Auto repair in the United States is split between independent shops, dealership service departments and national chains. Independents handle most routine work (oil changes, brakes, tune-ups, check-engine diagnostics) at lower labor rates and often specialize in one make or in imports; dealers keep factory tools, software and warranty authority; chains sell speed and standard pricing on maintenance items. Most shops charge a diagnostic fee, credited toward the repair if you go ahead, and quote parts and labor separately. Certification matters: look for ASE-certified technicians and, in many states, a state repair license posted at the counter. Written estimates are required by law in most states before work begins, and you are entitled to your old parts if you ask.

The business lists hours on 5 days of the week. The most common schedule is 8 am–5 pm. It is closed on Saturday, Sunday.

We had a difficult situation with my car getting totaled and 4 different tow companies made me wait at least an hour, then said they didn’t have the right equipment and didn’t know anyone who did. As soon as I described what happened to Pierre, he got his crew and came right over. I saw him be an excellent leader, show incredible care for the well-being of his workers, display incredible intelligence and capability, and do it all with a smile. This company was an absolute life saver and they even helped me to get everything out of my car before towing it away. Pierre is amazing and this company is phenomenal. I highly recommend them!

I’ve serviced my car here multiple times, but only later realized the owner is seriously overcharging. Nearly $200 just for the most basic service (oil, oil filter, inspection, tire rotation) is outrageousβ€”well above fair market price. Worse, he pushed unnecessary services, claiming they were β€œrecommended by the manual,” which simply isn’t true. I checkedβ€”the manual doesn’t even mention them. I trusted this place because of the five-star ratings, but that trust is gone. Completely misleading and disappointing. I recommend checking nearby shops before you come here. Of course I am reviewing with a fake name to avoid unnecessary trouble - just do some research and you will save money.

Went in during my lunch and was seen right away, even without an appointment. Everything was so smooth and easy. I just asked for a smog check and he was able to get it done! I’d recommend anyone needing one to come here. Everything was put right into the DMV system automatically & he explained it all very clearly. Great service & experience for the price I paid!

Understandably, I can relate to the many 5 star reviews regarding Foothill Smog Auto Repair. Like many car owners, I've had my car serviced by a few other shops over the years. However, no other shop can compare to this shops ownership care and expert knowledge. Not only do I have our family cars smog certified, but all general maintenance and periodic stuff that happens because of o ur long commutes.

Avo is the owner of Foothill Smog and he is great! He has been servicing my family's cars for years. He provides exceptional service at a competitive price. Often he has found things wrong with my vehicles that were covered under warranty and pointed me back to the dealer (Mercedes and Lexus) which saved me thousands of dollars (and cost him money). He runs an honest repair shop and I trust him completely.
