Santa Monica Auto Service

Luck was on my side when I found Santa Monica Motors! With all the good choices in automotive care in Los Angeles I truly feel that I found the best of the best. Don and Ray are amazing with their communication, work ethic, availability and problem solving and more. Along with their fantastic team of mechanics I've found a safe place to trust not only my car care but my care!

Good service. Quick turnaround. And I like getting the digital service report via email.

Great place to get a smog check. Called in, Bob said that it would take about 30 mins but when I actually brought it in it was done in less than 15! Great service, Bob was really helpful in giving me tips on maintaining my car after the service was completed. Would definitely come back to this location in the future!

I wanted to get my smog check done before going to work on a Wed morning. Arrived at 7:55, the doors were open and I was welcomed in at 8:00 Being 1st person in line, I gave my keys to the person performing check, checked in on Yelp to redeem a special $10 off, was politely told by Bob to sit down and make myself comfortable. At 8:15 I heard "congratulations, your car had passed smog check!" and after paying for the job, was ready to leave. Couldn't be any faster and easier experience. As most reviews mention, Bob is a gentle, kind and very polite. He'll put a smile on your face and will make you feel like you did the right choice coming to this place. He gives you a little speech after you're done, sharing tips for driving and fueling, and if you need to have your registration stickers right away, he'll refer you to a place that can help. No wonder this place gets 5 stars from every customer - each one of them is truly justified.

awesome!! Always handle the tough problems. Thanks

Bob is wonderful as well as those who work here!!! Highly recommend. Fast, easy & greatly informed! Thank you!!!

I took my car in for a smog check and I can definitely say they have fast service here. Less than 10 minutes! Bob has great customer service and is helpful. I will be returning.

Patched up my Honda and got it passing Smog in no time!

This place is absolutely awesome. Went on my lunch break to get a smog check. No line and the test was over in 10 minutes. I was also able to get my car registration done too - they even had the tags on site. It's seriously a mini-DMV with WAAAAY less hassle. So happy with the service and would recommend this place to anyone.

My experience at Santa Monica Motors couldn't have been any better. I stopped in for a smog check without an appointment late in the afternoon. After Bob finished helping the gentleman in front of me, he promptly helped me and honored the $10 discount shown in the pictures on Yelp without me having to bring in a printed copy. Bob said it would be about 15-20 minutes before my car was done. Ten minutes later, my car had passed the smog check, and I was on my way. The service could not have been better, faster, or more convenient. If you need a smog check, just go here and don't even consider going anywhere else.
