What a fantastic place to get your car SMOG certified!! At the time of writing, there are no appointments necessary. You just show up anytime during business hours and you are good to go. Speaking of business hours, this shop is open 7 days a week!When I went, there was one customer ahead of me with his car in the garage. I waited 15 minutes until it was my car's turn in the garage and in the meantime another customer arrived.The man running the SMOG station was very friendly and helpful. The price is good, too!Did I mention that this garage is open 7 days a week?!! Check them out - You won't be sorry!

I just showed up to get a smog check and the gentleman working took my car right in and tested it. I passed and the whole process was very fast and professional and affordable. Thank you for your great service. Highly recommend this shop especially because they have great smog check prices compared to a lot of other local shops in the area that charge double or even triple at some shops.!!! This is the SMOG CHECK STATION everyone in the area should go to. Great Business.

Called ahead, service was very polite on the phone. Got to location and they were finishing one smog, and there was one more smog ahead of me. Was told a 15 minute wait and I waited exactly 15 minutes. It took less than 10 minutes for my car to be done. They honored their online coupon, and were totally professional and polite. Absolutely would recommend!

It was around that time to get my car smogged and word around the block was that this was the place to go! The owner helped me personally and had me in and out in just a matter of minutes. The location is convenient and business hours are the best out of any smog shop I ve been to in the past. The pricing is fair and the customer service is priceless. I recommend this place to anyone needing their car smogged and need a reliable place.Service: Smog certification

Drove up from downtown because they're open Sundays. Service was exceptional, price competitive, efficient shop, super nice people! Rare to find an auto shop where you drive away feeling 100% good about the whole experience. This is that kind of shop.

These guys are great! They re reasonably priced, were able to smog an old SAAB for $40 less than their nearest competitor, and patiently walked me through how to perform a drive cycle after the computer was reset by another mechanic (the car needed additional data to pass its smog check). Highly recommended!Service: Smog certificationService: Smog certification

Met the owner today and had one of my fleet trucks smog tested. Only took several minutes to complete and was on my way. Very nice family owned business, I would defiantly recommend for all your smog testing. I have several vehicles and will bring them here for smog services.Services: Change of ownership, Smog certificationServices: Change of ownership, Smog certification

After waiting hours at the DMV, they required me to get a Smog check before registering my car from out of state. Called in and was told I ll be in and out in 10 minutes or less! Super friendly, polite and quick, like clockwork no time wasted (checked in and out in less than 10 mins!) Good music, nice clean waiting area and some free snacks while you wait! Highly recommended 10/10!NEAREST SMOG TO SAN MARCOS DMV!!!Services: Hybrid vehicles service, Out-of-state, Initial registration, Smog certification, Emissions testing

So Cal smog is amazing.I recently had the pleasure of visiting SoCal Smog for my vehicle's smog check, and I must say, the experience was exceptional. From the moment I arrived, I was impressed by the efficiency and professionalism of the staff.One of the standout aspects of my visit was the incredible speed at which they completed the smog check. In just ten minutes, my vehicle was inspected, tested, and deemed compliant with the smog regulations. This level of efficiency is truly commendable and made the entire process hassle-free. I greatly appreciated not having to wait for an extended period, as time is often a precious commodity in our busy lives.Overall, I highly recommend SoCal Smog for anyone in need of a smog check. Their impressive speed, knowledge, and friendliness made my experience not only efficient but also enjoyable. I left their facility feeling satisfied, knowing that I had received top-notch service from a team that genuinely cares about their customers.
