So shocked when I read the bad reviews, since I had a good experience.
I was at the DMV (5 min away) to change my license and registration from CA to NV. I found out I needed a smog test, and there was one across the street but I figured I would do my yelp research beforehand for the best one and possibly save some money.
The first one that popped up was not the one directly across the street, but Auto Tech with 4 and a half stars and a $10 for $25 groupon. Called ahead to find out how much a smog test was and whether or not the coupon was applicable in this case. It was, so I went ahead and bought it and drove there.
Ed was the one on the phone and the one who handled everything at the front desk. Super nice, efficient, and I was probably out of there in 10 minutes. I asked for water and he gave me a bottle from the fridge, which just demonstrates great customer service. Also, I liked the magazines they had in the waiting room and the bathroom was pretty clean, which is a huge plus.
All in all, highly recommended. This kind of price for a smog check is unheard of in California.
