I bought a car on Craigslist that had a lot of problems. I’m glad I found SMG Auto. They smoggrx it. A lot of times. And only charge me One time when I fiannaly fixed it and it passed. Talk to the friendly guy Timmy. He will help you pass. No pass no pay. You got nothing to lose. Well worth it.

DMV made me do a CA brake and light inspection. I called around. No one is licensd to do it. I found SMG Auto in google. Talked to a gentleman named the Jimmy. He helped me pass even tho some issues was a problem. He looked past it and helped me with 2 certificates. And I was back to dmv and got my stickers and Title.

These guys treated me fair and honered the $31.99 smog coupon on there website. I am a woman. And they treated me with respect. Kudos to them. Ask for DB, the bald guy he’s friendly. No pass no pay. I love it will come back

They helped me pass my smog check. My check engine code comes on and off. It was off when I got there. Talk to mr. Jimmmy. He will help you pass. No pass no pay. Only $31.99. Cheapest smog check I have seen in south sac. Next to sac city college

I failed break and light inspection at. Anothe stationCame to SMG auto and talked to DB HE was able to help me out and Pass me without me repairing anything. this is the place to go . no pass no pay very upfront with pricing . Glad I found this place will recommend Al my friends

They charged me $99 for a California dmv brake and light inspection. No pass no pay. I had a lot of issues that another shop failed me. SMG Auto helped me pass make sure you ask for Jimmy. He is the break and light specialist. Will refer all of my friends and family here.

Got a very shady vibe from the guy. Did not want to give me a quote for my job and when he finally did it was severely overpriced. Then the man got angry and very confrontational when I walked because I didn’t want to pay that much.

Needed a brak and lamp inspection because my insurance company salvaged my car . Searched eveyhwee and couldn’t find anyone as reputable as SMG. THEY had me I’m and out with no problem,s and I got the pass I needed and the certificate to turn in to DMV. WHILE other shops told me I had to wait 2 weeks out. They offer no pass no pay so you have nothing to worrru about . They guarantee a pass. Believe me, I know what I’m talking anout . Plenty of other shops just sounded shady. Will definitely let my friends know if they need a brake and light test. They charged me $99.99 whole other shoPS WANTEE double if not triple.

This place is fast, but also feels sketchy. They are not up front about their pricing, and you should carefully note the fine print on their online coupons. Because they rush you through the process, its actually not even clear when you can present the coupon or talk about pricing.I would also note that although they say they open at 9, everyone that showed up at 9 just ended up sitting in their cars for half an hour before they would start.If you want something fast and shady, this place is fine. But there are other places to get your smog certification that are comparably priced and a lot more professional.

This place is great. They are always professional and they always get you In and out of there.

I talked to Jimmy and db.They got me in abs out fast. For dmv break and light. And they are star smog. No pass no pay. I love it I will be back

Horrible Experience! After explaining I needed a Smog Certification the mechanic smacked me across the face and punched my 37 month old daughter in the face. School will never be the same for her since she now has permanent damage to her facial structure. Kinda lame of them or whatever but I was more upset at the OUTRAGEOUS prices charged here!! Probably won’t be returning?

Awful experience! Completely over charged for a simple inspection. Never go here!

THE LOWEST PRICE ☆STAR CERTIFIED☆ SMOG ONLY☆ NO PASS NO PAY☆ FACILITY IN ALL OF THE SACRAMENTO AREA INCLUDING ROSEVILLE AND CITRUS HEIGHTS AREAS AS WELL!▪︎GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE!▪︎VERY FRIENDLY AND KNOWLEDGEABLE! ▪︎FAST AS FAST CAN BE!VERY GLAD I CHOSE SMG! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND AND I WILL ONLY USE THEM FROM NOW ON! THANKS GUYS!😎🤗

Tried to call to see how much it would cost to smog Honda CR-V. Could Only get recording of business hours, what vehicles they dont smog, etc. Took chance that price would be low since Ive been there before and they were cheap. Cost was $59.99 which is higher than several other places I was thinking of going to. At least they were fast and efficient. They have couple if chairs under tree for the waiting area.

They received a one star because of customer service...I had been there before, job was done fast but now... No uniform, I thought a another customer was approaching me with a waffle sticks in his hand. I was told to move my car across the street to be next in line, it was his dismissive mannerism that soured me. I simply left found another deal online. I was prepared to pay more than do business with this company.

Warning, $28 w/cert is an old price. I paid $50, which was the $32 smog, plus $8 cert plus an extra $10 fee for having it Star certified.I also tried their phone and left a voicemail with no call back. When I asked about their phone...they say they have been having trouble with their AT&T phone line.They also will not tell you the price until your car is already ready to go...what an underhanded tactic. Of course you wont go anywhere else if youre already all hooked up.These sneaky guys...at least theyre fast at what they do. With only one or 2 cars in front of me the whole process was under 30 mins. Due to their speed, thats the only reason they get 3 stars. Dont drive out of your way to go here but definitely go if you live close by.

Hey everyone out there be careful of this guys, they are rippers and liars, these guys arent honest with people... I have a young lady, a first time car owner went there for a Brake and Lamp check and she was charged $500 for for just brake and lamp, every other people in Sacramento charges $90. They pot a ridiculous amount of their price list... They claim to charge $1,800 for smog on there price list... They SCAMMED the young lady because she doesnt have experience with it... I have filed a complain about them... They are SCAMMERS!!! I have attached a pic of the receipt.

Bad experience. Super shady guy running this place. Felt very scammy. Switch n bait price gouge going on here (ended up paying double than advertised price!). I’d gone here before, all went good so I returned recently. The line was pretty long. I finally get up there and the owner (I think- Asian guy with shaved head) just didn’t seem honest. First he tried to tell me my check engine light warning would give us a problem but I didn’t ever have a check engine light come on. He said something like, “it shouldn’t affect the results but if I help you out, maybe you can help me out”. Very weird proposition. I prefer to just go the honest route. If it didn’t pass, I’d get the problem fixed. Plus it was advertised at $32 but then he added $8 for certificate PLUS $10 for being a small SUV PLUS $10 for “star” inspection. So it’s actually $60. They make you wait so long in the hot sun that you’ll just pay what they want. Pretty screwed up. Don’t go here... go to an honest place where you can wait in a waiting room. I’ll never go back here.

They charged me $88 for smog test for a title transfer. I have since talked to other smog testing places that do not charge extra for a title transfer. Get a price up front.

Horrible experience, these guys tried to tell me a lamp and brake inspection was $500, it costs $150 anywhere else. SCAMMERS

Always a great place to go. Technicians are always friendly and honestly. Definitely Ill be going back over and over again

Excellent service good rates in and out

Total rip off AND refused to even speak to my wife. Heavily over charged her. Never again.

Cheap smog $28.00 out the door with certificate. As long as you mention google discount ad for the discount price I mentioned above. Real quick barely had to wait about 15 minutes. He does get busy but he works thru the line fast.

If there is a little e wait. Its fast and worth it. Dont forget about tve online coupon

Great place for smog and light/brake check. There may be a line but so what. Bring a book or just kick back and RELAX. Let all your stress and worry go for this short period of time. The wait time was bout 45 min. But worth every minute.These guys are Super Cool and do a great job. Go see them......

G great service to take guy was awesome and I would take any of my other cars back there and their services fast

They were very good and efficient thank you

This place is by far the best place for smog services. The fastest and quality service Ive ever experienced. Ive taken both of my vehicles here and the guys working there recognize returning customers. I highly recommend this business to family and friends.

My friend got scammed out of $500 for a brake light inspection. Do not go here for anything!!!

Not much to look at, sorta sketchy area, but theyre fast and friendly. Gone here the last two times, will be back in two years

Quick process and best price in town. In and out within 20 min and there was two car ahead of me. Just make sure you mention internet promo.

Great friendly staff that truly cares for there customers and there community I was treated like family wish more businesses adopted their values thank you guys for all the good you do for us.

They were busy, but I did not have to wait very long. Professional and courteous!

Fast good work no beating around the bush.long line so get there early.i highly recommend

Super honest people even my car didnt pass smog check but they told is just 5he car needs to be driven more.

Hands down best place for smog and brake and lamp. I will be taking all of my vehicles up there.

So nice, so quick, very informative and helpful. Great experience

It was a short wait and I didnt have to wait long for them to start the process of my smog very satisfied Ill keep coming here

This place is great! I got here and waited a short time in line and got smogged quickly. I would definitely come again

Fast & organized. Not the cheapest but great work.

These guys are great. I always get my car here to get the smog check done

In and out in 20 minutes. Super friendly. No BS.

This place tried to rip me off. He wanted to charge me 200 dollars for a brake and light inspection. He changed his mind when I told him he was trying to get over on me. Then he asked how much I wanted to pay. Women please be careful with places like this. Unbelievable!

These guys take advantage of inexperienced people, dont go here

Great customer service. I highly recommend this place if you are getting a smog.

Great price. Good crew. Fast and easy. Cheapest smog Ive found in town. Definitely coming back.

They try to scam you, definitely won’t eat here again!!

Fast, decently priced and their covid protocols are well established because its all outside. They offer retest if ur car doesnt pass. Its a STAR facility.

DO NOT GO TO THIS PLACE THeY bROKE THE LATCH FOR MY HOOD BY repedeately slamming it

Quick and easy, suv is $10 extra from coupon but $50 out the door with cert is good.

Very friendly and efficient guys, glad I came here to get my car smogged! Cost me 80 dollars for the Star Certified Smog Test and I didnt have much of a wait, just about 5 minutes for the guy in front of me to be done. Smog itself only took about 15 minutes, and I do greatly like their no pass no pay policy!

I waited for 1:30 to do smog check and after the line they said it’s 68$ dollar. I don’t recommend this place 😂😂

Great People an great about getting you in an out they also do brake light inspection as well

Always a good experience

Was asking me for break and lights 600

Great place to smog your car!

There may be a wait for this place but you can beat it if you come early! I really like their dont pass, dont pay policy, especially since I have an older car and had a hard passing the last time I had to get a star certified smog. Really friendly crew and I love supporting community businesses!

I have a great experience at SMG Auto when I went to get a smog check . SMG Auto was quick, efficient, reasonable and transparent pricing.

They are doing this community a favor.I have an extremely busy week but there’s no way I won’t make time to give these guys a review.NO PASS NO PAY! It doesn’t get better than that$29 bucks out the door. Cheapest & most professional place I’ve ever been to. These guys are so fast & affordable I wouldn’t understand anybody going anywhere else. I can’t stress enough how professional these guys are. THEY WILL TAKE CARE OF YOU. The first time I went I didn’t pass. Typically smog stations charge even though you don’t pass. I came back with everything fixed & left under 10 minutes. If there’s a line it’s still worth the wait.Although they are typically busy the only thing I see they could improve on is marketing their business & expanding into new areas. Everyone needs to know them.

Nice staff and good price.

Scammers

Professional and helpful, will continue using their services.

From one shop owner, to another. You guys are AWESOME!They are efficient, courteous, honest, and their prices beat out anyone in the area!They EARN your business. They get the work done, don’t waste your time or your money, and get you on your wayI would recommend these guys over anyone else that I have dealt with.John McDonaldSilly Rabbit Tuning

Very quick and professional, I was in and out in less than 30 minutes.

This is THE place to go to get your car smogged! If it doesnt pass then you dont pay... The guys there are amazing and fast. I highly recommend this place of you need to get your car smogged 👍

What really impressed me is the efficiency to which they operate. I didnt have to get out of my car for more than 5 minutes. Great price, quick service, very pleasant interaction saved me time and money. Would have been happy even if I didnt pass. This is the kind of small business I want to support.

Jr is always helpful and the don’t pass don’t pay policy has been very nice. Thank you all for all you do :)

Good service but they are expensive when it comes to brake and light inspections. Got charged $99 for brake and $99 for light. Most places would charge about $80-90 for both, not each.

Great customer service.

These guys are con artists

This place was fast, professional and efficient with they job they did. The line was pretty long but I was out of there in 20-30 minutes. They process 2 cars at a time and it takes them roughly 20 minutes per couple of cars. I would highly recommend this smog shop if youre looking for a star certified location! This was truly a great experience all around!

Business was steady. There is a little wait time.

Great place, fast and friendly staff

Price has tripled since the last time I was there but fast service overall

Great people. Fast service. Make sure to wait in the line in the opposite side of the shop. They will pull in two cars in at time for smog. One the guys is dedicated to paperwork, the other two are dedicated to the testing. Best smog prices in Sacramento hands down.

Best service. Best price. Im telling you, no other smog place will beat their price and service! The line will seems long, but most likely you will be done by 1 hour at the most.

Hands down, the only smog shop I come to. Come here whenever my cars need smogs done. You just have to time it perfectly so you dont come to a wait of over 30 minutes at times. Other than that, Ill still keep coming back.

Great service and worked wonders on my truck

All 3 inspections went like this:One stop in under one hour for one hundred dollars -man you cant get any better than that!Knowledgeable & friendly staff.EXCELLENT service.~8~

Excellent service this guys are awesome, very honest, since I found this place always do my smogs.

Price gone up

07/09/2020Looks like I had to change my rating. Yesterday i messaged SMG Smog inquiring about closing time but never heard anything back. So i did what any person would do an used there listed operating times which was 9-5pm. I left work early and showed up at 330pm only to find it was closed. 😕😓😳07/08/2020Came here in 2018 for a smog. Friendly and professional people. This is the only smog shop I will go to.

These guys are straight to the point of getting your car serviced for smog. They only do the testing they do not do any kind of repairs. Search them up to find their specials. Thanks SMG Auto Star Smog.

These brothers and their crew are the best! Had my smog checked 2 years ago, they were good then, but the service was even better this year. I drove in mid-day and was out in about 15 minutes. I highly recommend them to anyone needing a smog check.

This is a good place to get a smog check. Theyre Star certified. The staff are polite, efficient, and organized. Highly recommended!

They were efficient, quick and polite. My husband was in and out in 15 minutes

Really quick 10 mins a person, they prep you for your smog while you wait in line in your car on the street. $60 for smog + cert. Friendly and upfront with their cost and services.

Grate service, got me in and out quickly

I called eight (8) times to all THREE of the other home numbers they have listed, just to get some information and each time they ignored the call or sent it immediately to voicemail, on top of that the staff there are incredibly rude and clearly think they’re above everybody else because they offer a $20 smog check. I guess it’s a business that has the motto of you get what you pay for $20 smog $2 customer service and professionalism definitely will never recommend coming here unless you want to have spit shot in your face.

My boyfriend and I were so impressed that we had to review. We arrived and left with our smog clearance certificate within 8 minutes!!! And we only paid $20 ($28 including fees). They were super quick, friendly, and professional. Great job guys!

Great services!!! Fast and easy! Super friendly staffs. People who are living in Elk Grove, I strongly recommend you go there for your brake and light inspections certificates.

Owner gave me an estimated time for work completion. They were faster than time quoted by doing a pretest. He fully explained charges and took a payment before work was to be started.

Great service and quick.. highly

First time here. Very good service. Very friendly helpers and fast service. I like the way they do their service with affordable price.

Great customer service, very friendly, fast, efficient, service. Good deals on smog check. Definitely will come back and everyone should get their smog check done here. Quick service, in and out quickly!

Worst business in Sacramento. Verbally assaulting customers and zero respect for others vehicles. We asked this man to not Slam our doors and he looks us dead in the eye and slams the other door and hood.PLEASE TAKE YOUR MONEY ELSEWHERE!!

Great experience, fast and professional.

Professional, respectful, customer friendly and fast. Im hard to impress when it comes to customer satisfaction. SMG auto is a throwback shop to how we should be treated as customers. Thank you for treatment.
