Save On Smogs

Got great service, quick in & out for Star smog testing@ competitive price. I had checked around, so knew what it would be. Appreciate getting an «out the door» price, not a lowball that didn’t include everything. Interesting owner too. Will return next time I need smog testing.

I’ve had at least 5 smogs done at this place, and it’s always been a painless process. It’s never super busy, and there is a perpetual $ 30 off coupon on their website.

Been coming to this Smog Station for many years… always had pleasant service… not this time… Alex was the technician… when i came in the door he was sitting on the couch using his ipad… no greeting or anything… i thought he was a customer too… but then eventually he came over behind the counter… he seemed very botheref to have to do his job… i asked about smogging my car… he told me 79… which i thought was high… he told me the best he can do since he is not the owner is 20 off… unless i had a coupon he could staple to the work order… i went and got one for 30 off… he refused to accept it… i asked him why he would lose my business over 10 dollars… he rolled his eyes… it was a shame… now i will have to find a new smog place… i just saw someone else had exact same experience with Alex… i wished i had went when Dave was there… they should really think about how badly they want to lose business when Alex is working… if i owned this shop he would not be working the counter for me ever

Fast, pleasant service, plus he knocked off $ 30+ right away (didn’t bother asking why!). Total was $ 58 out the door. I’ll definitely return!

I just called to get a price check for my vehicle and it’s $ 40 more than everywhere else I’ve called. Doesn’t exactly live up to the name of the company.

I just took my car there for a smog today. The man was so quick, friendly and thoughtful! Definitely would go back and recommend this place!

Fast, reliable service. I didn’t have my form from the DMV but gentleman laid out exactly what I needed even letting me know the price and a coupon for a substantial discount. Recommend for all smog checks!

Very good swift service, they couldn’t have been nicer:)

Oh, I get it. It depends who helps you at this location. Dave is a 5 Star. Alex is minus 5 Star. Beware! Call before you go and make sure Dave is there. BTW– my car passed and I was still treated poorly.

Since it was the weekend I thought lots of people may be trying to get a smog done. So I rushed down to Save On Smog (where I have been before a few years back with one of my other cars) and was greeted immediately by a technician named David. I gave him my paper work and he asked for my coupon… OH NO I do not have one. He suggested I go on my phone and get the coupon from online. I did that very thing and saved $ 30! I can’t even explain how awesome it was to actually such excellent customer service. I HIGHLY recommend this place and whenever I need a smog for one of my cars I will be back!
Thanks again for the excellent service!

I called at the last minute on a Saturday, Dave said come on over if you can get here in the next 20 minutes. I arrived, he was waiting for me. He was so polite and very helpful. The shop was clean the office was welcoming, clean and had a nice aroma. I will go there every time for my smog check. I was in and out in no time at all. Thank you Dave

Friendly service, just walked in and they fit me in for an appointment and great location (grabbed lunch while I waited).

Wasn’t it Shakespeare who said «Oh, how does thee smog so fair…»? No, probably not. Anyway, I had a coupon for a smog joint, but mistakenly arrived here thinking this was the place. I had to ask, but they honored the other guys coupon and had me in and out pretty quick. Plus, I passed the check.
It’s a smog station so as you can imagine, there’s nothing fancy about it, but if you’re a chick who’s into heavy-​set guys who are unshaven and smell like car fumes, this is a pretty sexy place to be. Get a smog and a date!

I’ve been here several times without any problems, but today I was met with a very rude technician which was not the usual older white gentlemen who works there. He tried to tell me he could not smog my RV since it would take longer than a car. The fact is, this RV is based on a Toyota truck platform and requires no special configuration other than an EVAP test, which is performed on all cars 1976 – 1995 per California emissions test requirements. I know this because I was a mechanic with smog training before moving to a career in IT. I explained this to him, and he told me to smog it myself since I knew so much about performing a smog test. He clearly didn’t want do business with me.
I brought the RV down the street to VIP Smog which actually had the air conditioner turned ON to keep their customers comfortable, and was able to perform the test for less money and get me on my merry way.

They get it done!

Horrible Customer service. Guy at the desk is so not helpful, doesn’t explain anything and doesn’t honor the face value of the coupon.

Excellent service. Little to no wait. Very polite.

Brought in a coupon for Save ON from ValPac for a $ 24.95 smog check plus the usual state fees. The kid behind the counter told me it was a misprint and wanted to charge me $ 55.00! I went home and called… told him I had the coupon and got quoted $ 37.95 «out the door».
Scam artist’s. STAY AWAY.

Excellent and expedient service. They told me every car is 15 to 20 minutes and I watched 3 cars get their turn before mine and every time it was under 15 minutes, including mine. The price is good and they guarantee to match any local competitors price.
