They were able to get me in for a SMOG check right away and had it passed within 20 min. The sandwich place across the took longer to make two sandos and fries. read more

They were great! They were super fast too! From the time I walked in, to the time it took for the smog test, it was super fast. The lady at the front counter was also super nice and friendly. You can't beat the price either! My smog and certificate only cost me $45!! I will definitely be going back to this place!! read more

I was recommended to this company through neighborhood garage who I always felt confident in working with. I learned that good honest mechanics stick together and they don't try to cheat you or try to do actually that you don't really need. The master mechanic explained to me everything that was needed and didn't try to help me pay for anything that I didn't need to. I will definitely use this business again for my other vehicles. read more

Unexpectedly fast. Friendly, clean waiting room. No complaints! Note that there is a DMV fee on top of coupon price for smog check.

Great place for a cheap smog check! Not much else to say other than they are fast and cheap! read more

The folks and family at Master Tech are simply amazing. In all my years of driving, registering vehicles and providing the obligatory smog check, I've never had such a positive experience. From the 20 second phone call to get me booked same afternoon, to check in, to waiting a very brief few minutes, to check out, staff was friendly, courteous, efficient. Lobby, chairs, clean and comfortable. I was in and out in under 20 minutes. I didn't even have time to finish the text I was sending. Really, I was just amazed. Highly recommended! Call them! read more

Great business! Fast and efficient. Nice and comfortable waiting room. Reasonable prices. However, watch out for the vicious dog.

I've taken two of my cars here this year and my experience with them was fantastic! The tech actually saved me an $800 expense from the dealership because he told me why my check engine light was on AND printed out the flow chart on how to fix it. Long story short, all the dealership needed to do was clean the part and not fully replace it. I originally picked this place because of the coupon, but I was so happy with my experience that I chose not to use it all. They were were patient and helpful with me coming back several times to check if my sensors were ready. The smog test itself was super fast. Highly recommend read more

If you like to support a local business in Carmichael, this shop provides great work and customer service. I will be returning to have my vehicle oil changed at this location. read more

First time here and wasn't disappointed. The receptionist,Sierra, was very engaging, friendly, and polite. I was the only customer and she said rainy days are typically slow for smogs. Luckily for me. I was out the door within 20 minutes or less. I enjoyed talking to Sierra. Their was memorabilia on the walls of the owners travels which brought back many memories. Definitely coming back! Also, got a deal when I checked in from the yelp app . Thank you! read more

Wow! The service here is very fast. When I came here they said it will be done in 20 mins because someone is ahead of me. Well, I got done in less than 10 mins!

I just got my smog check done here. I bought it on Groupon and made an appointment. But honestly, this place has probably the best deal in town even without the Groupon! $25 is a great deal. Place is clean and neat. Everyone there is super great to work with and the process was really fast and easy. Whenever I go to car places I'm always afraid of shady owners. But Shannon is great in helping you understand everything. I was in and out within 20 minutes. 10/10 recommend. read more

Friendly and awesome customer service. Definitely coming back here for my next smog.

This was seriously THE BEST experience one could have getting a smog check! We were the only customers in the tiny lobby but I saw 2 cars in the garage being worked on. The friendly lady in charge of this family-owned/operated business greeted us right away, and I handed over my DMV paperwork and key. About 5 minutes later she gave me the good news that the car passed and rang me up. Talk about friendly, fast, and efficient service! But not only that, for the smog check and certificate ($8) it came out to $33!!!! **PRO TIP: Check-in on Yelp and get your smog for $25 *** Highly recommended! read more

I was prepared to love this place after I read the reviews, couldn't wait for my cup of complimentary coffee while I waited and was even more happy it only cost $25 with a Yelp check-in. I called ahead to schedule a time and was told to come in any time. My expectations were dashed from the moment I walked in. There was a hand written sign above the pictured coffee bar that read $.50. Not free at all, & very tacky. The girl at the desk had black raccoon eye make-up running down her face and was not friendly to say the least. She asked me if I had an appointment, though I had been told moments earlier on the phone, I didn't need one. She made me feel as though she was doing ME a favor, instead of me spending money with THEIR business. She took my information and asked several times the make and model of my car. I mentioned the Yelp price check-in to her, as she most certainly was not going to volunteer that information to me. She printed the receipt, gave me a pen and asked me to sign. As I was signing it, I voiced my concerns about my car passing, at which point she informed me, oh wait, my car didn't qualify for the Yelp price. She said it was "clearly stated on Yelp" that the year of my car was not included. I didn't see that info listed and she didn't explain to me where it said that. I asked her to honor the price that I had signed for and she began to argue with me, even though it was her mistake. I assume it was Shannon, (who has amazing reviews), yell from the back of the office, to honor it. For this fact and this alone, I gave one star. $25 + $9.50 is a small price to pay for a smog certificate, but with the awful front desk customer service, I would have rather paid more to be treated kindly as a human being and customer. What a shame. Maybe keep Shannon in the front and reconsider who you have as the face of your business. read more

I was referred to Master Tech Smog & Repair by Marco Muffler on Fulton Ave, saying they were a good, reliable place to get diagnostics done on a failed smog test. I took my 1997 4Runner there and they took the time to let my 4Runner warm up sufficiently, then correct the 1 small faulty hose, and it then passed with flying colors!!! The smog test place I had originally taken it to, just rushed my car through with a cold engine, saying it needed several repairs including 2 hoses, and a probable catalytic converter replacement, after just letting my vehicle run for only a few minutes!!! Won't go there ever again!! My recommendation for smog stations and repairs if needed, is definitely Master Tech Smog & Repair at 5851 Fair Oaks Blvd in Carmichael. Honest, efficient, responsible, and just some really nice people!!!! read more

Super easy and friendly! Got me in same day for a smog appointment and were super speedy with the service! Friendly staff and a cute, comfortable waiting area. Would use again! read more
