What is a Test Only Station?
Test-Only stations are licensed by the state only to perform tests on vehicles. They are prohibited from performing any repair services. Gross Polluters can also be certified at these stations.
Who requires a Smog Check?
The Department of Motor Vehicles renewal notice will indicate whether a Smog Check is required to re-register your vehicle. Most areas of the state require vehicles to have a Smog Check performed every two years, when being sold, and when being initially registered in California.
Do I really need a Smog Check?
Not all vehicles must get a Smog Check. Smog Check need depends on the type of vehicle, the model-year, and the area in which the vehicle is registered. Additionally, some vehicles only need a Smog Check when they are being sold or being registered in California after previously being registered in another state.
What is a STAR smog check?
If your DMV notice specifically requires a STAR certified inspection, we will not be able to process your certificate at this location. You will need to visit an authorized STAR certified smog station to fulfill your registration requirements
What is the difference between a regular smog station and a STAR smog station?
STAR smog stations will be able to issue a certificate of compliance to a vehicle passing a smog check when a motorist is referred by the DMV to such a station for vehicle registration renewal. A non "star" station may not issue a certificate to the motorist's vehicle. They may however, test and issue certificates to vehicles not directed by the DMV to a "STAR" smog check station.
How can I help my vehicle pass Smog Check?
Proper and regular maintenance according to your Owner's Manual, and not tampering with the emissions control equipment are keys to passing Smog Check and lowering emissions from your vehicle. Also a good 15 minute drive helps to ensure a proper warm-up of all emission related components which helps out in the emissions part of the smog check.
What do I do if my vehicle fails Smog Check?
First and foremost we'll help explain to you why you failed and some suggestions as to what to do next. You will also need to get your vehicle repaired so it can pass its Smog Check retest in order to complete your registration.
How can I find my vehicle's smog check history?
Please refer to California Bureau of Automotive Repair website where you can enter license plate or vehicle identification number (VIN) to check the history.
What should I know about the Consumer Assistance Program (CAP)?
You may qualify for up to $500 in financial assistance to repair your car if it requires a Smog Check at a Test-Only station and failed that test. The Bureau of Automotive Repair Retirement Program is now offering $1000.00 for eligible motorists to voluntarily retire their high-polluting vehicles. If you don't think it's worth repairing the Bureau of Automotive Repair may buy your car!
How do I qualify for CAP?
CAP offers two options for consumers whose vehicles fail their biennial Smog Check.
What is a Gross Polluter?
Some vehicles that fail their smog inspections give off such high levels of pollution that a category called "Gross Polluter" was created. BAR identifies these vehicles to encourage their immediate repair. Gross Polluters are some of the worst polluting vehicles on California roadways.
