I needed to take my Prius in for smog check and have gone to another smog check station in the past. They were closed today so I called and made an appointment with Payless Smog Center to bring my car in this morning. When I drove my car in, I met Andy who was very direct and blunt (in a funny way); it cracked me up. He was super efficient and smog check was done really quickly. I'll be coming back here for all my cars in the future.

Fast, efficient, easy. Competitive and fair pricing and about as good of an experience as you could want. We found our new smog guy!

Very fast and very reasonably priced. I called to make an appointment for a smog check and there was one available same-day. I was in and out within literally 5 minutes--they work super fast. I'll be coming back next time I need a smog check.

Avoid him or you'll wish you didn't. I went to him because I read high reviews when I got there he said my car failed. He threw away the reading thing and it said it failed for a lean engine issue I paid $50 for five minutes of service. He told me to drive it 200 miles and come back. I took it to a mechanic and the mechanic told me there was nothing wrong with that code or the sensor. I took it back to him it passed, but I was there another five minutes and he charged me $120 and when I asked him why it was another $120 on top of the 50 he said it was for resetting something and he charged me $70 so I paid a total of $170 for a total of 10 to 15 minutes. When I was there the second time and the first time he did the same thing to two other people. I think it's a scam, I also took it to the mechanic and the mechanic talk to him and then he was upset with me for having the mechanic talk to him.

Quick & easy. It was the first time to get the smog test. I'm so surprised that it just took a couple minutes to get the test done! * Look for a deal if available. I claimed the yelp deal ($49.70). You need to add the state certificate ($8.25) to total, FYI.

Excellent experience. The service person was very curt and clear on the phone. When I showed up he worked lightning fast. He was done with smog check in about 3-4 minutes and gave me the printout. He made almost no small talk and pulled my car out of the shop. I'm definitely coming back here. No BS smog check service for busy people.

Can I give this place 10 stars please? I renewed my registration fees for dmv on the evening before our flight to Europe. That moment I realised that smog check is required. I was so limited on time. I only had few hours in the morning left to take care of it. I called this place and it was already closed. I left a voicemail and got a call back at 7.40 am (even before the place is open!!) I was there at 7.50 and I literally left the place at 7.55! In and out. Smog check was taken care of. I'm so happy. The business owner of this place is amazing. Quick and efficient. Highly recommend this place. Thank you so much

I went in today to get a smog check and the owner, which has a crappy attitude, saw my vehicle and told me he parked next to my car and he felt like he was in Tijuana. 20 years ago I would have reacted differently. Today I kept my cool. Im a car guy, I own 8 vehicles, trucks, sports cars, classic cars and a couple of low riders. I'm a Southern California native and live in car culture. I don't write too many reviews nor am I that sensitive but his comment seemed very racist. I've brought him 4 of my 8 cars and usually our conversations are pretty short. I politely explained to him that lowrider culture was created here in socal and not in Tijuana. He didn't really care about my comment, in fact he laughed when I called him on it. I am of Mexican decent but I'm born here in California, he clearly was not born here but he should learn to be more respectful. I too am a small business owner, at a car shop, but I would never say anything like this to anyone. I really only went to him because he's never really busy. Easy solution for me, I will never go to him again.

Hyper fast, always reliable. Been going here for last 10 years. Driving 10 miles out of my way to get my smog.
