I can’t say enough good things about Santa Monica Motors Smog. We came in needing work on our catalytic converter and a wheel bearing, and the team here handled it with care, professionalism, and incredible patience. My husband has millions of questions (seriously!), and Ray answered every single one without rushing or brushing him off. He explained the diagnostics clearly, laid out the repair options, and even gave us honest advice about what didn’t need to be fixed right away — no upselling or pressure, just transparency. The work was done on time, the price was fair, and our car runs like a dream now. It’s hard to find a shop that combines technical skill with genuine customer service, but these folks nailed it. Highly recommend — especially if you value honesty, clear communication, and quality work. We’ll definitely be back (hopefully not too soon though!).

Khatija, thank you for the glowing review! We're thrilled to hear that your experience at our shop exceeded your expectations. Our team takes pride in providing exceptional customer service and transparent communication throughout the repair process. We're delighted that your car is running smoothly now. We look forward to serving you again in the future.

Ray, and the shops level of customer service is above and beyond. They installed a brand new battery at no charge because they may have caused an issue cleaning the terminals. It was not definitive that it was their fault, yet they gave us a brand new battery. Who does that in this day and age?? I would say this shop is exceptional in all ways. Believe all the 5 star reviews and take your vehicle there for service.

Dear Missy, Thank you for your amazing review! We're thrilled to have exceeded your expectations. Our team is committed to providing top-notch customer service, and we're glad you experienced this first-hand. We're grateful for customers like you. Happy driving!
