Great experience. Super great and fast service. Very helpful. Priced well. Will definitely only come here from now on!

Friendly, quick, and helpful! Stoked to have a reliable local smog check spot, we had a great experience and will come back.

Seriously the nicest guy! He brings out a water bottle for you and has a nice little seating area while you wait. This is my second time coming here and he is still just as sweet as last year. The last time I even came with my kids and they all got a hot wheels! Won't go anywhere else! P.S. if you go to his website, you get $10 off. read more

Best smog experience ever! Never really thought twice about getting my car smog checked, but this place made it actually enjoyable. I was done in about 5 minutes and the owner gave me water and snacks which was really nice. Highly recommend! read more

I had to go to the DMV to register my car after moving to the state. They made me leave to go get a smog check, happened to find Planet Smog and this place is awesome. Owner greeted me even while helping another customer, gave me a short wait time. He stopped traffic to make sure I got in safely, had me sit with a cold water and snack while I watched him complete the check in minutes. And made sure I got out safely as well. Dudes a quality professional. I literally downloaded this app just to make sure I gave him a stellar review. Would recommend this place to everyone. read more

Thanks for the quick smog check, hospitality and great service. Was much easier to access compared to other areas due to lack of space and too many cars. read more

Fantastic service. Fast and easy. Kind owner. Highly recommend. And got snacks and water while waiting.

Best customer service I've had in a while! The attendant was so nice , he offered me a nice indoor space to sit down, a cold water bottle from the fridge , hand sanitizer when my car was ready, and he even stepped into the street to guide me out since there is a little bit of a blind corner. Especially since I went to two different smog shops in Mission Viejo and was treated very rude/ overpriced. This place was $69 ish for my 1999 Toyota 4Runner. I will definitely be returning here for any future smogs. read more

Wow I never thought getting my smog checked would make me so happy I came here in a panic. I needed the smog checked same day to renew my registration. He got me in immediately, no wait. Offered me refreshments while I waited and a little prize for my toddler son. We were both happy. Honestly made me feel so special and taken care of. Customer service is a million stars if I could give it! We were in and out within 15 minutes. So easy!!!!! Don't go anywhere else!!! read more

This place is OUTSTANDING! in and out in 10 minutes. The customer service here is first class.The shop is on the corner in a tight area he helps you in the driveway gives you a seat with a cold water bottle.

Another effortless smog test expertly completed by Planet Smog. I literally just showed up, he greeted me with a smile and was able to fit me in almost immediately. Professional, quick and easy. Free water and chocolate while I waited. Why would you go anywhere else?! read more

Not only was Sean was very informative (I recently moved here from Florida so I'm not used to having to get a Smog Check) but also was able to accommodate me right away as well as offered excellent customer service... I highly recommend!! Thank you Sean!! read more

I took 2 Vehicles to Sean today and he completed both Smog Tests quickly and efficiently. His honesty is above reproach, because when I returned with the 2nd vehicle he said he forgot to take the $10 off the 1st Smog Check, so he deducted it from the 2nd Test. Not many businesses would catch or admit to that! I was very impressed with the entire experience. I highly recommend visiting Sean when you need a Smog Test! read more

I will never take any of my cars anywhere else and have promised to mention Planet Smog to every person looking for a smog place in South OC. Run-down: 1. I was the first person there when they opened and was in n out in less than 5 minutes. 2. Ashkan, the owner, offers patrons a nice little work office with a desk, phone charger, and TV in case wait times ever become longer. 3. He offered me a cold bottle of water even though he knew we would be done so quickly. 5. Great location a few minutes from the freeway and the beach. 6. When I got back in my car to leave he asked if I wanted hand-sanitizer to clean my hands. I mean, this was just the cherry on the top. I've never had service like this at a smog-shop so I had to make sure I let the locals know how good of a place Planet Smog is. Thank you Ashkan for the hospitality! read more

This was the best smog check experience ever! I arrived and was immediately directed into the garage, offered a bottle of water and a snack, and in less than 5 minutes my smog was completed!

Amazing service! I needed to get a last minute smog check at the END of the day and it was not a problem. In addition to that the owner was nice, attentive, and even smiled the whole time, even though I am sure he was exhausted at the end of the day . On top of that my daughter was able to choose a Free car from the tool box/toy chest! read more

Planet Smog Check - Storefront - Smog Check Stations Near Me - San Clemente, California

Ashkan (Sean) did my smog check a couple of weeks ago and he is, by definition, a class act. I turned onto the street just as another customer was leaving, and Sean made sure to guide me safely into the bay to begin my test. He not only opened my door for me coming and going, but he has a seating area for you to wait while he completes his work. He gave me a nice, cold water bottle and Rice Krispie treat, and then finished so quickly I didn't even have time to open them! That whole process couldn't have even been 5 minutes. He made sure it was clear for me to reverse back out into the street, and I was gone just as quickly as I came. Left with a copy of my smog certificate and digital sent to the DMV. Great value, great price, and efficiency. The epitome of a 5-star business in my mind read more

I have been here in the past with an older Vanagon that I had issues with getting smogged. Two other "highly rated" smog check establishments did not want to be bothered and sent me away.
