RPM Smog

Definitely the easiest, fastest, and cheapest place i have found to smog my Expedition. They were polite and professional. And i was in and out in no time. Thanks for the awesome customer service.

Lots of reviews say they dont honor coupons and indeed they did add the certificate fee onto the sale price of $ 39.95 but it’s still cheaper than other places and my car passed within 20 minutes. I have no problems with RPM and would go back.

RPM turned my truck away for a smog. They said they don’t smog trucks that have the exhaust in front of the the rear wheel. That said it could damage their equipment. I thought it was a pretty BS excuse. Exhaust probes don’t just fall out. My buddy owns a smog shop in another county, I’ve spent a lot of time using his lifts. Fair enough though, it’s their equipment, not mine. I told them to buy a clamp to ensure the prob stays put, problem solved. The tech looked dumbfounded when I suggested this solution.
I drove half mile down the road and went to Smog and Go. They smogged my truck no issues. I told the smog tech about RPM, he said that was a strange reason to turn away business. He also said Smog and Go get a lot of business from RPM.
RPM, you have one hell of a business model going. Thanks for nothing.

Took my truck in for a smog check earlier today. Very friendly staff. I came in during a slow time so I was in and out in 15 – 20 minutes. I used the coupon from their website as well, making it $ 48 and some change out the door, very affordable. Definitely will bring my other vehicles here.

Rude, condescending employees here. Will never go back. They never sent the passed smog test to DMV.

I’ve taken my cars here 3 times (6 if you count the retests for one particularly troublesome year) and have received excellent, professional, prompt service each time. After reading all the poor reviews, I felt I had to add my good experience. The young man who works out front is a sweetheart and always has a smile and warm greeting. I’m in and out in 30 min. They have always honored the coupon from their website when I bring it up on my smartphone. Several food places are nearby. What more can you ask for from a smog check station?

About every other year I get the CA DMV smog notice, and this is the place I have been taking it, believe it has been 3 times total. And, honestly I have never had the experience of some of the posts on here. I went there today, two young guys who were very polite took care of my car. I used the coupon and it came to $ 48.20 with the certificate and they electronically send it to DMV. When I got there, they were getting ready to go to lunch, so I hurried and gave them my keys. I had forgotten they do go to lunch from 12 – 1 before I left. This is a small business, and maybe it might be inconvenient for some that they close from 12 – 1. But, what I do like about it; good customer service and they are efficient. There are places in walking distance to go and have a bite to eat if you have to wait. Most importantly, I like the idea that you go there for a smog test only and you don’t have to worry someone is going to try and sell you other services and such. They have magazines and the Sacramento Bee to read, while you are waiting and it goes by pretty quickly. I will continue to go there in the future.

They were quick, courteous, and the cheapest in town. The waiting room was clean and air conditioned. Accepted online coupon. I called the day before. They are closed from 12pm to 1pm.

This place is awesome I refer everyone. They are never to busy always give outstanding service. The main smog tec really knows stuff

I’ve brought my vehicles in here since they opened. I’ve never used the coupon do I can’t speak to that. I’ve always had great service and the personnel seem professional and the waiting room is large and clean. There are fast food places close by if you want to grab something while you wait. Monday’s are always busy and they take a lunch break from 12 – 1. They take their last car at 5PM. You could be waiting a bit. I think they are understaffed, so my reason for only 4 stars. But if you’re not in a hurry you’ll be ok and treated well.

Went there because of the coupon. Got there at 12:30, manager/​owner says he just sent everyone to lunch until 1. Messes up my schedule a bit but I’m already there so figure I’ll just wait of out. Finally at 1 I take the coupon and DMV info up and they say the coupon doesn’t apply because I didn’t have the actual renewal notice and they will have to «type everything in.» What a waste of time. Came to smog n go on orchard loop instead. Better service, no wait, and there’s no all staff lunch break. Geez

I had a similar experience as many of the reviews below, I did not check before I came unfortunately. The coupon is a joke they will find and reason in the world to not use it so don’t expect to. The front desk girl is unfriendly and their customer service is horrible!!! I would not recommend this place ever!!!

Took my second vehicle in this week and was in and out in less than 30 min. They remembered me from coming in last November and gave me a $ 10 discount for being a return customer. Turned out to be same as coupon price. But still a good deal with friendly staff. Plenty of places to go eat while your car gets done.

In and out with no problems :) large waiting area and a Starbucks nearby what more could you want?

Took my car here for smog check… when i pulled out my coupon that i had printed off from their website, she didnt seem to like it much. It said $ 39.95 for smog+certificate… So I go in thinking the certificate was included. My total came to $ 48.25 because the $ 8.25 was for the certificate. She stated that the certificate is a seperate charge, although it says on the coupon (smog + certificate). In addition, looking at their price menu, the total amount I paid for is exactly the regular price without coupon, basically the coupon meant nothing. So don’t waste no time printing out coupons or visiting this place.

The coupon is Bull s$$$! As the other said it doesn’t apply to Pick up trucks and SUV’s. The coupon does not say anything like that either. What the hell is the difference. They all cost the same! They did honor the coupon though saying the are «running an add».
2 ½ stars because they did honor it but only 2 ½ stars for bait and switch!

I went in with a coupon but was told it didn’t apply to suv’s. An suv is no more difficult to smog than a car, in fact my awd Jeep can’t go on the dyno and would need a tailpipe only smog check, so why can’t I use the coupon? The teenage girl that wrote me up couldn’t answer that question. She also had a poor attitude.
The smog check was completed in 45 minutes with no issues. During that time I watched the teenager turn down several other people’s coupons without good explanation.
I would not recommend this place based on poor customer service and not accepting their own coupons.
