One Stop Smog

So far I have been here 3 times, twice for oil change and once for brake pad replacement. I have never had a problem here. They usually don’t have a long wait and they seem to be pretty speedy. They even let us use the company truck while my brake pads were being replaced to go grab a bite to eat. The oil change was $ 60 for synthetic oil so that was pretty cheap by comparative standards to other local places but the brake pads ran me about $ 160, with labor that seems to be a little steep even with ceramic brake pads. They also have a cute little senior dog that runs around the inside of the shop that is not totally friendly. It’s funny because there are signs all over that say don’t touch the dog, this fluffy little monkey is likely a liability! He has his couch, and if you sit in his spot on his couch he’ll growl at you, I find that hilarious! He’s likely pretty harmless :-)

I came for a new battery and a smog. The smog was $ 50 And it was quick (10 minutes). The place is small and not that nice but the owner is very friendly.
I work late and was trying to get a smog at 5:45 and they closed at 6. A different place I called said they couldn’t take me in because they needed to close, but here they were willing to wait and happy to take me in. They said if you ever need anything after they close you can call them and they will stay late. Very convenient.
They also washed my car with a power washer and it was complimentary! I’ll probably be coming back for my next car issue since they do more than just smogs.

My 2005 Camry was giving me lots of issues recently. I took it to this place just for safety inspection and they called me to see my car on the ramp. They said they will fix everything and things were done perfect yay a very reasonable price. Highly recommend, very professional

One of the best shop in natomas. I suggest everyone to come at this place. One of the best and cheapest shop in town. Went to 4 – 5 different shops and everybody wants to put a transmission and want to charge 3 thousand to 4 thousand so I went to this shop, they says the only problem with the Car is axel seal is leaking and put new seal and axel and cage $ 280. And now my car is drive brand new. No more leaking or Slipping. Great Shop Highly Recommended.

These guys are awesome. replaced my 2015 mazda tire and matched with the other tree tires. Always the best price in town with excellent Quality service and very informative group of guys. I recommend One stop for all your Auto care.

The best shop in town! The people there are competent and caring. Won’t go anywhere else!

I bring all five of my families car’s to One Stop… Never had an issue. I have found Raj to be very honest and they have never let me down! I recommend them to everyone I know.

My boy Raj here is one trustworthy mechanic, I wouldn’t hesitate leaving him my keys to the 370! He can and will do any kinda work! Shout out to Mo for slipping on my coilovers too! Great ride! Any type of performance or maintenance you should come here!

I’ve had a few issues with a used car I purchased earlier this year… tires, windows, oil pump… they fixed them all. Good prices, good service, friendly. I recommend them for all your car problems or just general maintenance.

Very honest and friendly these guys have been taking care of my car for over a year and my car always runs great never had any problems they never take advantage of the fact that I’m a young lady that doesn’t know anything about cars. So thank you guys, and thank you Manaza and Rizwam for referring me

Excellent customer service and professional staff very happy with services done as well as maintain a clean business in keeping safety the priority made me feel comfortable as a customer

I can’t trust auto mechanics. Being a young adult woman with no knowledge of cars, if a mechanic tells me something’s wrong and it’s going to cost X amount of dollars, I’m like, «Yeah, fix it so my car doesn’t spontaneously combust on the freeway.» I just want to say that I’ll never go to anybody else ever again. At first, I had a belt issue and Pep Boys wanted to charge me close to $ 500 dollars to fix which I didn’t really have the money for. After reading Unilocal reviews of this place (and noticing that it was the only one around me open on the weekends) I called them up. They fixed my belts for less than half the cost Pep Boys was trying to charge me. Also, when they started squeaking again (which is the reason why I brought it in to Pep Boys to begin with) I called them and they told me to bring it right in.
They looked at it and within half an hour he told me transmission fluid was actually leaking on the belt (I do have a leak in my transmission which brings me to my next story about why this place is literally the best) and that he cleaned up the belt and stuck new transmission fluid in free of charge (the place I first brought it to charged me $ 20 bucks just to fill up the transmission fluid so I thought that was awesome).
Today, I went to get my axels replaced. I bring it in right when they open and the man actually remembers me! I should also mention I took my car into a transmission specialty shop I was referred to to patch up the leak but they were incredibly sketchy. I went to Meineke right down the street from me to get a simple oil change and out of curiosity asked them to check the transmission leak. They told me there was actually a huge leak in the transmission still. I mentioned this story to One Stop and they said they’d make sure to look at it. That was around 7. By 7:30 he’s already called me with the diagnosis. He said he’d replace both axles (and quoted me a price that was, again, a few hundred bucks less than any other place had quoted me prior to bringing it in)(The only reason I called other places was because I recently moved to Elk Grove and was worried my car wouldn’t make it because again, no car knowledge but I sucked it up and just went) and that he wanted to try to fix the leak with something a bit better (apparently the transmission specialists just threw some silicone on there) and to not worry about the price. Honestly, I love this place. Everyone’s super nice, the prices are awesome, I’m not waiting all day to pick up my car, and I never have any issues with any of the stuff they give me, which is all totally brand new. Nothing from some crappy pick-​n-​pull or anything. Plus, there’s a dog that hangs out on their couch and I think that’s really cool. Finally, a car place I can trust.

I was referred here by a friend and fellow Unilocaler and was very happy that I came here. I had two cars that needed smog tested and this place was great. The waiting area is very comfortable and professional with nice chairs and sofas that allow for relaxing or continuing work while waiting. There is coffee, snacks and water for customers and the whole waiting area is simply nice.
The tech who tested my cars was very quick and friendly. Also the young lady who works the front desk is very pleasant and treats you as a valued cusotmer. I have to say that I have found my future go-​to place for smog testing and general car maintenance – great job to these folks and I strongly recommend them (also go to their web site and print the $ 10 off coupon).

Smog tests aren’t run till 8am on weekdays! Came in at 7 am & came back @ 8 since they promised it would take only 5 – 10 min to do my smog on my ’09 VW. in reality I was there 35 – 40 min. $ 48.00 out the door.
Nice enough staff and decent smog service. They forgot to give me back my registration slip at check out and ran out the door as I was pulling away. not sure I’ll be coming back.

I’m starting to think that Sacramento Unilocaling is opposite of SF Unilocaling. Maybe it’s a grade school thing around here, one star means you’re #1, which would mean that giving something 5 stars is an F.
It has to be, if I could give One Stop Smog 0 stars I would. Absolutely nothing about their business earned any stars from me.
They were incredibly slow, very expensive (almost $ 200 for an oil change and smog), actually, ridiculously exorbitantly out of this world overpriced, expensive doesn’t even cover that or come close. The service wasn’t good, and for making you wait forever (with no customers ahead of me, 3 guys standing around doing nothing when I got there), they could add something besides a dilapidated fish tank, half of a car parts magazine, and do not pet the dog signs.
On top of that, my car did not pass smog, justifiably, because the check engine light was on, however, they did not pick up that it was simply spark plugs that needed to be replaced. How amateur is that? A simple fix, and something that should be easily noticed and recommended by any car professional.
They simply seem like they do not care enough to do even a half-​mediocre job at One Stop Smog, I highly recommend skipping over this business and taking your business elsewhere.

Super quick and cheap. I bought my car in last summer to get a smog check and I was in and out in 10 minutes. Recently, I came here with my fiancée and it was just as quick. Thank you!

I’ve been coming here for 3 years.
I HIGHLY recommend them!
***An Honest Mechanic***

Just went here today. Super quick and fast service. I was there for a smog and I was there for a total of 15 mintues! They were all very nice and professional. I will be going back there more often for sure. Very respectable and fast work. A good job well done.

I love this auto shop! Found it by accident (close to my work) and won’t go anywhere else now. They are super honest and helpful. They will tell you if you can get the work done at the dealership cheaper and help you with it. They check things and don’t charge. They dont add crap in or suggest you do things that are not needed. They are so helpful! This girl has found her mechanics for life! Thank you for helping a girl out and not making me feel stupid! Love these guys!!!

Best experience I’ve had in any car repair/​maintenance facility. I called to receive a quote for a smog, after providing information he quoted me $ 48.25 out the door.
When I got there I greeted by the owner before I had even made it to the front desk! I told him what I needed and he grabbed my paperwork and went to work. After about 10m the owner, who’s extremely friendly, handed my a nice cold water for my wait. That was above and beyond for a lot of places.
He values his customers. After it was completed and yes I passed, I was greeted by a 3^rd friendly associate, paid $ 48.25 and was well on my way.
On top of that they send in your info to the dmv immediately. Cheapest in town without a coupon and stellar customer service. I will be back.
