Owner was friendly and service was fast. I really appreciate that I didn't have to sit around and wait as I have in the past at other smog stations. Will definitely go back in the future. read more

The employee that assist us was very attentive and listening to what I needed and very polite. I will come here again.

We've been using Peter Smog for the last 8ish years. He's always kind and helpful. Sure, you could go somewhere cheaper but Peter is an honest man and I like giving back to our small businesses in Stockton. Thank you Peter! read more

Last week I needed a smog... It was my first for this car. I didn't know where to bring it and this place was recommended. Great place! Fast and business like friendly. Environment I felt safe there too. read more

Always polite & friendly. Fast reliable service at a reasonable price. I've been coming here for over 5yrs, bringing my 3 vehicles & have never once had any issues. If you're looking to get your ride in & out as fast as possible without worrying if you're gonna get ripped off, this is the place for you read more

This place is a one-man band. It appears whenever it's slow or whatever, he just closes up. I went at around 4 p.m. today, and it was closed up tight, shutters down. I don't know if he's still in business or not. But, if he doesn't keep regular business hours, he might as well be closed. (This was not during the recent heat wave.) read more

I was charged 70 dollars for a star test ! Other places charge only 45 dollars. I got ripped off.

Great smog place, fast and clean, prices are very reasonable, I recommend this place!!!!!!

I have 3 vehicles and I smog them all right here and have been doing so for years. In fact, I have never used another smog station since Ive lived in Stockton. Ive never had a need to and quite frankly dont want to go anywhere else. This is a great place. These days its very hard to find local businesses or business in general that treat you well and do great business. So when i find a place. I stick with them. Im not someone that runs around looking for the cheapest price or the closest place. I look for companies that do great business, especially local companies as I believe that local companies should have the support of the community first. When you walk into the small lobby here. You are greeted by the very nice, and cultured owner. Not only is he a very polite guy, but he welcomes a good conversation with you when he is not busy. Definitely not like many of these businesses that only want to take your money and get you out the door as quickly as possible. You fill out and sign the receipt and this guy gets straight to work. All of my vehicles are newer so they dont require being hooked up to the machine and only takes about 10 minutes, but people should realize that older vehicles still need to be hooked up to the machine and the process does take a little longer. read more

I hate this time of year. It's expected to be 105 today in Stockton. My make up is melting and my automobile registration is due... and had to get a TEST ONLY this time. My car.... oh... my car. I love that little thing. Races through the Altamont... passes like no other. Take the targa top off and think I look like hot shit. Literally.... in 105 degrees. I have the worst luck with smogs and O2 sensors. I usually don't pass a smog, have a couple hundred dollars in repairs... attempt another smog and pray for a miracle. This year, I walked into Peter's shop, said, 'Hi Peter! ready to fail me, AGAIN?' And I must note the reason why I go to Peter is because of All-American Muffler next door. If you have similar problems with your little racer, then check your car in with Peter, run next door to All-American Muffler and tell them your story. NO... they don't want to hear about your latest 'deal' at Macy's, or how your new pair of high heels are killing you. They have always resolved my issues to result in a 'PASS'. Peter said to me, 'if you don't run your car too hard, then you should have no problem passing today'. My husband about laughed his ass off. I followed with,' what do you mean, 'run hard'? Peter then went on to say, 1. staying below 3000 RPMs 2. proper shifting (this is where I developed the guilty expression on my face) 3. blah blah blah... I was pretty much NOT expecting to pass after all of that. This little auto circle is my little secret. If you're driving really fast on Hammer Lane, headed east and approaching Crack Alley... oops, I mean Tam O'Shanter, you've passed it. It's that quick. And I would say that there are probably about 6 or 7 businesses in this little circle. Peter is an honest man. I've been dealing with him for 4 smogs now. That's probably 6-7 tests. He never fusses around..... he finished testing my car in about 25 minutes this morning! ***please note... I know that I have reviewed this business. WTF happened to the original???? read more

Peter was very helpful, and got me in and out very fast. This was my first time there, but I plan to go back next time I need this done.

One of the nicest guys you'll ever meet especially for Stockton, and one of the most comfortable couches in all the world to sit in while he takes a very few minutes to do your smog. Thanks Peter for years and years of great service on all our cars. read more

See all

Quick, efficient and well priced. Definitely returning for my next smog check.

No customer service at all, the tone in which the owner talks to not professional. Don't give this business your money

Man, don't you hate it when DMV sends you your registration renewal like months in advance then you put it away and basically forget about it? I just had this twinge that I'd missed my D(as in DMV) day. And I did! Late fees and oh brother I have to get it smogged. Where to go! I called Bob, if Bob doesn't know, no one will know. Bob is my husband and when it comes to mechanical things, well, he knows his stuff. So, called Peter. Not Busy; good. Like a minute away from my office; good. Pulled in the lot and all 3 stalls were filled but he still got me out in 15 minutes; fantastic! Best part; passed! read more

Lmao!! I'm reading all these comment and it's just funny because most smogs that I went to pass with flying colors!! Peter b!tchass didn't even hook it up to the machine!! Lol he said I passed everything else but not the sticker on my headers?! What!? Lol that is the most retarded excuse that I have ever heard! But anyways I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND ANYONE TO COME HERE. So whoever reads this please take my advise and the other advises that the other 1 star says because it's TRUE! Thank you, read more

That time of year again! Let's see what happens 05 pathfinder!!

I have been using Peter's Smog Center for over seven years. Even when my vehicle didn't pass he took it upon himself to help me get a cheap repair to pass it. Over all he is able to give a affordable, honest smog service to every customer and is a family shop. I highly recommend him. Chris read more

I needed a place at the last minute, needed to get it done in a hurry so I can make another commitment in less than 30 minutes. Had me in and out and I never told him I was in a rush, was a real nice man, exceeded expectations. Found him due to YELP reviews and he met the hype. read more

Peter Smog Center - Smog Check Stations Near Me - Stockton, California

In and out with my 28ft RV. I'll be back in two years. Or sooner for my other vehicle.

We're at a point where we are over our monthly car payments and ripping the benefits of owning your car 100%, all three. But it's also the time when high mileage vehicles run into issues associated with wear and tear, one being smog check. We go to Peters Smog because we know from experience that this guy is honest and truthful, not a crook like the others who has a repair shop in the cover of a smog check, just to fail you and charge you a considerable chunk of your your vehicles worth, to fix a problem that does not exist. Its a blessing to have found this place. Putting in this review for others to get the same. Peter's Smog service is worth it. read more

When we have to smog, this is our place. He's honest and straightforward with any repair recommendations. Very friendly. Glad to have good guys like this around town. read more

Not a bad spot. I have been here in the past. Had to get my mom's car smogged at a Test Only Site. It failed the first time. So I had to take it to the T & N Auto Repair across the way from them and get them to adjust stuff to it. They took it back to his spot and walah.. it passed. He was pretty cool about it. I think it was done in like 20 minutes MAX. They have some nice leather couches inside to wait. Also have a TV as well... In total it cost me $70.00 for the Smog Check. read more

Peter Smog Center - Smog Check Stations Near Me - Stockton, California

This is my goto smog shop for all my cars throughout the years. I start by calling ahead to check how busy he is and then I head out the door. His location is behind a row of other shops. I park in front and then he takes my car and my dmv paper and a few minutes later I am all set. Great experience every time. read more

Pete is amazing, very friendly, professional, and efficient. Best Smog Center in town

He failed the smog. We went to another shop and it was passed w/o an issue. We came back for the refund of the certificate fee that was charged ahead of time but he refused to give it back. The issue is how can he failed the smog base on his "visual inspection" when all other items were passed by the state's computer. Thanks for the service and you can keep the fee. We won't have my business again. read more

I went to Peter Smog based on positive Yelp reviews, and I was not disappointed. It turned out that my truck had an improper catalytic converter installed some years ago, and could not be certified (they have to check for that now). Peter tried very hard to confirm whether the converter would be ok. I also had a problem with the connection to the ignition computer. He tried multiple times to get it to work, and even confirmed it wasn't his equipment by bringing another truck in and hooking it up. He told me that if I came back after the repairs, he would retest free. I will always use Peter Smog Check.I read more

We went to this shop because of the reviews. When we went, the shop said all smog check would be $30 but ended up being $60+ out the door. For anybody who's curious how the price is. read more

Great service, honest and dependable. I highly recommend Peter for your smog service. He is quick and reliable. My car was finished within 15 minutes. I have been going there for my smog services for a long time and have always been satisfied. read more

Brought my Honda in for a smog last week. It was really fast, in and out, which is great for someone like me with a busy schedule. I guess the owner is the main guy who does the smogs here and he was super friendly and made me feel confident that he was trustworthy with my car. I feel like some of the other shops can take advantage of you especially if your a girl and add on extra costs or tests. Thankfully this is not the case here and the owner is very honest and clearly explained the entire process to me. I can say overall that it was affordable and an easy process and I would recommend this place over the others any day. And yes, my car passed. Ps the couches are so comfy, you won't want to get up. read more

I was in and out in less than 15 minutes!!! It was a VERY reasonable charge for the SMOG! As a woman I truly appreciate honest mechanics. Peter is a man of integrity and I will continue to bring all of my cars to him for smog service!!! read more
