Phan's Smog Station - My 2014 Mercedes Benz C250 - Smog Check Stations Near Me - Newark, California

The best thing at this shop is Nate's customer service. I'm changing my review to 1 star because they sold me an $80 used tire that I guess had a bad repair done in the past, but no one informed me of this. I hardly drive my car, yet I've been having issues with the tire and when I took it to a tire shop they said they couldn't do a repair on it because a new repair would make it worse, since there was already an old bad repair done on it. When I called Phan's to tell them about the tire issue and how they didn't tell me about the bad repair, the old man here answered the phone and cut me off in a rude voice saying "you break it you pay for it" and he cut me off mid-sentence and hung up on me. Very rude and I guess I was scammed. read more

This place has been in Newark forever & i have used them since back in high school days. Staff is super nice and helpful. There's also a tire shop attached & they'll plug a nail out very quick for you. read more

My car had a flat and I was running on a spare. I called the shop and they had a replacement for me and was willing to save it for me for the weekend but I was able to stop by during my lunch! Service was quick and easy, everyone was so nice and helpful there. Will definitely come back again. Thank you! read more

Great and honest service, I've use this Smog Station since 2006 . The price has not changed since then.

These guys are the bees knees! They work hard, fast and they're HONEST. Honesty is something that's incredibly hard to find in the automotive service industry. I 100% support them and recommend their services to people all the time. read more

Nhat does great work and I know I can trust him. The shop doesn't accept reservations, so you might have to wait depending on the day.

We got a flat tire in Newark due to an open, broken unmarked manhole. We called Phan's at 5:10p, 50 mins before he was about to close and he accommodated us when we arrived. Fast, friendly, caring service, at a great price. Got out of there in under 20 mins. Total Godsend. Highly recommend. read more

Been going to Phan's now for some time and they have honestly been great and welcoming every time I come in! Only have used them for Smog, but with them being open 7 days a week it makes it super convenient to get your car in and out pretty quick!!! Would Definity recommend these guys! read more

I always have the best service either from getting my smog checks or tires replaced or repaired. I sincerely love this family owned business. Thank you for always treating me kindly with integrity. read more

Easy to get a quick smog test here, with everyone in the shop working together to get you in and out quickly. $60 is a fair price for an older car and I was done in about 15 minutes. read more

Amazing service. Had flat tire and Mr. phan fixed it super quick. Quality worksmanship. Highly recommended.

This place was amazing! I went there on my lunch break to get a smog. I pulled in and forgot I had caught a flat the night before, and the guys from the next station tire place came out and fixed my tire while I got a smog. The knowledge of the smog tech was so helpful in telling me what my printout scores meant. The price was right! I got more than I expected and I made it back to work on time! Highly recommend! I will be back! read more

I had a nail in my tire they were fast and friendly. I was in and out quickly they saved the day! thank you!!

This is the local spot! Fast, honest and efficient. I don't go anywhere else but here. Watch for 10 mins and you'll know this guy is next level. It can be absolutely packed and in 10-15 mins he's starting on your car. Great prices on tires too if you just need a used replacement or are just low on cash. My go to place. read more

Very friendly and professional service! I came here for a smog check and it took less than half an hour total. The guy who handled my car took good care with the car. He was very friendly and treated me with respect. We chatted for a bit, just enough to feel comfortable but not so much that it took up too much time (basically chatted while paperwork was printing and payment was processing). Other people who were there at the same time seemed happy with their service too. There are socially distanced chairs and everyone wears masks. They are open 9am-6pm 7 days a week, no appointment needed for a smog check. I showed up on Thursday around 3pm and didn't have to wait long. I'll be back here in case I need a smog check again and highly recommend anyone else to come here too! read more

Gave them a call, said they were available so I just drove right in! Was greeted warmly, guided where to park the care, and the STAR Smog test/check was taken care of within 20 or so minutes. This was my first time, yet they treated me very well. Paid w/ debit, no issues! Test was $50 ish, Certificate for DMV (electronic send) was another $9 ish. Total less than $60 for my dmv smog check. Will be back again! read more

In and out in 15 minutes. Nice owner with a smile plastered on his face, takes care of everything from smog to transmitting the certificate to DMV. Reasonably priced and close to home. Nothing wrong whatsoever. read more

Just registered my car and needed a car smog and found this place near my work. I was helped by Tri, he was super friendly and the service was QUICK and affordable and the information was sent directly to the DMV! Well if I knew smogging was this easy I wouldn't mind doing this more often! I noticed they also offer TIRE services too!! So definitely coming back for that too, when the time comes! Not much of a waiting area, there are a few seats and tables but you're not there too long so no need to get comfy! You'll be out of there in no time! read more

Bought 2 brand new tires from this place exactly 2 months ago. Not even 1000 miles on them. They were squeaking so I decided to take my car to wheel works to see what's wrong with it. I came back here to see what he could do for me but he just offered to sell me some used tires. Definitely not a place I will ever come back to. Never have I ever bought BRAND NEW tires and had to replace them before I can even get another oil change. Never coming back here again. read more

Had a nail in my tire and was helped immediately at Phan's smog station. Only took 10 min or so and only cost $20! I'll definitely be back to buy my tires here when needed. read more

Needed to get my smog checked right away so I called Phan's. They were able to accommodate me same day, gave me a great price, and handled everything! Didn't even need my paperwork...they sent everything to the DMV on my behalf. Very fast service, very polite encounter with the team, 10/10 would use again. read more

Phan's smog station is a great place to go for quick smog or new tires. I recently took my sons truck by to get smogged. Highly recommended by my dad who lives around the corner, and with an great rating on Yelp I was definitely coming here. When I arrived I had two people ahead of me. He was just finishing up with one and there was another just heading in as I waited on deck. Overall I was waiting for about 20 min. Very quick, in and out without any hassle. There is a small waiting area right in the front of the garage with four seats and some magazines. In my 20 minute wait I watched as a Mercedes pulled in behind me to get four tires changed and was in and out even quicker than I was. The smog was $60 and the service was excellent. They are a great group who work well together and get customers in and out quickly. Phan's is the go to place in Newark. read more

Family owned business. Came in with a flat tire and asked for a good deal and they said they would help me out since I am a college student. Gave me a good price and was finished in less than 10 minutes. Another guy had to push his car from a mile away and the people at this smog station helped him. Such good service. read more

I am basing this review off of a tire patch service experience. I ran over a screw and needed to fix the flat in my new tires. I called ahead to confirm what they could do for me and the person I spoke with was courteous after answering right away. Once I arrived, I was advised to get the whole plugged up which only took 5 minutes. In and out! These guys are fast and friendly and I plan on going back for my smog test and tire service. read more

Got a flat they repair and rotate our tires in like 15 minutes. Pretty awesome and the price was much cheaper than others.

These guys are great to deal with A++++. I have been bringing my cars to them for years and have never had a bad experience and will never go any other place. They are quick, in and out if there is no line waiting. Definitely worth the wait read more

Called in during the holiday 4th of July and my tire was flat. I actually ordered my tire from Walmart and they couldn't do the installation till Tuesday. So I called to see if they were opened and if they were able to put my tire in. And yes he told me to come on in. I was so glad they were opened and I was in and out. Thank you guys so much. Definitely lifesavers and super cheap too. Thank you!!!!! Will definitely recommend them. read more

This is the best place to go. I got a flat tire and they fixed it right away they are responsive and professional!

I hate CA smog... but, we have to get it done every other year, so here we go. I researched different locations since I wanted to run and get both of my cars smogged quickly without wasting my day waiting around. I've been driving past Phan's Smog Station for most of my life, and decided to make my way over here as soon as they opened on a Saturday. There was one other car infront of me, but as soon as the big Bolo looking asian dude (I believe his name is Actor) finished up the car, he pulled my car in and proceeded the smog. 15 minutes go by, fill out the receipt, pay $59, received the "PASS"print out and I was on my way. This business is exactly what it is... a smog shop. Bring your car, make sure you dont have any check engine lights or a brand new battery, drive up, smog your car, pay and you're on your way. EXACTLY what I was looking for! Ended up bringing my 2nd car right after... bang bang, DONE! Thanks Actor for your professionalism, efficiency, and for not wasting my saturday morning! TIP: If your car is lowered like mine, the driveway pulling in and the other driveway to pull out is a bit of a challenge, so good luck! read more

My uncle owns this spot. He's quick to check the smog and also patches and changes tires.

Wonderful wonderful wonderful place! We got a nail in our tire. Last time, the 4S shop costed us $400 to change the tire. But this time! We are luck to come to Phan's Smog Station. Nate pulled out the nail super fast and fixed the problem in minutes with great value. In addition, he went ahead educating us about lots of valuable tire related knowledge. This place saved our day. Thank you Nate! read more

Very disrespectful towards female customers aka me. I am assuming it was the owner. Anyway, I needed to purchase a new tire. It was Sunday late afternoon, and most auto shops were already closed. I saw this was still open so I called to inquire more info because noob here..duh. Guy on the phone asked me what tire size I needed and I responded I don't really know but can I bring the car by and have you check it. This was a mistake on my part; I should have checked the tire size that is pretty much imprinted on the tire itself. Silly me. Well, the guy said yea and that they were closing in an hour. I assured him that I would be there way before their closing time as I lived 10 mins away. My father and I arrived at their shop. An old man, who seemed to be the owner, walked toward us. I told him I wanted to buy new tires. He checked the size on my tire, and walked towards the area that I am assuming where they keep old and new tires. He walks back out and asks my dad to come follow him. My dad, whose english skill is bare minimum, tells me to go. I am about to go--this is where he makes his sexist comment-- when that old man says "No no, you stay here. You girl. He come." uh. What did you just say?? Not only did you embarrassed me, but you just made another example of society's set divided views of males and females. Thank you. Your service is no longer needed. read more

My usual smog check station isn't open Saturdays anymore, so I did a Yelp search, and checked out Phan's. I needed to use a STAR station, and they are certified for that. When I arrived, another car was getting smogged, so I parked on the street in front of the shop. As I was getting out of my car, one of the mechanics came over and said "you're next", and handed me a form on a clipboard to fill out. Plenty of seating outside. Soon my car is driven inside the shop, and undergoes testing. Around twenty minutes go by, and I get the good news that it passed. Very competitive $59.95 price. They also sell and fix tires, and are open every day of the week. I highly recommend Phan's. read more
