A Plus Smog & Muffler Reviews

Jackie Greene

A plus Smog & muffler is a great HONEST place. They have done a lot of work for me and it's always done right the first time.

Amber Gardner

BEWARE! Complete RIP OFF. I called the shop because my car had a service engine light on, I was told over the phone to bring it in, and the charge to diagnose it would be 150$ the exact words of the technician were ' weather it takes 10 min or 4 days, we will find out what it needs, the charge is will be 150$' I took it in, 2 days latter, they call and say we need another 200$ to diagnose it. I said no, I went to get my car ASAP! I knew I was being scammed. I asked for my 150$ back, John said 'Call on Monday with your card and I will get it too you' I called on Monday and he said NO, we won't be refunding you!!!!. They Never gave me any paperwork or work order, Complete Fraud. BEWARE

who are you

Buisness was apparently too busy to give us any estimate or quotes when asked for a later date I was told 'I'm booked all year' must be real successful to be able to turn down any current or future buisness

Been around the world, military, civilian, and have worked with many shops that do repairs. I was recommended to have a bit of work done here, at A Plus, by a custom shop down the street. Now, I will GO TO NO OTHER PLACE, because A Plus Smog & Muffler is by far the most efficient, hardest working, and timely business in the Inland Empire. Steve, John, and the ENTIRE CREW have done more than exceptional work on my; Engine Mounts, Thermostat, Water Pump, Alternator - and the skilled customer service displays a highly trained, knowledgeable, informative, certified mechanical staff. Currently I had some sounds from my wheels, (and they knew right away what they were working with) and now they are taking care of my Wheel Bearings and Tie Rode Ends! Good looking on the Brakes too, Steve!Great work done at an incredible price. Fast, friendly and reliable, when you know the dealer should just tell you to come here, to A Plus, from now on!Our family is ever grateful and feeling much safer driving our vessel! Thank you A Plus, Respect.

Came here because they own the website mercedeskeyrepair.com and I needed a key for my Mercedes. They made me the wrong key which they then blamed on me for not specifying my car had keyless start. They then told me they couldnt even make the right key when I asked. They should be ashamed to call themselves mechanics.Also when I asked on the phone if they used cheap Chinese keys they said they have Mercedes logos and are probably Mercedes keys, lol. Key does not have a mercedes logo and is obviously a cheap Chinese made key.

Bobby Henriquez

Great service and price Steve the person who helped me out was so helpful with the repair of my car. I'm so happy I chose this shop over any other. My car feels great and 1000 times better of what it felt like

Sharlene Realegeno

Such a great place. Everyone is friendly and helpful. Steven has excellent customer service. Prices are reasonable. Service is fast and done properly. Will recommend to everyone and anyone.

Marley Hughes

Very good customer service and fair prices. Haven't had any issues with my car since I took it here a few weeks ago.

Jared Rowell

I brought my wifes 2012 Mercedes here for some maintenance and an oil change and to have a tire repaired. Very reasonable $ price wise. Several hundred dollars cheaper than the dealership. Brought in my 2006 Toyota Tundra. AC went out the day we were leaving for Mammoth Lake and John the owner repaired it in less then a couple hours and got us back on the road! I also brought my Camping Trailer that I was locked out ofit had a busted lock John was able to get it unlocked in a matter of minutes. He showed great customer care and service!!! As a result my parents and Mother-in-law now use him as well. Thank you A+ Smog!!

spencer craft

Went there to get my lock and keys worked on. My car worked great for a while but then started having major electrical problems. Talk to the guy over there and kept blaming the problems on everything else. Very unprofessional, horrible business morals.

edjuana hall

Came to shop for help with repairs , thinking they were helping me instead getting over me because i didn't have knowledge charged me DEALERSHIP PRICES. I would not recommend coming here espically if your a female!!!! Will be filling a complaint with BBB.

Frank A HANIFF

Nice clean facility with a charming, smiling young receptionist.Everybody knows me by name.Expert service-an Auto Club member-ensures this.Would recommend to everyone. Reasonable prices..

First off, been going here 10 years, replace water-pump twice, brake bleed initially, felt good with Christian ownership. They let me bring own parts which was a plus. Two years ago, got a rattle in exhaust, they replaced whole system with new muffler and cat. Got engine code right after, they forgot to hook-up o-2 sensors, no biggy, fixed it myself. Must add, welds on new exhaust were wonderful, I am a back-yard welder. Here comes 2018, my jeep is telling me with code-reader that my sensor in distributor is bad, either camshaft or crankshaft, forgot, it is in distributor. I take to my favorite place because state wants a smog check, the the heavy duty one required by state. They oblige, I overhear owner telling his staff, 'I might not make payroll next month.' He didn't know I heard him. My Christian values sink in, tell the mechanic I have all these parts for radiator repair, why don't you put them in for me if cost is reasonable. We agreed on price and felt good to help out shop. I come back 2 hrs later, smog guy tells me it didn't pass, need new cat and O-2 sensors plus diagnostic. I am astonished, my cat replaced by you two yrs ago with less than 2000 miles (this is a rock-crawler, very limited use) is bad? He states those cats are cheap, don't last long. I agree to replace o2 sensors because I have never replaced them (1997), told them to hold off on cat because there is no way it is bad after 2000 miles. I get jeep back, tell me to drive for 50 miles to clear codes, for some reason, they replaced my number 1 cylinder spark plug, never asked why, forgot I replaced wires and plugs last year. I take Jeep in next few days after putting miles on it to clear codes, nothing, codes never popped for me. Amazingly, when smog guy starts up jeep he gets code for mis-fire on cylinder 1, can't do recheck until more repairs. Needs total tune-up with wires and plugs. I tell them to park jeep on side of street, will pick up and do work myself. Order factory parts from mopar, took two weeks for back-order, did simple job myself and put 100 miles on it to clear codes. My code reader showed no hits, very clear. Take to shop for smog re-check, smog guy tells young guy to check for codes, tell customer he is late and will have to leave jeep. Jeep is a play-toy, was planning on leaving and always tell them to take your time, no hurry. Overhear code reader tell smog guy, who is busy, say codes are clear. I wait for an update for a few minutes, code-reader guy approaches and states your system has not cycled, drive it for many more miles. At this time I know this is not the same shop I have spent thousands of dollars at, a sham. I drive it 2 miles west, have another shop test and it passes easily, cat is 0%, no issues at all. Don't go here, either not same Christian owner, or went sleazy.

Wendy Fenandez

Worst customer service ever. I paid $60 for a smog check which I didn't even pass.. then when I asked mechanic what was wrong with my car he said I had to pay another 100 dollars just to find out what was wrong with it.. no courtesy no customer service at all. Then they told me if I find out what's wrong with my car that I still have to pay another $60 to take the test again. In there own shop.... worst ever... I just got taken for my money....

Shirley Sal

We got towed here because the AAA lady recommend it. They charged $85.50 including a 10% AAA discount just to look at the car and tell us it needed a new transmission. Guy didn't even get dirty and made that munch is a matter of 3-5 minutes. Most of it was talking. This is ridiculous. We had our car towed home and the transmission repair was less than half the price we were given here. Do not let AAA talk you into goimg here. PLEASE

T Holland

This place is horrible. One of the men from their shop stole my tools from the back of my truck and they admitted to taking them. They took advantage of their policy to exploit their customers. they are money hungry pigs and Jon B promised to reimburse me 50 when the tools are really worth 200+ dollars, and then when i called to ask when would be a good time to pick the money up he lowered it to thirty dollars and he had the females that work for him be his lil messenger he wouldn't even get on the phone to handle the matter. I kept asking why would he say 50 and then lie and say he never told me that and all i would get was 30. After this i do not want to deal with them at all. i would have given them half of a start but it wouldn't allow me. don't go here if you want good services. and i will be warning my friends and family about this place as well. Bad business very bad

Ruben Delacruz

Been taking my cars here for past 8 yrs. Price is reasonable. Service is great. Mostly maintenance like brakes, oil changes, and smog checks. I always bring the cars in before any long distance trips. They keep my 2000 Nissan SUV, 2005 Toyota Tacoma and 2008 V8 running in top form.

Vee Ramirez

Totally, RIP OFF! I wouldnt even give this place a star. Worst customer service. They werent helpful at all and payed so much for them to say things I couldve read on google.

Dwayne Davis

John Alvarado as well as the staff of A+ smog were very helpful.. They were able to smog my SUV as well as my Motor Home in one afternoon. Very knowledgably and respectful. Highly recommend!

Jesus Becerra

I will never come here ever again. I came in about a month ago to get my alternator replaced. I literally waited almost 5 hours for them to complete the job. Ever since I got the car back from them the serpentine belt had been making a noise. It never made any noises before I took my car in. So I took my car to another mechanic and it turns out that they didn't put the serpentine belt on right and one of the pulleys has fallen off.

Reuben Cano

I took my car in to have the oil change. I had a great experience with John and his team. Everything was handled very professionally and great customer service.Thank you!

M Jimenez

John was attentive, polite, and informed me along the way of what was going on. His staff was helpful too. Highly recommended

Laura W

Had a big discrepancy with this place and rated it with one star until they called me to apologize, communicate what had happened and offered to rectify the situation. I'm really surprised and grateful for their effort. I will be taking my car in for a free oil change and see how that goes. Until then I will re-rate them with 4 stars.

Jason Chafin

These guys are great. Love their drop-off and pick-up service. Also, they're great mechanics.

Dolphin Fan

I made an appointment to have my tail pipe repaired and was done on time. They explained what needed to be done and was done right. Job well done.

Christopher Guillen

And you're the best... around... The oil changes are $24.95, for goodness sake!

Dennis Moffet

Beyond professional. above average integrity and honesty. Great work!

Daniel L. P.

They basically robbed me $900 without ever fixing or even tell me what the problem was.hard to believe I found better mechanics on craigslist, much better than those clowns.

alberto plascencia

John Guntrum

Warren Craig

Took us in on short notice - performed the required work in an outstanding manner and on time. Thanks John.

Pastor Booker

They at A Plus Smog and Muffler have always treated me exceedingly well! Fast, thorough, considerate and professional!
