    Went in for a smog check. It only took 10 minutes, the price was reasonable, better than a lot of places. The service tech was very helpful and knowledgeable. I was in and out with no issues, and it passed. They even send the smog certificate to the DMV and give you a copy.

    That dreaded 'Stop' before I could pay my annual car registration online forced me to scramble for…read morea certified smog check station and this one, at the intersection of Chicago and 3rd wasn't too far from home. Be forewarned, the basic fee has taxes and stuff that walked it up to $77 out the door, which was disclosed up front, so kudos there. I also made a reservation online but the guy took me early when I arrived, and in about 15 minutes he announced my car passed and provided the paperwork and scanned myDMV form. It's imperative that you bring that to your session. Nice guy, very friendly and professional. They offer a $32 service for expediting payment for the registration same day, but if you have a computer at home, you won't need that. All-in-all, a quick appointment, and unavoidable, but I would definitely come back if or when (probably next year). Pro tip: Fill up your tank and use a fuel injector cleaner from Autozone or O'Reilly's. Most importantly though, if your check engine light is on, you won't pass.

Pros. *There were several forms of posted literature regarding services offered, expectations of the businesss and what the customer could expect. Very good job! *Sam explained the life expectancy of a smog check per DMV regulations. *I scheduled an appointment for 11am, arrived ar 1030 am for a smog check. I arrived early and appreciated, that despite the busy customers, I was serviced by my appointment time. *I can attest that you are able to see your vehicle serviced (if you choose) through a window while you wait. *Water available to drink while you wait. *Service was efficient, quick and Sam did a great job explaining the DMV processing. *You are able to leave same day with new registration & stickers. *Excellence in quality of service to the smog. I am pleased, and currently awaiting my stickers in the mail (as I had already paid at DMV and just needed smog) Cons Restroom needed cleaning. Myself and an older woman both felt uncomfortable at the sight. In all fairness, this is a smog place, not department store. Still, she was elderly and I have disabilities. Clean facilities help us. *Pricing was not clear. On the website was a price that matched a posted paper in the office. However, on the official receipt were additional charges I was not made aware of until payment. Overall, they did a very good job. This business had a constant flow of customers and I could see why. I too, will be a returned customer for my next required smog.
