Do not go here. I called ahead and was told the smog check would be $60. After the service was completed, the receipt showed $80 minus a $20 coupon. This is misleading pricing. If the regular price is $80, that should be clearly stated before the service is done -- not explained afterward as a coupon discount. After reading other customer reviews, it looks like I am not the only one with concerns about their pricing. Many reviews mention similar issues, which makes this even more disappointing. I would not recommend this place. read more

The Smog Shop - Smog Check Stations Near Me - Saugus, California

Not open on Sunday even though it says open on Sunday. Is it hard to update when you're open?

Gave away my email in order to acquire a $20 off coupon and the final price was still higher than the other local Smog Shops. What a scam. Can't wait to unsubscribe from that email list. read more

I needed two smog tests and was happy I found this shop. The process was fast and efficient. Their tech was professional and courteous as well. I recommend you take advantage of their online coupon offer for a nice added discount. Makes for a great value. I highly recommend. read more

Always helpful, always available. this location is off of Railroad, entrance in back.

The owner is very nice and honest I really like there service and it's very affordable they don't overcharge like other places

Called before going, was quoted $60. Got there, older gentleman then stated it's $80. I read a persons review that she used coupon and was around $40 dollars total. Misleading prices, did not smog my car, guy pulled the old switcharoo, go somewhere else. read more

STAY AWAY!! Dishonest! The guy first said it was $70 for Smog Check. I had printed out a $20 coupon from their website and then he said oh- he can only take $10 off and it would be $60. He is not honest and will charge you whatever he wants to. o would never go there again! read more

Super shady business here. It was my fault for not asking how much the smog check would be before giving over my keys, but living in California for 10 years I just assumed it would be in the regular 30-50$ range. The gentleman performing the service asked if I would be paying with cash, and when I said how much is it, was told $80. I said "I only have $40 cash" so he offered to give me a $10 discount if I gave him $20 and put $50 on a card. What?? Started feeling really weird at this point so I went on the website where I couldn't see their rates listed but did find a $20 off coupon which he did honor, begrudgingly. Something felt very off in this transaction, like I was being charged a rate he made up based on assuming I didn't know how much a smog test usually costs. Do not recommend, or at the very least make sure to ask rates before agreeing to service. read more

Just stopped by for a smog check mind you I called before to see how much it was gonna be. The man stated it was 59.95 so I get there as soon as he's done he's telling me that it's 80 and I ask him that I have a coupon that I want to use the coupon clearly states it's $25 off. He says he can only do 20. I'm like OK cool so then he tells me at 65 mind you he literally said it was 5995 and I told him he's an older man barely understand so I was already there. The thing got done, but this is very unprofessional and honestly a scam. And what really threw me off is that when before I told him that I had a coupon he said it was 60 after I told him that I had the coupon. He stated me at 65 with the coupon that makes zero sense and that's literally unacceptable. read more

Fast service at a fair price. Open when they post they're open. I went to the smog place across from the DMV on 4 different occasions and nobody was there and they never answer their phone so I was happy to find this place. read more

This morning I had smog check at this shop. After work, I asked him how much it was. He said 'Thirty' dollars but I found he charged me 'Seventy'. I am an Asian with Asian accent. Definitely it is the old-fashioned trick. Luckily I had a discount coup and he gave me 'Fifteen' dollar discount. As a result, I paid 'Fifty five' dollars. Totally I paid 'Fifty five' dollars. He said next time it would be free. Funny. For your information, I am an accountant, and can recognize the pronunciation 'Thirty' and 'Seventy'. read more

This is the only place I go to for Smog checks. I have been going to The Smog Shop for the last 10 years and am satisfied ever since. It's not rocket science, he checks, it passes and gets sent to the DMV. Most importantly it's not going to make me broke like other shops. I still take all of my cars there to this day and its always been quick and easy - in and out. I would recommend this shop. read more

Finally had the time to bring my gfs car for the required STAR smog, online and Yelp states they are open until 4pm. I got here at 2:30pm to buddy locking up the front door and calling it a day. Come on man that's a whole hour and a half early. Unprofessional. read more

This is my go to for Smog Check location in Santa Clarita, they are friendly, quick and reasonably priced.

Overpriced for no reason. Dude charged $80. Best to take your money across to Mana's Smog where it's $50.

Great service fast and convenient. Will definitely be a return customer. The gentleman is very knowledgeable read more

The Smog Shop - Smog Check Stations Near Me - Saugus, California

Been here 3 times. First time my vehicle failed due to my ECU OBDII not ready after I replaced the crankshaft sensor. I came back for a retest 27 days and 600 miles later prior to the 30 day free retest period. The technician seemed inconvenienced by my arrival for a retest while he was watching tv with his feet kicked up on the desk doing nothing. The technician claimed that the OBDII code reader still showed not ready despite my code reader saying the contrary.He wouldn't show me his code reader and told me to come back in a couple days. He went back in the office to continue watching tv. This guy seems like a total douchebag. Came back the next day for a third visit. This time a different technician and he was really friendly. Checked my vehicle and it passed the retest. Talked to him about the other technician and he's heard complaints about him before but apparently the owner won't fire him. I called to get another vehicle smogged a couple months later. Got the same douchebag technician. Basically hung up on me. Claimed he was too busy to take my call but I suspect he was just watching tv again. Inconsistent service. Gonna go back to my old smog check location. My suggestion to the owner, fire the lazy unfriendly technician and I'll reevaluate my review and maybe try again but until that happens I'm not wasting my time. read more

Great shop. Super quick, lowest price, the staffs are friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. I will bring all my cars here for smog checks. Thanks Kamy for the great help. read more

Passed the smog check with him but he wasn't that polite. He tried to blame me for his machine not printing a receipt for him. He ended up taking my receipt. You get 1 Star sir for your terrible customer service. read more

ZERO stars for this place. My mom is on a limited income so we called around to find the best price. We were told $60 on the phone and we had found a $20 coupon on his site so we were expecting to pay $40. After the check he handed us a bill for $80. I explained we had called and were expecting to pay $40 with the coupon. He proceeded to argue with me about how he just tells people the price over the phone that includes the coupon already. He fails to mention that when you call though. I tried to explain that it should be made clear that price already includes the coupon so there are no surprises. I tried to explain how it comes off as false advertising and he told me to stop talking. He ended up giving us an additional $10 off the original price which was still more than we were expecting to pay. Would not recommend this place. Rude and false advertising. read more

The guy here was very rude. I tried getting my car smogged and he was charging me a higher price than what was said. Not sure if it was because I was a female. I will not be returning to this place! read more

Fair price and reliable service, very quick service, i been going there for last 6 years.

1-20-2019 $55.00 with business card coupon. 1-8-2017 $45.00 with Yelp coupon and open on Sunday. It only took about 5 minutes for my car's SMOG check and the results are submitted directly to the DMV. A++ read more

If I could leave a zero star review, I would. The employee crashed our SUV into the metal casing around the dynamometer in front of my wife. She heard the crash and saw the employee back up and re-park the vehicle. Employee (Kamy) completed the test and returned the key. After my wife asked about the crash, he got defensive and denied doing it. When confronted with the evidence, he just kept telling her to get a lawyer. I called the shop and he started yelling at me saying to get lawyer and he hung up on me. His tune changed when sheriff was called, but he still refused to provide information. Inwaited 5 weeks to submit review hoping the business would take responsibility for the damage. Nope. Use with caution as this was our most expensive smog check. read more

Under new management. I take my '99 Pathfinder in their every two years. $45/20 minutes. This year - $70!! Why? The guy said these older vehicles take longer and there's a new owner. In their parking lot I Googled another place, literally across the street. He took me in right away - $40/15 minutes. It's sad that loyalty over the years just doesn't count. read more

I just left the smog shop with my 1998 Honda Civic and Eli exceeded my expectations! Exceptional customer service, great prices, and a stand up guy who took care of my smog without any complications. Will definitely come back for my next one. Thanks Eli! read more

Came to this shop a while ago. The guy there named Eli was very friendly and knowledgeable. He made sure I left satisfied and kept a good convo while he was working on my car. I highly recommend this place read more

I had been coming here for over a decade, but today was the last day. I have a car that overheats if it idles for more than about 15 minutes. At this place it was never an issue because as other reviewers have said, they were fast. There was no line today so I thought great, I'll be done in 15 minutes. Well 15 minutes later, I'm still trying to explain the overheating problem to whoever this guy was. As the car started overheating, he told me to take it somewhere else. As I was driving away, he yelled at me to "get your fucking piece of shit out of here" When I replied that I had actually heard that, another string of unrecognizable profanity started, but I drove off at that point. And I think I understand why there was no line. read more

The Google and Yelp said they were open. I was in the same shopping center to get an oil change. Rode through the back and their garage door was open. So, drove to the front and parked in front. Went to the front door and it was locked. There was a guy there just sitting and staring; no signs on the window that state closed. I went to another smog place across the street and I was seen. read more

Good pricing. Good service. Called for a smog check quote. Got a good deal with no coupons necessary. Did not need appointment. Took car in and was out within minutes. It was fast and easy. read more

There is a coupon on their website that reduces the smog check fee to $39.95. With the certificate fee and the electronic transfer fee, you end up paying $50. The website claims that the check can be done in about 15 minutes, but that only applies if you are the only customer they have at the moment. Give them at least 45 minutes, because there will be other cars in front of you. There appears to be only one test bay, which means only one car gets worked on at a time. There was only one guy working there when I went this afternoon. No one working the front desk. Just the one mechanic. I decided to try this place out based on the five-star reviews that were on a couple of other websites, but all those are written by the guy who runs the shop. I decided to yelp this business with the rating it deserves. Three stars, to me, means not horrible, no major problems, but not awesome either. read more

Excellent service. Fast and honest merchant. I have been coming here for 3 years and always come back. I recommend this shop to all SCV for the test only service. read more

Just got back from taking another vehicle to the smog shop. Mo is the person who really takes pride in his work and real humble. I was in for as little as twenty minutes and let me tell you he did a great job. As long as he is around, I am always taking our vehicles to him. read more

Eli greeted me and made sure I knew he knew I was here :-) His excellent customer service gave me confidence and made me feel right at home. This is the 4th time we have brought vehicles here and every time is a great experience! Thank you to The Smog Shop for great friendly service. read more

It was a solid smog check but the guy who did my check had a bit of an attitude.. friendly he was NOT

I took my vehicle on a Sunday morning and no one was there. The entire process took only 10 mins and only cost $40. Great service, friendly technician and unbeatable price. Highly recommended! read more
