H-1 Auto Smog

Quick, cheap smog check. I called ahead of time to make sure wasn’t too busy. In and out in 15 minutes. Thanks

Had a walk-​in smog check on a Saturday morning, and they immediately took care of it though I arrived 15mins before they even opened the garage doors! Outstanding service and unbeatable value! Definitely would recommend to anyone!

I can’t believe I wasted only 12 minutes getting my vehicle smog certified as a walk in. Easy location, attentive service, and great price.

I went to Andres for my 2002 Honda Accord transmission with only 50,000 miles on it. He was very accommodating with the warranty and the price. He fixed my transmission and it works much better than when I first got the car. He also gave me additional tips to make my car last as long as possible. I highly recommend H1 transmission.

As others stated: fast, cheap, and courteous service. I haven’t had much experience with other smog check stations, but this was painless.

I pretty much know close to nada when it comes to things I am supposed to do for my car. I get really nervous in general with any car service places because I always somehow feel like I’m being jipped and they can tell I know nothing. Kevin made the whole process very easy; even testing my car first to make sure I wasn’t wasting my time/​money.
Was able to get the whole process done quickly without an appointment which was super sweet. I’m glad I don’t have to stressfully google smog places anymore when the time comes. And its 40 smackaroos. Need I say more? Thank you again Kevin!!- especially for being so nice and not treating me like an idiot even though I know nothing about car shizzz.

Excellent fast service at a great price. What else can you ask for. Great shop for a smog.

Easy schmeezy. Professional, courteous and fast. I was done in less than 20 min and it only cost $ 40. Highly recommended.

Super fast smog check! Kevin gives great customer service and was finished with my car in 10 minutes. I highly recommend this place. $ 40 total price for my suv!

It all started with a long wait. They did not check the car to indicate there was a problem with the catalytic convertor. Instead they wasted my time, charged me, and submitted the information to DMV. Horrible service and expensive. Stay away!

Under current regulations a pre-​OBD II (pre-​2009) converter can pass the smog check as long as it was installed before 1÷1÷09, and you can provide the smog station proof of the installation date and proof that the CAT was designed specifically for use on your vehicle (including make, model, year, and engine size). I was not given this option.

Needed to get a quick Smog check done for my car per DMV to get my new stickers for my plates. Found this place on Unilocal,close to the pad and look the cheapest.
Got there and had no line, pulled up and they told me to pull the car into the garage right away. Less than 5 mins of waiting, the guy comes in and hands me the paperwork and told me that I was done. I paid the guy and I left. Under 10 mins without a line and I was headed to AAA to get my stickers. There was a long line there.
But this review isn’t about AAA it’s about H-​1. They are fast, good and fair price. I had a good experience there, you should too. Will definitely go back in the future. Thanks guys!

Went in today after I realized I needed to get a smog check to renew my registration. All the other reviews were spot-​on. This place is great! Easy to find, Friendly, knowledgeable person, was in and out in probably 10 minutes. $ 40, total. Did not need the coupon. Definitely will be back when I need to!

I frikkin LOVE this place!!! SERIOUSLY…takes the phrase «hassle free «to a whole new level!
Before I came here I’ve called around to a dozen different places to try and find a decent…(in my case cheap) place that will do a smog check on my prius before my registration deadline which was the next day… I’m seriously a procrastinator. fyi…this took place on the first of august and I’m barely writing this review… Anyways, this shop saved my ass money.
Above all else, it had all the upgraded systems and tools to where it literally took no more than 10min. Also, the owner kevin, I think that’s his name, was really nice and knew what he was talking about. I didn’t feel cheated and trusted his judgement. Other places was quoting me $ 80 to $ 100 bucks due to the fact that it was a hybrid but H1 charged me only $ 40
including the certificate.
So, to all you hybrid users out there… don’t waste your time, and don’t go anywhere else… H1 and Kevin will take care of you

Loved this place! In and out in 15 minutes and I have 1996 vehicle — super friendly staff. Would totally recommended to anyone who needs a smog!

Took my toyota prius in. cost$ 40 for smog check + cert. not bad! Fast and easy. I totally recommend this place. They accept credit cards and theres no need to bring coupon. The guy gave me the discount without asking. I would definitely go back to this place.

Stop by this place needing a smog check after reviewing it on Unilocal and I must say that I agree with all the positive reviews! It was a real pleasure dealing with Kevin and Antonio! The smog check went by so quick and was painless, I pass! Then I got a quick quote on replacing my front headlight bulb which was just my price and Antonio took care of that with ease! I been looking for a repair shop I can go to and deal with trust worthy people since I relocated to San Pedro and I thinks I found my place!

Great place!
I came here to do smog check because of great reviews and since it was very close to my house.
It was done in like 10mins paid 38 dollars total
The worker heard weird noise from my car and checked it out for me
He found out that my oil level was very low and told me that I would need some oil added.
Great guy.
I recommend this place

First of all, this place is not just a smog check business. They are full-​on mechanics. And, they are SUPER honest. Which is a very rare trait among mechanics.
We took one of our cars to be smoged at another place. They told us it would be over a thousand dollars to get it to pass. I knew that could not be correct. We saw all the good Unilocal so we took it to H1. With no BS they told us what needed to be done and did it. They got it to pass for a fraction of that amount.
I will be bringing my cars here from now on.
Highly recommended!

Due to the low $ 38 out the door price for smog service here, I was bracing myself to have to deal with poor service, attitude and /​or a long wait time… something.
Boy was I wrong. This is a convenient location with easy parking – they guided me right into the bay. No appointment necessary, decent waiting area and personable service at the counter. All this plus what I believe to be the lowest price in the area. Seriously, «why pay more?» There was a banner in the fence out front promoting the $ 29.75 + cert special, so I don’t expect that the coupon is even necessary.
Not a posh spot by any means, but they get the job done easily and inexpensively. NB– they also do other automotive service, and I expect that it’s a good value as well. Someone was getting their brakes done while I was there.
