Sean: so quick, professional, knowledgeable, and you get a $10 discount if you show him his website coupon when you checkout. A very nice man too!! read more

This place is EXACTLY as people have rated it!!! Sean was delightful, fast, efficient, no hassles, and very affordable for smog check. I was out in less than 15 minutes; didn't have enough time to even send an email!!!! . Don't go anywhere else in south OC. read more

Fastest Smog Check. Excellent customer service.Ashkan was the best. Offered us water and hand sanitizer. Excellent Service

What can I say that hasn't already been said? Excellent, speedy service. I was in and out in 10 minutes. Sean is hospitable; from the bottled water and hand sanitizer to turning the car around so that I could safely drive out instead of backing out into traffic. It's the small things that make a small business excellent. I highly recommend Sean and Planet Smog Check n Repair. You'll not be disappointed. To the gentleman that gave a one-star review due to stopping in three times to find this business was closed, I highly suggest calling before showing up. Giving a business a one-star review due to your incompetence is just plain rude and negatively impacts a small business. How about leaving a review once you've actually experienced the service? Thank you, Sean, for your excellent service. read more

Amazing service! Took less than 10 minutes and made sure I knew the next steps to get my registration up to speed!

Fantastic! Super friendly, quick, efficient - can't get much better. We were in and out in 15 minutes or less (we did get there early in the day), but still. Great service all in all. read more

I have gone to Sean's smog business for years. He was formerly located at the Valero but moved here about a year ago. He is friendly, honest, and fast! I came to get my smog done with my brother and he brought out two water bottles to greet us. Smog check took 10 minutes. He is trustworthy and won't jerk you around. Highly recommend! Also, print out a coupon or check in on Yelp and get a $20 off coupon. This guy is the real deal! For some reason Yelp isn't acknowledging he has 50+ five star reviews. That doesn't happen by accident. read more

Nothing more to say that hasn't already been said. This was the EASIEST smog check experience ever. Super friendly service. I was in and out in ten minutes with a cold bottle of water to send me off! Will come back here every single time. read more

Been here several times. Great service and price. Sean is awesome!! Sean is fast and professional.

I usually hate doing car stuff but I needed a smog and this place was recommended to me. I was in and out in less than 10 minutes and the man helping me was extremely nice and accommodating. 10/10. read more

Great Service! I came in early at 9:30am and was not open. Called and I didn't leave a message. But he called me back and he left a message saying he'll be open at 10:30am. So I left to do errands and came back. Sean was just finished with a previous customer and he right away took my car in and had me sit in the waiting room as I handed him my DMV paperwork for Smog Check certification at a Star Station. He offered me a cold bottled water and I went on yelp to check in for a first time $10 discount and soon after I checked in, he was done. That was the quickest service I've ever had. He was very kind and informed me of certificate already sent DMV. I recommend him for anyone doing a smog check. Just make sure you call to see if he's open and also show the first time $10 discount before checking in. Like everyone said he offered water and hands sanitized when I left. read more

Found this place on Yelp and went the very next day for a smog check. I timed it right because when I got there, there was no wait. I was greeted with a friendly smile and brought to a waiting corner complete with a tv/screen, hand sanitizer and nice cold bottles of water. It took all of 8 minutes (I checked because I heard they were fast here :))! So impressed! On top of that, they reversed my car so I could exit easily and stood in the street to make sure no sneaky cars were zooming by. I will absolutely be coming back here and recommending others to do the same! read more

We have been here 3X and this place is the best!!! Fast, super friendly and honest!!! Talk about going the extra mile!!! Greets you with a smile immediately upon arrival, seats youand has a cold water bottle ready for you. Guides you out and even offers you hand sanitizer!!! THE BEST!!! read more

This was not only an easy experience to get my car smog checked, but it was an enjoyable one. Very friendly and caring.

I went here to get a smog check on my BMW X3 which had failed previously. Rather than charge us for a car that would fail a retest, he referred us to some great mechanics that were able to fix the malfunction. Afterwards, it passed first try! Very nice owner took us right away without appointment and even made sure we always had water and a positive experience. Super thankful for the help and resources to get my car fixed quickly and affordably. Definitely the place to go in San Clemente! read more

Sean with Planet Smog is exactly the delight to work with that all other people on here have remarked upon - wow! He greets you with a big smile and a cold bottle of water, and when done he says goodbye by supplying you with hand-sanitizer-to-go. Just a super friendly, efficient and lovely fellow who reminds you of a very pleasant, genuine host at a dinner party. Smog done in ten minutes (!) and he even turns your car around for you for easy egress back onto the street - yay! Five Stars!!!!! ***** (｡*‿*｡) read more

Great service, fast, personable. 100% will go back with our second vehicle for its smog check.

Courteous and efficient. Gave me a bottle of water. I have a Vanagon so needed a Star inspection. He is Star certified. There is another smog check on the same street and I suspect some reviews get confused between the two places. I am reviewing Planet Smog Check N Repair. read more

Sean was courteous and efficient. We brought our Mazda Miata in for a smog as a walk in, we were out of there within 15 minutes! He offered us bottled water while we waited, greeted us kindly and appreciated our business. We will always go back here , it was the best experience we have had for a SMOG. He even offered hand sanitizer and he disinfected the steering wheel for us. read more

Best place to have a smog check done! Sean's super friendly and has been smogging cars here in town for a long time.
