He should be promoted! read more

Great customer service!!! Quick and fast service, only had to wait for 10-15 minutes with three other people ahead of me. Highly recommend this place!!! read more

Smog Time - Great service and even better time! Quick, great customer service and great price! - Smog Check Stations Near Me - Orange, California

I went here to smog my BMW M3. The person who performed my smog check told me that he couldn't view the O2 sensors on my car because the OEM skid plates were "blocking" his view. He complained again and again saying it was my problem. Then he made another excuse saying that I tampered with my O2 sensors because he said there was a spacer, which wasn't true. With the M3 the 02 sensors are located in the exhaust manifold and after the catalytic converter. I went to another smog place with more experience and they cleared it with no issue and charged $10 less. I will never go back here ever again. read more

AJ was very friendly and professional. I will be a returning customer. Very fast service!

I have never been so dissatisfied and disappointed with the lack of professionalism and service provided by any company as I have with this station. The station refused to honor their free recheck policy and proceeded to yell and swear at my daughter and sleeping grandchild, which was absolutely uncalled for as well as unjustified, since the original service was done by the service station that provided the repairs to my vehicle NOT my daughter and her baby. The complaints were absolutely misdirected at my daughter and it is NOT ok to take YOUR frustrations out on an innocent woman and baby. I have never written a Yelp review or even cared to until today. You can be Damn Sure I will NOT BE RECOMMENDING THIS PLACE TO ANYONE! read more

I've been here twice and had great experiences! AJ is always quick w the smog checks. Will definitely be coming back in the near future

I never review things but today I felt I had to. I went in there to inquire about a few things. Before even being able to say anything, the technician told me to wait in my car until he was done with two others in front of me. I just wanted to ask a question or two, but still he insisted that I wait in my car, so I did. After I waited for the two others to be done, he let additional car go in front of me. I'm sure they're good at what they do, but the customer service they have is probably the worst I've had in any SMOG location. I'll just pay more at another location so I don't have to deal with their disorganization. If I could give it less than 1 star I would. read more

Great price and great service! Fast and courteous service by Felix! He even gave me some life tips after my inspection as I was on my way out the door! Can't wait to see Felix again when one of my other cars is due for a smog check. Skratta Du Fölora Du!!! Mannen!!! read more

The price was great $29 with my Groupon. They were also super quick. The only reason I'm giving it 4 stars is because I didn't like being cut off and told to wait my turn when all I was trying to do was make sure I was at the right place for my Groupon. The guy then later explained he didn't want me talking about a Groupon in front of the other guy because he was paying $65 for the same service. If all you're worried about Is price and quickness go here. read more

This was my first time here was able to drive right in, only took about 10 min to complete. The gentleman that service my SUV was very professional & courteous. I would recommend this smog place. read more

No wait on Thursday afternoon. Was there for 10 minutes only. Don't forget the yelp offer $39.75 plus certificate $8.25. Show the technician AJ the yelp offer and he applies the discount without question. Highly recommend this place. Thank you AJ for the quick friendly service read more

Hard to rate this business because I did not actually have any services here. It opens at 9:30 on sundays. I came at 10, nobody in the building and nobody answering the phone. Recommend you call ahead. read more

Just dropped in and AJ helped me out. Very quick - was in and out. I came in because I saw the Yelp check in deal but was told since I have an SUV (even though it's a subcompact one) there would be an additional $10 charge even though their check in clearly says "all cars." My total ended up being way more than expected. I should've gone elsewhere but was on a time crunch. Regardless, they got me out relatively quick. Just be aware their Yelp check in price is misleading. Also - he required a review in exchange for the online deal. It was uncomfortable writing an honest review as he's checking me out so just be mindful of that as well. read more
