They said as advertised it wouldn't be a long wait/time…read more They had me waiting for over an hour while servicing two other vehicles who showed up later than me. I guess since I'm not a regular or a friend, I was treated differently They were hung up on trying to see what other issues without running the smog. I don't know what the hold up was or if they were unfamiliar with the truck. Or if I was bothering them But after all that, they ended up failing the truck and also charging 80 dollars. Surprising since other smog shops won't charge you if you fail. The only highlight was the female technician took the time to explain the results. The others seemed sarcastic/annoyed and more interested in my truck and seeing if I'll sell rather than helping me with the situation.

Which isn't a problem, but boy were these guys happy to tell me they'd do it illegally for 350$! Then come to find out they marked my vehicle as tampered with so no one else wanted to smog my truck cause it was "high risk". Called them again this year to give it another shot. Got a quote for 150$ smog on a 97 jeep. Other star certified shops in the area were charging 60-70 btw. Hate to bring a business down but these guys deserve it.

Not only was he an old guy, he did my smog checks BY HIMSELF, had me out in/out in 20 mins and never charged me more than $70 (OBD1) These guys here have 2-3 guys working on the 1 car, took over 45 mins and charged me $100 after trying to 1st charge me $140. Seams like they dont like doing the extra work on OBD1 so they try and scare you away by overcharging for it. Well it worked. I wont be coming back. Already found another guy who will honor my $70 old price and he too works by himself. Quality over Quantity.
