    My smog check was due and I usually follow my dad's recommendation for smog stations. My experiences have been meh in the past and usually I go more towards Sacramento for smog checks. I found Laguna Smog after a quick Yelp search and saw the great reviews, so I sent a Yelp message to the business to setup an appointment and a quote is offered, too. Nick (believe the owner) responded quickly and mentioned that no appointment was necessary, which was super convenient since my work schedule can be unpredictable. I appreciated that the pricing was transparent, since you may not get the chance to ask during a walk-in appointment, as the process of getting checked in can happen so quickly. I've also seen other businesses where reviewers can charged unexpectedly higher prices, as well. The shop is in a cul de sac and there's a sign to indicate where you should park. I was quickly greeted by a person (presumably Nick). He had me fill out info about my car and I provided the car key. I hung out for about 15 minutes and the smog check was done! The price was as quoted. They definitely take card and there's no extra charge for it. Service was friendly. I would highly recommend coming here for your smog check and would definitely come again!

    Warm welcome and came with DMV paperwork, was very fast. In and out in under 30mts! Came at the right time because a few people walked in right behind so it was getting busy. The reviews are correct super clean location, smells great in the waiting room, water and restroom available. Was our first time here, but I'd consider bringing our other vehicles in when time comes for sure.

    Online it saying this location is permanently closed. Is this true? I have been going here for about 13 years. Anyone know if the owner opened a new location or is this closed for good?

    This location is still open with no changes. Shop open M-F 9:00am til 5:30pm and Saturday 9:00am til 3:00pm.

The O'Reilly auto parts store down the street told me to come here after I first went to the Toyota dealership who wanted me to wait 4 hours just to diagnose my old battery and Les Schwab told me they ended up not having the battery I needed after waiting before they even looked at my car. I called here while driving from O'Reilly and was immediately placed on hold for almost 10 minutes before they finally talked to me. I was already in their parking lot by the time they answered and they told me there was no wait to get my battery diagnosed and/or replaced so I parked and went inside. Man that was a mistake in hindsight. What was said to be no wait ended up taking roughly 2 hours total. It felt like others who came in after me for oil changes and other services were getting served faster than me while I had what I thought was just a simple battery diagnosis and replacement. They also kept telling other people over the phone they had no wait and they should be in and out within 30-45 minutes. They gave me a 30 minute quote after replacing the battery as well to make sure everything was good which felt even longer than that. I also noticed when I got home there was a brown looking spot on the battery label. From what I researched it could be an anti corrosive material and is normal or it could be a potential leak if it spreads so I'm really hoping that it doesn't already have a slow leak. Overall, from this experience alone, I honestly can't say that I'll be back anytime soon unless my new battery suddenly starts having issues while under warranty. The price was also not great at $270 for a battery that may not last as long as my original battery from when I bought my car roughly 6.5 years ago. While I'm glad they were able to see me on short notice and replaced my battery, I felt like it took an unnecessarily long time for what seemed like a quick fix. I'm mostly just upset that I was quoted no wait as I was on the phone in their parking lot then spent nearly 2 hours which ended up in me having to cancel certain plans.

One of the things I love is that they clean the car before it even goes into the wash, so it almost feels like you're getting a hand wash and a car wash combined. Then they hand dry it afterward, which makes a huge difference in how it looks when you drive away. What really keeps me coming back though is the attention to the little details. They even dry around the license plate area -- which might sound minor, but so many places skip it, and I always notice. It's one of those small things that tells you they actually care about doing a good job. The staff is friendly, everything runs smoothly, and I leave with a clean car without any stress -- which honestly is the goal. It's the kind of place where you feel comfortable trusting them with your vehicle and a clean car just hits different when someone pays attention to the details.

I personally don't come here after damage my received at the Elk Grove/Calvine location, that they refused to cover due to the age of my car. Which means I was stuck payong for the repairs. This time through, we were washing our newer Telsa without an issue in the cycle. There was however some issue with the track system we were on, as at one point when we were to turn the vehicle once on the track. We heard a loud thud type sound. As one of our wears actually popped slightly off track and came slamming back down into the system. It was so loud actually that I had to get out after and check our rim to make sure there wasn't any damage.

    My mother is 87 years old and she had her van ran into in a hit and run in the Raley's parking lot…read more The damage was minimal but the insurance company decided to total the vehicle rather than fix it and pay her off instead of repairing it. Therefore it became a salvaged vehicle. My mother was not ready to part with her most beloved van so she bought it back from the insurance company and went through all of the hassle to be able to re-register it again with DMV, including a brake and light check. That was two years ago. Then came covid. Last year she sent in her check and smog report to get her renewal but it never came in the mail. She does not use computers and for the next year could not seem to get past the recorded phone messages with DMV. Finally the DMVs opened up again so I took her to one of the offices and waited in the line that wrapped around the building with her. I was not able to actually go inside the building with her due to Covid protocols so I waited for her in the car. She notified me once she had returned to my vehicle that they had lost her break and light documents and she had to have the inspection done all over again. She tried to go back to her original brake and light place in West Sacramento. After waiting two weeks for her appointment they told he she had to leave the vehicle all day just to get a 30 minute brake and light check and the lady was very obnoxious to her. I hate people that are not kind and patient to the elderly. She takes care of my father who has dementia so she could not stay and therefore still unable to get a certificate. I looked up places on Yelp and found SMG. They take drop ins so I decided to take my mother there. We arrived there at about a quarter after nine on a Thursday morning and was instructed to turn around and get in line with the other cars waiting on the other side of the street. They were quite busy but they still were very patient and took the extra time to help my mother and they treated her just the way they would want others to treat their own mothers. By ten o'clock everything was taken care of and we were on our merry way. We can only hope DMV does not lose her certificate this time.
