Mr. Lee Bong the technician at this location and only unhealthy individual usually present damaged one of the vehicles I brought him for test and a subsequent retest because of a FAIL result.According to Mr. Lee Bong the vehicle failed on the retest as well during which time he let his wife, girlfriend, daughter who knows boyfriend not just touch my vehicle during the test but he even tried letting her in the before he drove into the shop on to the Dyno. Then continued to drive the vehicle with the hood open letting all type of dirt who knows what else get under the hood even drove off the Dyno with the door open and then back on. All while having a late model white Toyota pull up right behind my vehicle that was in the process of ownership change.He didn't just damage the air filters but the cooling system also he was literally ripping hoses out, with his hands. Then told me he can't keep the speed or something and that the rpm is not steady.After I paid this elderly obviously mentally ill, uneducated, plain hazardous and very very dangerous elderly Asian Man that I couldn't believe did this to one of my vehicles. I was on my way to a AAA Certified Repair Facility which also does smog but it's almost 40 miles away my vehicle developed a coolant leak right before the destination and had a low coolant light on ever since Mr. Lee Bong originally tested the vehicle. After he does that light comes on about that distance away.Just another one of these places that someone like Mr. Lee Bong has no business in, near and especially around a Mercedes Benz or people like him. I received an estimate for almost $3000 just under an hour after leaving this place and that's just for the coolant leak, air filter, and fuel induction service which on the first test after not having the slightest idea how to open the gas tank he discovered that the gas cap is bad after awhile.I've had him tell me multiple multiple times before I mean this how sick this elderly man is that he doesn't want to do smog, especially older car, Dyno it takes too long, not to come back. That he only does new car because it's fast. I mean just a bunch of unbelievable stuff right, I wonder how many older models vehicles he damaged after or before putting them on a Dyno one of my cars he almost crashed into the wall. And last week I believe he just closed early even stating himself that he is sick and that he is home and does not know when he will be back.Very interesting name too right, Mr. Lee Bong. My car even smells like marijuana and I don't smoke, sell, transport, grow don't even like the smell or have the slightest interest in drugs, alcohol or tobacco no matter how good it all sounds, feels and the type of income it brings taxable or not.Lee take care ok

This man has been in business 22 years, and I know why. He's very cordial when you first meet him, and then down to business. Quick, efficient, and the best price for a smog in LA County that I could find. Have been here before and will definitely come back when it's time.

Absolutely the best place for a Smog Test. Total testing is $50 cash, $52 if paying with a card. The process takes about 15 minutes to complete. There s no retests here so a word of caution. Best time to come out is mid-week in the morning.

Been an exceedingly satisfied patron for many, many years. Prompt service, reasonable charge, and just as importantly, if not more, an honest and cheerful owner/operator. Highly recommended.
