A & M Smog Check-Test Only Ctr

The customer service here is the best. I have been going to A & M for years. They always have fast friendly service. A & M makes you feel like they appreciate your business. They open at 8AM

I don’t know whatsup with the negative reviews. I have been coming here for years and had no problems. Quick & easy!

I went to this station. And I just have to say that this guy is NOT honest, and don’t believe their advertisements. He kept adding charges.
All I have to say is avoid these guys. I will NEVER go to this shop again.

Danny has been smogging my 5 personal and business vehicles for over 10 years; He’s a great guy… honest and helpful. He runs the place himself and he’s there from open to close every business day. I refer all my friends and family to him.

The gentleman that owns and operates this shop is really straightforward and I could see how it could not sit well with some. However, the service I received from him was excellent. I failed the first time and accidentally forgot my paperwork for my retest when I returned and he worked it out with me so I didn’t have to go find it. He was honest, quick, and the price is definitely tolerable. I’ll be recommending my friends and the rest of my family that doesn’t already come here.

PET FRIENDLY! He was quick and efficient. Though the price was great, the service and professionalism was better. A must go place for your pain in the butt DMV responsibility.

Honestly just stay away. Will give you the most asinine reasons to why your car won’t pass when it does. The guy talks crap about everyone else, and he even gave me and my friends crud because we drive Mitsubishi! What an a hole. His coupons are absolute lies and if you have a car that has an engine cover, he will charge an additional 10 bucks or more for removal of under 7 screws.
If you’re a person like me, that has barely any modifications, he will swear you won’t pass smog. Even though my cold air intake has an EO number lololol. Ridiculous really!
My dad has been going here way before I could drive. I finally got a car, a mitsubishi 3000gt and this guy just gave me crap how much of a pos it is and how unreliable they are blah blah blah, how it won’t pass and don’t take it to alex at ampm cuz he is a Dumb a – . So inspite of him, I take it to alex for repairs. Next day it passes at a & m with my intake and Alexs help. Basically gave me an my dad crap for it and didn’t want to smog it at first. My dad was yelling at this guy to quit complaining and to do the job he was paid.
Basically if you’re actually car Savvy, you will probably up and leave this place if you are smart and know whats good for ya.
He lost over 10 years of business right there. Not a smart fellow. Quite rude service as well.

Has a bad attitude. His coupon is a lie. He will come up with an excuse to charge you more. Just stay away from this guy. Even though I passed, I left very very irritated.

Called about the hours of service and the technician answered the phone nicely stated the hours and kindly reminded me to bring my DMV form in with me. Arrived and he quickly got to work all the while holding a nice conversation (but not that annoying kind of ‘Shop Talk’). Paid 52 for everything. Test/​Cert/​Transmit to DMV. Came here 2 years ago, and again today. I guess I’ll be seeing him March 15, 2013.

I called ahead and asked for the total price for my smog check on my 2004 Toyota and was quoted $ 42 total with the certificate filing, and that’s exactly what I was charged. When I arrived, early afternoon, there were about 2 people ahead of me, but this station is very efficient, friendly, and the wait wasn’t more than about an hour. Got it done in one afternoon. The DMV had the results in about an hour and a half after I returned home, and I was able to process my online DMV registration renewal in the same afternoon as my smog check. Thanks, Unilocal for a great recommendation.

I found in the Penny Saver a coupon for Smog check $ 29.95. It said, any models and years. I called other places and every where else is about $ 50. I went to this place which is kind of hidden, behind the Jiffy Lube. You go through a door and it’s a room with a few plastic folded chairs. No signs, nothing. I only found it because the address number matched. I had to walk through and look for someone in the garage. There was a korean man sitting there. I told him I needed a check and brought in the coupon. He asked what kind of car I had. 2004 Infiniti G35. He said it’ll have to be $ 39.95 Why? Because my car requires the cover to be taken off of my engine. WTF. He opened my hood to show me. I saw 4 screws he needed to screw off. I told him that I can unscrew it for you. WTF. It was really irritating. Then the smog certificate cost an extra 8 bucks, then the tax. it totaled like 52 bucks. even though it was quick… it’s the whole principality of it. Don’t advertise lies.

I recently moved to Irvine from San Diego, and I was having a difficult time finding a reasonably priced smog check station. I lucked out on this one. I paid about $ 45 total, whereas if I went to my dealer it would’ve been $ 70 and $ 50 [not including certificate and certificate transmission fees] at other Irvine stations.
I called ahead to get pricing, and the man who helped me [Danny] was very helpful and friendly. I decided to try my luck. Service was quick, and Danny was awesome! Such a nice man. I would definitely recommend his services, and I am certain I will be back in 2 years for my next smog check.
