So, when I read that I have to get a smog check. It gives me pause. Thoughts of "what if I fail"? start gloominating in my head. I digress ... I saw Husain yesterday ( this neighborhood GEM is literally around the corner from our home)...I told him I would be there first thing Monday morning. AND, I was there first thing this morning. I saw another customer pull in to park on the street and we began to chat amicably. A lovely fellow and a nearby neighbor. Anyway, by 9:15a Husain arrived and began to set everything up. Hutz plutz and "ta da", the test was finished and I PASSED... woo hoo. His prices are so fair! And lower than most nearby places... And it was a lovely experience! I highly recommend this small business and our community is so lucky to have him here. And there are great food choices close by... I love my community and neighborhood!!!

Made my appt online- very convenient and received email confirmation. I rolled up to my 7am appt (first of the day) and there was one car already pulling into garage and aside from him - it was only me. I looked into the office - no one there. So I looked to the mechanic and he didn't speak - just pointed to the office. So I went inside. Still no one there. No indication that anyone was present. I waited for 7 minutes - which feels like a long time in an empty office. So I left. I know they had a record of my pending visit because when I called in to (leave a message? I didn't think anyone was there..) someone answered! "Oh yes I saw you pull in .... Maybe they were in the bathroom." If you open at 7a and you know someone has an appt at 7a, maybe schedule your bathroom break accordingly? Like before you open? Leave a sign somewhere that says .. "be right back" ?? Anything? Side note; the mechanic seemed like a woman hater.

I have been dealing with a loose front engine splash shield on my Honda fit for quite some time. It…read morewould constantly scrape the ground and many of the holes where screws went were completely ripped open so just getting new screws wasn't an option. I had been quoted by the dealership nearly $500 to replace it. I was also told I could just take it completely off and drive without one. Han at the front office of Nono's informed me that not only do cars splash shields (skid plates) protect the vital parts from rocks and other debris, but they also play an important role in the car's aerodynamics. This can have an effect on your cars fuel efficiency, but more importantly in my book, it can cause your hood to rattle at a certain speed as the air comes up through the engine bay and hits the bottom of the hood. IN SUMMARY, Han saved me from an incredibly obnoxious rattle and spending more money down the line. They completely fixed my splash shield by adding new holes and fasteners. I didn't hear a shingle scrape on my way home, even hitting large dips or speed bumps. And they did that repair for FREE. Han only charged me for the oil change I got as well, in which they use only full synthetic oil. I've always come here and I will continue to as they find a way to help you out every service. Nono has spent decades hand picking a team that will carry his same principles and integrity, and I believe he has succeeded in that.
