I live in Petaluma CA and this was the closest state licenced Brake and Light Inspection station I could find after a couple weeks of making phone calls, trying to get info from the DMV, surfing the net etc. They were even available to help me within a couple days of calling! Their service was great. I needed this inspection because I was required to get a salvage title for my recently damaged 2000 Dodge Ram Van 3500.There was one place in Santa Rosa who could help but they have a 2 month waiting list. Lots of stations used to be licensed but after COVID most seem to have stopped providing this service. On Ja 1 2024 there is going to be an entire new safety inspection required. Good luck finding someone with an updated license and training.

Totally honest and great pricing for repairs!This father and son Team are wonderful! Never been screwed or ripped off.Great place to meet the nicest people from Martinez! Easy going and friendly atmosphere. Will, the son, is very helpful in explaining what is necessary. I asked why I had not been required to get my new car smoged yet? Will said I have a grace period of 8 years., then it would be required every two years. They are busy so not a lot of Chit Chat!Just great honest father and son taking excellent care of their local customers!

I brought my bmw in for a brake and light inspection and the old white guy who works here is super rude and has an attitude. As per the brake and light inspection the only thing I was told was that it will take 2 hours and did not tell me anything through the process of them doing it. At one point the old guy which I assume is the owner just got into my car and just started driving away to which I screamed where are you going. He told me that it s part of the inspection, I could understand that it is part of inspection but he did not mention anything to me or tell me anything. When he went on that little drive around the block I could hear him step on the gas pretty hard and I could even hear engine rev up pretty loudly. At the end he failed me for bad brake pads to which I had to get fixe then come back and then he passed me. I also felt pretty nervous of him getting in my car and moving it around because he did not even know how to get the car in gear or remove the parking break but his shop says bmw certified. Overall had a horrible experience at this place and I will not bring my business here any more I will continue to use another shop, do not let their price encourage you to go hereService: Initial registration

I have been going to Guys Smog Inc.ever since I moved to Martinez years ago. I have always brought my vehicles here since then. Both Guy and his son are excellent and fair! This is a certified Star Smog Check station as well,which is great for the older vehicles! Great fast service and I will continue to patronize this reputable establishment going forward ! ..and P.S.-I am not a friend or relative so this is a completely unbiased review!

For Better or Worse, this guy is a stickler when it comes to your car. He will not pass it unless it is correct. Break and light inspection

They noticed my catalytic converter had started to get cut and let me know so I could have it welded closed. They seem like a good bunch of guys.

This place is the best! Will and his father really took great care of my car, provided thorough details of what was wrong with it, and went above and beyond to make sure my car was in good shape! 100% recommend this place!

Very RUDE guy works here! I can't believe he is still in business with his disdainful attitude towards humanity! The guy acted like I was annoying him but taking my car in for a smog test. Going to the dentist and having my wisdom teeth pulled was more enjoyable than sharing place on the planet with this miserable person. I will never be back....life is too short

Took my car to these guys and I was shocked at how rudely I was treated. They just looked at my car and said in another language to another guy, then tells me no pass ...I said you didn t even try and what is wrong? He s said I needed a bumper. It s not illegal to drive without a bumper then I was told to get out of here go somewhere else he wouldn t answer any questions I had or anything then started yelling but I couldn t understand him

Always go here for CA Star compliant smog testing. I leave the car, walk down for coffee, walk back, the car is done. they are fair, prompt, and reliable. It's not the most tidy place but it's a smog service shop and they do a good job.

DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES BRING YOUR VEHICLE TO THIS LOCATION. NOT ONLY ARE THEY INCREDIBLY RUDE, THEY ARE DISHONEST AND UNPROFESSIONAL. MONEY HUNGRY VULTURES IS THE TERM THAT COMES TO MIND.THEY MAY OFFER A GOOD PRICE BUT THAT IS ONLY BECAUSE THEY HAVE NO INTENTION OF ACTUALLY PASSING YOUR VEHICLE. YOU WILL HAVE TO PAY TWICE REGARDLESS.I HAVE NEVER ENCOUNTERED ANYTHING LIKE I DID AT GUYS SMOG AND I AM APPALLED AT THE WAY THE RUN THEIR "BUSINESS". THEY ARE NOT THE SAME OWNERS AS IN OTHER REVIEWS. THE SHOP WAS PURCHASED IN THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS. PREVIOUS OWNERS WERE VERY NICE AND VERY HELPFUL.DO NOT GO THERE .... YOU WILL QUICKLY REGRET IT. UNLESS YOU ENJOY BEING TREATED LIKE A SECOND CLASS CITIZEN.MARTINEZ, CA
