A recent forced change of location (now on the corner of Industrial and Market in the industrial area of Escondido) but Mr. Ed is still the one I trust to smog all of our vehicles. He was recommended to me by my mechanic s shop Hawthorne Tire & Auto, and this is where we come consistently. The prices are reasonable. Appointments are encouraged but walk-ins are ok too. If you are getting an RV smog checked, he may recommend you coming later in the day as he has limited parking. If your phone call doesn t get answered right away, call back. He s mostly a one-man show but you ll be treated with kindness and respect, like the good ol days!

Ive been going here to smog my dually/RV for years.Due to tall doors.I wish he had a bigger sign though, as the place can be difficult to see, unless you know where it is.

Ed is the best! I've been taking all of my vehicles to him for years. Super relaxed and easy to deal with, very competent. I won't go anywhere else.

Knowing that I needed a SMOG on my car, made me uneasy because I was expecting having to research SMOG companies and price checking. But when I talked to Ed over the phone. I cannot believe that it was so easy! As soon as I called him, he knew what I needed to bring with me and set me up for an appointment. He is very friendly and very professional. When I arrived for my appointment, he got me in and out in 20 minutes. Also, being a AAA member, I did not know that I could just take my paperwork to AAA and they could give me my tags right there. He let me know that I could do that which is great because my registration is already expired. I definitely recommend this company to any of my friends and family!

I am new to the area and choose this station by reading the reviews and have to agree with all the remarks. When I took my 2006 Scion TC to have it smogged it was easy and the gentlemen who took care of me was so kind to go beyond his job and stated the air in my tires were off and he had put the proper air in them. I was in and out of there in 20 minutes. Recommend his service to anyone and did pass the word on to were I titled my car as she asked and I happily gave her his address and number.

This is the best smog place I've been so far. Ed checked all my tires pressure, including the spare, filed them up, told me which gas stations are best for smog checks, and told me about anything else he saw that needed attention on my car for free. Don't worry he isn't trying to sell anything he's just a genuinely good guy

I don't have a lot of needs for a smog check place, but Auto Park Smog made me feel comfortable. The price was clear on the wall, and Ed was friendly and personable, and answered my questions well. I called in the morning and set up an appointment for later in the day, which made it a quick 30 minute appointment. I'll be coming back here again.

Owner is great to work with. Popular place, may have to wait a few minutes past scheduled appt time, but otherwise no complaints. Give guidance on how to use AAA rather than mail in to DMV.

My family has 4 cars so we have to smog check an average of 2 every year. We always go here because the Technician is extremely helpful, quick and gives us very good service. He also will advise us on what to do / what not to do before a test, and what gas is the best for our cars. It's the best place in Escondido!

The gentleman who runs this shop is so friendly and always very informative about current laws for the DMV. I moved farther and I will still take my cars here over somewhere closer to me. Excellent service!

I live past the Temecula area now and still drive all the way here when ever I need a smog check. Ed is very friendly and extremely professional, one of the vehicles I own was having trouble with the check engine light not going off, after getting some work done on the car and the check engine light turning off I took it to Ed, before he started the smog he checked the computer in the car and informed me that after getting work done on the car I needed to drive it a few hundred miles to reset its internal computer or it wouldn't pass smog. I appreciated him being upfront and honest and not running the full test knowing I would fail and then charging me for it. Also for the 1 star review, Ed is the only person who works here and its smog only, he does no repairs. So it seem highly unlikely he would intentionally brake something just to make extra money on a repair when he doesn't do repairs....

A one-man shop that does Star Smog testing for vehicles. Ed is extremely knowledgeable, and thorough in his work. The best part is his price is the most competitive I could find in town. Some of the shops within a mile of his charge double the price for the same smog test. I will go back.

This guy will do his best to fail you. I took my truck to him and he failed my Cats cause i had a sticker that said HD which made it a different model. i called gmc for the cats and they said my model was not an HD and i had the right Cats. He almost cost me 3k and future failed smogs. please be careful with this guy.
