Such friendly service! Great customer service, I can see why it’s so well recommended.

I went here only because they are one of the few smog testing businesses open on Sunday. On the phone they said it was $ 48 but afterwards I find out they charge extra fees and it ended up being $ 68. I felt swindled.

Fast, friendly and efficient. Doesn’t get better than that.
From arrival to payment, took no more than 20 minutes (which included a customer finishing up in front of me).
Carlos is the man.

Quick and efficient service. No hassle smog check. Accepts AMEX! Mid-​Sunday visit only one person before me. Process took 25 minutes start to finish — including previous patron checking out! 20% Unilocal discount is towards labor only.

Just finished with the smog check, quick and friendly service. I would recommend Vista to everyone I know. Offered a beverage while waiting as well.

Took my vehicle in late on a Saturday afternoon and they took me right away. The men were friendly and knew what they were doing. It took about 10 – 15 minutes and the job was done. I’ll be back again.

Few shops even *deal* with pre-​1990 vehicles. I’ve been taking my 1981 Dodge Van to Vista Test Only Center for years, because they’re professionals who *understand* how to test older vehicles *correctly*. In the past i’ve worked with Carlos, and i think maybe Sam the owner. Today i met Jesus, who knew what to do and had _​no problem_​testing my van – which others won’t touch. They’ve done equally well with my mother’s 1998 Cadillac DeVille.
No one (i know) enjoys going in for emissions tests. The team at Vista Test Only Center makes this biennial endeavor as painless and pleasurable as possible. As well, for vehicles like mine, they are always at or near the best (lowest) total price!
Thank you Jesus, thank you Carlos, thank you Sam – see you in two years!

I have been coming here for YEARS! Service is courteous, fast, efficient and friendly. I was in and out today in absolutely no time. Love these guys a lot. You won’t be disappointed. Give them a try!!!

Came in today after being told by the DMV that I needed a smog check same day. I called ahead and was told there is no wait. Carlos was fast, friendly, and professional. He even helped we with the air in my tires and spare. The service was quick and about the same price as most other smog check places. Drive slow when you get close, because the entrance is small. The entrance is between a brick building and a place called «Car Lot.»

They were open Sunday! I would recommend going there on Sunday… it’s really slow, and they fit me in right away. The guy working there was SUPER nice, and gave me gum and water. Love this place! Also, he honored the check-​in discount. $ 48

Fastest smog check Ive ever experienced. I came in at 10:30 am, thankful they were even open on a Sunday, and by the time I read two pages of my magazine — it was done. The man was very nice and honored my Unilocal check in discount.

It is very simple. My mechanic at Stuttcar Service recommended Vista. It was the right call. One pull in, they do their thing, you pay yout fee and you are out. Sam and Carlos know their way around older and sophisticated cars. They know what to look for in the test and inspection.

Would never had seen this place — found it through Unilocal and very grateful.
Kinda hidden in a lot of a few auto-​related vendors — and one of the only places I could find open on a Sunday. I didn’t have any wait, he did the smog check and it was done (and I passed) before I knew it. Don’t let appearances keep you from using this facility. Great service! Thanks :)

Good to do smog check! It’s quick, and he helps me check everything, to recommend where should I take care. And I got a ice water in the hot summer

Went here for a smog check because of the good reviews on Unilocal and I’m glad I did! Was in and out of there in 20 minutes. The guy who performed the service was really friendly. He chatted me up about soccer and offered me a bottle of water all while I waited for the test to be completed. He then gave me a tiny discount for being an Arsenal fan which I thought was really sweet. Next time I have to get a smog check, this is where I will be going!

In and out in less than 15 minutes and that’s that there was one car in front of me. Best part about it was that by checking in you get $ 10 off!!! If you need to get a smog make sure you come early in the week that guy said. Saturdays and Sundays are the busiest. Highly recommended.
