I came in this morning for a service at this Establishment I was met with this rude worker When asked him why he's giving me an attitude he thossed the paper work and started to walk away. As he did that he muttered "sand n " underneath his breath. When confronted again he didn't want to say it again or apologize. Terrible human being. Boy got scared didn't you ? read more

Terrible customer service. When asking for a quote for a smog, they refused service, stating they were "to busy" to assist in the moment. Not one car was in the shop and the older white gentleman was standing in the corner of the business trying to look busy. I asked when the next service was available and was told to come back another time. Completely unsatisfied! Went down the street and got smog checked in and out in under 30 minutes for only $39. Take your business elsewhere and safe you the headache of this place. 0/10 read more

I have taken our cars here for several years. The service is simple and straight-forward. The owner does his job quickly and methodically for a fair price. This is a local business. This is not chain or box store, and there are not any frills - at all. Vehicles are worked on in a first-come, first-serve basis. If you choose to wait, it will be outside and there may, or may not be, any chairs available to sit on. I like to support local businesses when I can, but there may be trade-offs. I have been treated efficiently and priced fairly here. read more

I was recommended by a coworker. No sooner had my vehicle been parked for the smog check to begin, my check engine light came on. He promptly told me that my car would automatically fail with a check engine light and he didn't charge me but told me to come back when it was fixed. Contrast that with the Smog Dog that I went to in Palm Springs. They saw my check engine light on before they started and did the whole smog test knowing I was going to fail and then CHARGED me! I never went back to them. This place is legit and the guy who works there is very friendly! read more

Called around today to get my car smogged and ended up speaking to the owner of the business his name was Cesar. The gentleman quickly gave me the quote that I requested and then said if I could make it in the next few minutes that he would be able to have me in and out in less than 10 minutes. on top of that his price was $10 less than the five other businesses I spoke to you before him. I showed up and Cesar introduced himself and gave me a firm handshake and quickly got to work and true to his word I was in and out in less than 10 minutes with the best price in the area. I've been in this area for close to a decade now and this was some of the best customer service I have had from any of the auto shops and definitely the quickest service. Apparently they also have an auto shop/tire shop next-door so I will be back and based on this experience and highly recommend them read more

Great business. Have had my families vehicles smog'ed here for several years now. Great customer service, great price. If you get to Tomas Smog before the rush you should not have to wait long. Thank you Tomas for the great customer service and price. Do not bring your vehicle here if you are looking for an illegal smog. Proverbs 15:22. read more

Do not go here! The owner is unknowledgeable, rude and purely ignorant. He failed my vehicle based on his lack of knowledge of CARB rules and regulations. It passed all emissions elements with flying colors. I have an K&N CARB (California air resource board) compliant air intake system on my truck. I had a receipt with the carb number and tried to show him on the companies website. He refused to acknowledge he was wrong and wouldn't look at my information. I am an automotive enthusiast and worked as a mechanic for many years. I would never put a non emissions compliant part on my vehicle. I took my vehicle to another smog shop down the street and it passed without issue 30 minutes later. He refused to give me a refund and acknowledge his error. I have since filed a complaint with BAR (Bureau of Automotive Repair). Don't waste your time with this shop. read more

Great customer service. I have taken all my vehicles here to get smogged. He is fast

Reliable, consistent and competent. I've done numerous smog checks here. Fair, efficient one-man operation. Tomas is straightforward and pleasant to do business with. read more

He was efficient and got the job done! I was happy with the service at Tomas Smog. I'd recommend him.

This guy has been doing it a long time. A little like the soup Nazi, but I love his meticulous manner and no nonsense approach. I've been coming here for years, he's good. read more

I don't know if I was scammed or this guy is just not up to date with all the newer technology on cars but I had to pay for a smog check and my car failed and was told that I needed new catalytic converters . Porsche $2000!?? and a tune up $1500??? and take it to some mechanic. I did some research on Google and the next day my car passed smog.I had to pay $62 for failed test and another $40 for this guy to retest my vehicle. definitely I was scammed or this guy is just not up to date with any of the newer vehicles . Do yourself a favor and get yourself a OBD2 scanner which you can get on Amazon for about 20 bucks if you come up with any fault codes while doing a smog check . my problem was I didn't drive my vehicle enough and the car needs to be warm and ready for this test to have happened it would have been nice if this guy explained anything but he seems so clueless and he just wants to take your money and move on to the next customer pass or failed This is an update to my review after coming here for the first time 4 years ago. I made an appointment for Friday August 21st 2020 at 8 a.m.. everything was fine I took my car here and I told the older gentleman that I needed a smog check and I haven't driven really my car at all in the last year-and-a-half and and he said no problem. After doing the smog check he said my car failed ,he suggested I get new catalytic converters have a mechanic look at it . I was extremely surprised knowing that my car just got a tune-up from Precision Porsche and it was driven mainly about 300 miles in the last 4 years. I did some research and turns out my car just needed to be put into a drive cycle and the catalyst wasn't ready. I did some research online and found out I needed to do a few things just to get the car ready for smog. Start engine, let idle for approx. 2 min, 10 secs Accelerate to 20-30 MPH or 32-48km/h, Maintain steady speed for approx 3 min, 15 secs Accelerate to 40-60 MPH or 64-96km/h, Maintain steady speed for approx 15 mins Decelerate and come to a stop Idle in Neutral for 5 mins (manual trans) During the drive cycle, do not exceed 3,000 rpm or 60 mph (96km/h) Saturday morning I followed the steps and the catalyst on my vehicle was ready. I called the smog shop again I told him that I needed a retest and the car was ready for it. The car pass smog with flying colors . read more

Because I'm a senior with disability issues, I've been very nervous about going for smog certification during this shutdown. Tomas Smog took very good care of me. It's a star certified station and the owner was very careful to wear a mask, social distance, and was careful about touching things inside the car. I am so grateful. I highly recommend this business and encourage others to go there. We need to keep our local businesses open and help them survive this terrible pandemic. read more

No pass? STILL PAY! policy over here. Took it to a local mechanic and they told me they wish they knew I was going there because this guy is out to get people. Sucks because I actually wanted to support local Redlands shops in times like this. But will be going back to Rialto smog stations. read more

I needed my car smog and decided to bring my car to this shop. Process was super easy and fast. My car passed the smog without any problems. I am glad I found a local redlands smog shop in town. Thanks again. My van is due for a smog next month. See you soon. read more

Mr. Moon is always fair, been getting my smog test there for over 10 years, even bought my last set of tires there. His shops are very clean and organised, his employees have been friendly and great. It took me years to get Mr. Moon to smile, lol, but he's extremely professional. read more

Very pleasant experience visiting here. Brought in my car around 9:10am and was done with the smog test by around 9:45am. The owner even provided me a coupon to use which brought down my total to $49. The place was super clean! I will definitely be visiting this place again for all my smog test needs. read more

Tomas Smog - Smog Check Stations Near Me - Redlands, California

I love this place. This is the 2nd time taking my car in for a smog check at Tomas Smog. Mr. Moon is always nice and friendly. I especially love how he always brings out this 20% coupon to make sure I get the discount, and then he staples it to the papers so I can either give it to friends or use it the next time, and it never expires. Now that's what I call a smart businessman. On older cars he charges about $10 more which is normal everywhere, but with the 20% discount it is still way cheaper than any other Star Certified Smog Check Station. I paid under $60 and that includes the $8 State Certification Fee. All this would have normally cost me over $70 with certification anywhere else. Will definitely keep coming back again, and again. Awesome friendly service!!! Pleasure to deal with!!! A+++++ read more

Attention!!!Worst place for smog check. The old man was rude, unprofessional. I told him about my batery cable problem, need jump start. He didnt warm me that smog check will pass cause of cable problem. He then proceed the job and result didnt passed. Then told me was my car cable problem. I asked how come didnt warn me that you cant do it, instead. What a jerk. He then threated to call police on me if i dont pay. No business for you. Please beware!! read more

This Smog spot & Daheen tires next door are GREAT! The owner is always very helpful & prices are good! It is the only place I use for my vehicles now. read more

I think this shop has been in Redlands for a long time. But I had bad experience this afternoon. I had to be required for my smog chek. I had been waiting and waiting do finally I got my turn and the owner started inspection and after few minutes he stopped doing that and gave my car key. He said " my machine may be something wrong so you gotta try different station" when I heard that it sound like refusing the service to me. I had been purchased whole tires 3 or 4 times (he has own tire shop, too). But I purchased tires at the America's tire because better deal than this guy's shop. I might think of this mater made him upset or something. Anyway, I went to A TOP LINE SMOG N TINT next to the DMV by yelp review. It costs 65 dollars but owner gave dicount and I just paid 55 dollars. I don't recommend thomas smog anymore. One more thing, U have to wait outside hot temp over 100 degrees cause no place for customers. read more

Scam Artist. Went in for a smog check. Right away 20% off! Then didn't even hook it up, said I had the wrong catalytic converter on my vehicle, didn't test it, and still charged me. Then gave me a "reduced" price to re-test it once I got it fixed. Brought it to a different shop, they tell me they have never had a vehicle pass smog out of that place... Don't let him get you too read more

I've always come here for my smog tests. I've been here 4 times. The owner is a very nice man that usually will give a coupon to bring the price down to just under $50. The shop is very clean and the staff is pretty friendly. The owner doesn't talk much, he just get you in and out. I always walk in and I think the longest I have ever waited was an hour because there were people before me. I have not purchased tires here but the prices look good for quality tires. I highly recommend this place! read more

Cleanest, quickest, and most friendly Smog check station I've been to. I highly recommend Tomas Smog for their professionalism and friendliness. Getting your car smogged doesn't have to be an obnoxious, annoying, and time-consuming endeavor anymore, just go to Tomas Smog. read more

Very courteous and professional. The shop was extremely clean and didn't have broken down junkers all over the place. It was also the least expensive if you have a coupon. I told the guy on the phone that I didn't have a coupon and he said it wasn't a problem he would give me one when I got there. read more

Came here with the recommendation of my father in law. He also gave me a 20% coupon. My father in law also mentioned that if you dont have the coupon he usually gives it to you anyways. Its kind of hidden because they really dont have a sign. The sign is so small, if you blink you will miss it. Its right next to the J&C tire shop, across from the high school, right before the car dealer ship. I drove around couple times looking for it. Small clean shop. The guy was really nice, I was helped right away. Took probably 20 mins. He also checked my oil and suggested that I get my valves adjusted. Total came out to 50.00. I guess that is the normal price? 50-80 dollars. I'm originally from up north and am used to paying 28-40 dollars. Minus one star for the teeny tiny sign. read more

Had my smog check done here last week my experience was terrible the smog technician was rude and very unprofessional.
