Arroyo Smog did me right. A++++ Tom B. / Waterline
Arroyo Smog is simply THE BEST, and Bill is about the nicest, funniest and most helpful person I know! His shop is clean and comfortable and he knows EVERYTHING there is to know about his business. When my older car failed a recent smog test, he told me about a state program that would allow me to get up to $500 worth of repairs for only $20! To make a long story short, I got the repairs, passed the test, and my car's running better than it has for years. Thanks Bill and I'll see you next time.
Being fairly new to California, this was only the second time I've had to have a smog check done. The place I used two years ago was sort of unpleasant, so I came to Yelp to look for some recommendations. When I saw Arroyo Smog Check's reviews I knew I had to give him a chance.
I'm so glad I did. When I got there, there was another woman waiting for her car under the shade structure. She was a many-time repeat customer and assured me that I'd come to the right place. We enjoyed a nice conversation while he finished her car. He then deftly moved the cars around so she had a clear path out and moved my car into the check area. He told me how long it was going to take, gave me an estimate, and invited me to help myself to a cold drink from the refrigerator and wait in the shade.
I watched him work, he was thorough and precise. (My dad was a service manager for a car dealership for many years, so I have a good idea what quality service looks like.)
My car was done easily within the time estimate he'd given me. He carefully explained the online registration renewal process, commented on my license plate surround (I See Hawks in LA) and reminded me that he'd set the parking brake on my car (which he'd parked in a ready-to-drive-away position).
I shook his hand, nodded goodbye to the poster of Einstein on the wall, and left feeling like there is absolutely good in the world. Thanks so much.

Thanks Brian, I was, as always, very happy to help get you qualified for that state repair program and am further gratified that your repair cost co-payment was capped at only $20. As you know, smog repairs can run into the hundreds of dollars and with the economy as it is right now we all need to save while helping to repair the air we breathe! Good luck and I look forward to seeing you next time you need a smog check. Bill
