Bob was very sweet and helpful with any questions I had. Been coming here for a few years now and he is definitely one to trust and a fair price. I was able to take a brief walk while he did my smog check and I appreciate that! read more

Great service! Oil was bone dry. Was taught how to check and fill my oil the right way. Met a mechanic that checked to see if he had the oil I needed in his truck to help out. Very nice. read more

I used this smog station for many years and he started out being a nice guy. Then all of a sudden, he became a disrespectful unprofessional sensitive joke. He refused to smog my vehicle, even though I have been going to him for years. I even made an appointment with him and woke up early to get there and be the first one for an inspection. He started raising his voice and yelling at me and took a step towards me. That's when I let him know if he takes one more step I'm gonna knock his ass out. Don't waste your time here when there are several other places with professional customer service, and technicians that will assist you. I will never take any one of my vehicles or recommend this place anymore. I am completely disgusted by his actions and unprofessional demeanor when I simply went to him for a smog check. This place is an absolute joke. read more

We came to ABC smog to get our smog check done, and the service was relatively quick and easy. We handed over the car keys and were shown some chairs to sit and wait while the work was being done. We had to wait about 30 min since there was someone else in front of us in line, but the actual smog check probably took about 15-20 min. The smog check cost $60 - note that debit or cash are recommended payment methods since there is 3% fee for credit card. Overall, this was quick, easy, and affordable. I would come back again! read more

ABC Smog Check delivered excellent service from start to finish. I requested a smog check for my Prius, and Bob was extremely punctual, professional, and friendly. The entire process was smooth and efficient, and I truly appreciated the quality of service provided. Best of all, the total price was only $60--amazing value for the level of care and reliability you get here. If you're looking for quality, value, and dependable service, I highly recommend ABC Smog Check! read more

I've been going to ABC Smog for 5 years now . Bob is amazing , fast, friendly ,and affordable. He's a one man show and gets your car in and out . Best place in North County. read more

Just went in to schedule a smog and Bob took me took me right away since there wasn't too many customers. I'm sure he was busy though cus there was a bunch of parked cars. he's very friendly and customer oriented. Hard working and all the customers like and respect him. He deserves all the business and more. Very pleasant experience and fairly priced. read more

ABC SMOG is an excellent smog service shop. The owner's attention to detail with both vehicles and customers is rare and much appreciated, especially in today's world where it's often lacking in many businesses. This is one of the main reasons my wife and I have been returning for years--and will continue to do so. read more

Bob is the best! I don't know if I just show up at the right time or I just get lucky. As soon as I got here, he was wrapping up with another happy customer. Then, he pulled my Sprinter in and got started. This is my 5th or 6th time here over the last few years bringing my vehicles here for emissions testing. This is a no frills place, but Bob is friendly, straightforward, stand up guy. Great value. No bs. Highly recommend. read more

ABC Smog - Mercedes Sprinter at ABC Smog Emissions Test Shop - Smog Check Stations Near Me - Oceanside, California

Very impressed. We had gone to another smog station nearby, but they were not STAR certified and recommended ABC Smog. We did not have an appointment. It was relatively early and Bob immediately started the process on our car. We didn't have to wait very long and he gave us $10 off. Highly recommend as a STAR certified smog test station. read more

Bob, the owner, is amazing, and he is so helpful. Very kind man. I been going to him and ONLY him for 6 years.

Bob the owner is a very kind man. We were advised after showing up to make an appointment as he was so busy. We came back at an appointment time and he waited on us and gave my car a check over and it needed oil. Also, I had issues opening the hood. He found the problem and he fixed it for us. No charge. Also he instructed me how to properly open my hood so next time I'll be successful. He loves what he does and it shows in the way he does his business. He goes extra mile. He's very busy very well like businessman here in Oceanside would highly recommend him. read more

I would highly recommend this place. No phone call, went in there on a Saturday and Bob was the guy helping me was super cool and polite and got everything done super fast. Met a cool guy as I was waiting and talked to him. Overall a great experience. Bob had great customer service. read more

Wow!!! I am so glad I went here!! Bob is fantastic!! My wife took her explorer in for a smog check and Bob got her in and out. Bob is so nice and friendly I will def come here for every smog check. He was so nice to my wife and she was real happy and that's all that matters Thanks again Bob I hope you have a great day! Love this place!! read more

Bob was wonderful to work with. I was able to call ahead, book a time, and was seen right away when I arrived. He explained the process and the time it would take. I'll be returning for my next service. read more

If I could, I'd give more than 5 stars. I called ahead and was able to get in the same day. Bob did not only do the service requested, he also gave me a crash course on how to maintain my car properly. After telling him my issues with the car I bought a couple weeks ago he even went out his way and called someone to make sure the mileage on the car was correct after everything sounded a bit sketchy with my car. I'll definitely be coming back to him! I already recommended him to all my friends. I feel more safe in my car now thanks to him. Price is definitely fair. Instead of a tip he wanted me to bring over some German food, since I just moved here from Germany. Bob you were amazing, thank you for everything!!! read more

No wait Very courteous Enjoyed his banter and the key chain Fair price Convenient location read more

Super friendly manager, Bob, answered any questions I had. The price isn't expensive and the process was really quick. 10/10 would recommend to anyone looking for a smog , he even got me in the same day I called :) read more

Great service. Fair prices. Best guy around for smog service. You won't be disappointed.

5 stars mostly for the owner, Bob. He is a fantastic business owner and has a legit willingness to be truthful about whatever questions you may or may not have. So much so that another Smog business referred me to him when their guy wasn't there and I'm glad they did. 10/10 stars, would recommend. Tell your husband, tell your wife, tell you friends and go to this place. Also! He does military discount and is very appreciative of service members. Which is always nice nowadays.. Cheers! read more

The best smog station you can go to. Just like the other reviews, Bob is customer service friendly and knows what he's doing. Thank you Bob!

Bobs the man! Super helpful, friendly and honest and smogs all my cars/trucks! His prices even on older cars beats anybody around when others try and gouge you. And he Just saved my family from buying a supposed low milage truck that showed double the milage 2 smogs prior!! Thank you Bob! See you soon! read more

There is really no other place to go to have your smog check done. Bob at ABC was responsive, quick, informative, and reasonably priced. I got in without a wait, after work, and he's open until 7 which is more convenient than most other spots. 30 minutes in and out for a 2005 Pathfinder. What's better? I got great food recommendations from Bob as well that I can't wait to try out. read more

Amazing customer service! Bob is Very friendly and such a sweet guy! He even bought us lunch while we waited, and attached a cross with a prayer on it to my key ring, little did he know how much I needed that! only place I will ever bring my car to be smogged and will recommend this place to everyone I know. read more

Once again, Bob's your man if you're in search of the Best smog technician out there! He will always do a fantastic job! Thank you again Bob for taking such great care of all our cars & us. read more

Called at 6PM when they close at 7PM to ask if they had availability that night. I spoke with Bob and he said that he could smog test my car at 7:15PM. Not only did he accept me after hours, but he provided me with a discount and a $10 coupon for the future. The staff was quick and friendly. read more

The guy that owns the place is the reason for the five stars!! Such a kind and trustworthy guy. He knows what he's doing and he's fairly quick. He honestly made my day by slipping a little cross keychain onto my keys as he was giving them back. He didn't do that with every customer so it's not like a pushy thing I think he had heard me on the phone with my parents and it meant so much to me! This place is where I'll always go and refer others to as well. read more

Great help super friendly and worked quick. Highly recommend this place. As long as I'm in Oceanside I won't take my car anywhere else

I've taken all of my cars here and I love this place. Bob is really honest and helped me when it took me 3 months to reset the computer on my car's exhaust system with a drive cycle. I left him my car while I was at work, I didn't get off until after closing time and he was fine with that. I got there, my car had passed, he didn't charge me extra for any extra work or hassle and even had me come back the next day to pay. All he asks is that if I find any strays, he'd like 3 kittens. Hahaha Great guy! Great place. Won't charge you if your computer isn't ready for the test. read more

great prices, reliable not shifty at all and def knew his stuff andddddddd i was in and out of there locality split!

Bob's is a great funny guy friendly pricing is great fast service I will recommend my family and friends to him Thank you for the Speedy Smog read more

I'm back to get all 3 of my cars smog checked by Bob. 2 Years ago Bob helped me by identifying why my 2003 Mini Cooper was failing a smog check at another company. He knew within 2 minutes that it was the Gas cap O-ring. He replaced it at no-charge! Well, he now has my smog check business for life! Thank you again Bob! read more

If I could give this shop more stars, I would. I am seriously impressed by the customer service I received today. This isn't a shop that needs to be fake nice to up-sale you, there is no up-sale option. I was just treated like family. While I waited, the manager helped me get quotes for my tires. He saw I was about to get scammed for some undisclosed used tires, while I shopped near by. I heard him asking other shops to give him their best price. In addition, he had family bring him in a pint of ice cream. He served me two scoops to enjoy myself. He noticed my car was missing a vacuum tube and replaced it for me. Didn't charge me or promote a mechanic. Best smog experience ever. read more

I was referred to Bob by the amazing auto registration women in Oceanside off of Mission Blvd. From the time I arrived Bob was very kind and attentive. He took notice to the fact that my doggie was with me and offered him water upon my arrival. He communicated how many cars were in front of mine and how long it would take (only 15 minutes but I appreciated his communication so that I could decide what to do with my time). He got my car going and I was back on my way to the registration place to finish up my morning. I was in and out, it was more than affordable, and Bob is awesome!! read more
