Dropped my car on Monday, they were going to fix catalytic converters they said parts didn’t come in until late on Thursday night, they said they were going to start on the car today Friday .. car not ready because they couldn’t take out the bolts from car …The main guy is rude and I feel they are taking advantage of me because I’m a woman… now the car not ready until who knows when … the guy in charge is rude and hangs up when customers still talking to him

Vehicle owners beware!!!!!!! This place is 100% shady !!! Took my vehicle in for a simple smog check and it took 4 hours!!! Then they said they couldn’t do it and still charged me and wouldn’t give my car back till I paid them !!! Yes they held my car hostage . Took the car to Little Worley’s auto in Hanford and it was done in 30 minute with absolutely no problems. I posted a review about this place and the owner got snooty and began calling me names when he saw me at the gym. Definitely not a ethical or even safe place to go !!!!

Do not take your vehicle to this shop I repeat do not take your car to this shop you will get more problems then what you took it in to get repaired for. And if you have a smog voucher there is other shops that accept the voucher I highly suggest you take it to another shop. you will thank me later. If I could give zero stars I would!

Incapable of smoging a vehicle after State B.A.R. smog inspection. This business failed my vehicle for "tapering" and directed me to the state examiner. I went and was informed that there was a mistake on how I was failed. Turns out my vehicle was being tested incorrectly for years [I was a customer here for about 3 years]. I was told I should go back to the facility that I got tested at so they can retest it with trust it was inspected and as they could look up my vehicle to see it is not tapered to check if he could test it correctly and/or be retrained if the vehicle did not pass their visual inspection again. If my vehicle failed its emissions test I get it and I was willing to pay to attempt again on a new test. They wanted no part of correcting their mistake and refused all service. I have been tested correctly for the first time, by another facility. Main St Auto Clinic lost me as a costumer.

Took my car in for a smog after replacing the battery. The computer was not ready to accept a smog just yet and instead of telling me that, the tech. Juan Ramirez, ran it through the entire process, failed the smog, charged me $40 and said too bad so sad. It will cost you another $40 to bring it back. Talked with several other people in the smog business and each one said that they would have let me know to drive the vehicle before taking the test. One even showed me an easy way to tell if a Chrysler/Jeep products computer is ready for a smog. I have nine other vehicles that I WILL NOT be bringing to this place. I was the only car there so they looked like they need the return business. I hope the $40 was worth losing a customer. Find a more honest and customer friendly place. I will just go back to my previous smog shop.

Was told to come in at 830. Put it in my calendar as 830-930. Got there at 9 and was told I was supposed to been there at 8 and had already filled my spot with another car. 🤨 Still took me In tho only to call and tell me he couldn't figure it out and that my car had been in a wreck and because it had been he didn't Wana keep working on mine and trying to figure it out? So just not gonna help me because it has been in an accident and there were wires messed up from it. Isn't that what you do? Thought this was a mechanic. Name says auto clinic? So instead decided to tell me to go ahead and take it somewhere else they didn't Wana do the work. Not a problem! Thanx for the help! But I will say, other than that, they were very nice people very polite. Just didn't Wana help fix my car.

If you plan on going to this place, don’t count on hearing tools and such clanging around as they efficiently work on cars to get them in and out. I had an appointment for 8:30am and was told after the fact that they would have my truck for hours and maybe in to the next day. I thought 8:30 was in the general timeframe of when they would get my vehicle in to start looking at it. They don’t seem to value the customers time. They don’t have very many mechanics and they were already on break early in the day at the same time. John is very friendly, but that’s about the only positive thing I have to say about this place that needs to be more respectful of their customers time.

I took my car here after noticing an oil leak. They were able to find the problem and fix it within the day. Service was high quality and fast. John was very kind and patient when explaining what needed to be done. I will definitely be coming back with any future car issues!

Accidentally Went to this Smog instead of the One a few stores down, Owner ONLY cares about money and is not helpful at all. Save yourself the trouble and go a couple stores down to TriMark or any other Smog. A lot more reasonably priced and better customer service. Guaranteed a lot faster too, told me 20-25 minutes after my 2nd time returning took about an hour instead. These Guys Don’t Offer discounts at all, even if you’re a returning customer which almost any other Smog Check WILL do for you. Payed $70+ for my first time and $80+ for the second when I passed and could’ve gone anywhere else and gotten it for half of what I ended up paying Overall.

They are fast. But, like many others on these reviews I did not know my truck would not be ready because I recently reset a fuse. I heard that other smog services WILL check with the customer about this BEFORE the service is done and perform the service for a cheaper price. I paid $70 and my truck was "not ready". I think it is poor integrity to not check with and educate customers about this common problem. Alternatively at least offer a discount for me to return later, 50% or even 25% off. Please improve customer service to match competitors.

They billed the state $800 and supposedly fixed out truck so it can pass smog . Couple days later the check engine light turns on , we call them set up an appointment, turns out they want $600 dollars to fix it … when supposedly they had fixed the problem already !!! Don’t go to this shop save your money ….. BASICALLY JUST SCAMMING THE STATE AND THE CUSTOMERS.

I been going here for years to get my vehicle smog! Ever time I have had a great experience. Not only was I told estimated cost but the step I would have to do if it failed. My recent vist was a smog check and an A/C recharge. I thought it was going to be an expensive fix due too it blowing hot air. Turned out to be out of freon. Any another place could have taken advantage of me and said I needed to replace things. But nothing but integrity here. This why I will not go anywhere else.

I came here to get my smog checked and they were very quick and very nice! I really appreciated that since it was my first time doing this on my own.

Hello guys, I do not recommend taking your car to this place, especially if Juan Ramirez helps you. Terrible place to get a smog test done. Usually they will tell you that it has a fault and they will want to put you in a DMV program to take advantage of it. My truck did not pass the smog test, he did not tell me what it really had when he knew perfectly well what the fault was. I took it to my mechanic and it was a hose adjustment, that simple. I took it to another place obviously more professional and as if nothing happened it passed the test. Please read the reviews when you go to take your cars to a place to get tested, but definitely do not go to this place please.

If I could give zero stars, I would. Unfortunately, that's not an option. We were charged $200, and the state was billed $800, but the issue was never fixed. Despite this, they still charged us that amount. Additionally, they tried to charge us another $600 to "fix" a problem that should have been addressed initially. After consulting with another auto shop, we were informed of a simple, affordable fix that we could do ourselves.
