Fernando, the owner, is a great guy! I've been coming here for about five years, maybe more…read more Fernando is friendly, knowledgeable, and friendly. Did I say friendly? He gets you in and out quickly, even while being friendly and conversational. It's a test only center so you can be sure he's not going to try and get you to perform unnecessary repairs. My son and I were doing some repairs on one of our vehicles, which required the battery to be disconnected. This reset the emissions readiness of the vehicle, and the onboard computer needed to evaluate the vehicle under certain driving conditions. Fernando explained what needed to be done, and my son completed the hoops and we got back in for the smog check. I definitely recommend this place!

Needed an oil change so was looking for places on Groupon and found this one that was decently…read morepriced. I decided to look on the website and found out that it was only $39.99. I'm glad I checked because sometimes Groupon can be cheap but it usually doesn't include $8.25 certificate fee and $1.75 electronic transfer fee, so you end up paying more than you thought you would. I walked in on a Saturday around 1:30pm without a reservation and was in and out within 10 minutes. The gentleman was friendly and efficient. I'm so glad I found this spot and will be coming back for smog checks in the future if the price remains the same or reasonably priced! They even had a TV inside while I was waiting!

One thing I noticed--when I arrived right at 8:00 AM, there were already five people behind me waiting for smog inspections, so definitely come early! It's easy to see why they're so busy. I highly recommend KS Smog if you need a fast and efficient smog check. They open at 8:00 AM, which is earlier than many other smog shops in the area that don't open until 9:00 or 10:00. If you're looking for a convenient place to get your smog done before work or other errands, this is the place to go. Highly recommended! Fair price for smog too!!

I guess when your car hits 8 years, the first smog needs to happen and coincided just shy of 8 years *eye roll* I was in the area and came across Hayward Auto Care (HAC). STAR certified location which i realized (later) is overkill for my low-mileage and maintained vehicle. I was told up front the cost (was a bit surprised) and in hindsight, should've gone to a regular Smog Check location. Yes, I should've done my homework beforehand (failed) and paid more for convenience. Completed in 20mins. I would consider returning for other services. Be sure to utilize their COUPON (discount) on their Smog Service and other services located on their site! Disclaimer: There was no hard sell and/or pressure from Ken or his son who were friendly and efficient. Note: STAR stations are held to higher performance standards by the Bureau of Automotive Repair (BAR) and are authorized to test vehicles flagged as high-polluter risks
