About OC Auto & Smog Center
Located at 1620 N Broadway, Santa Ana, CA 92706, OC Auto & Smog Center operates as a smog check and inspection station serving Santa Ana in California. This page gathers the practical details people usually look for before visiting: where it is, how to reach it, when it opens and how customers rate it. Google also lists it under auto electrical service, auto repair shop, auto tune up service, which is worth knowing if you are comparing several options in the area.
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.
Hours are published for 6 days a week. Typical hours are 8:30 amβ6 pm. It is closed on Sunday. Hours in the United States do change around federal holidays and long weekends, so a quick call before a special trip is sensible. The listed phone number is (714) 973-4652. Many businesses also reply to text messages on the same number if it is a cell phone.

I have been coming here a few years to get my smog on my car. But recently they have been terrible!! I went the first time this year for the smog, they took my $50 told me my car didn't pass (muffler delete). They printed out a magnaflow exhaust for me to purchase and put on. I argued with them letting them know this is illegal and can not be purchased in CA. ANYWAYS I went on to put my car back STOCK, I came back they charged me another $30. Went on saying well let's see if your mechanic knows what he's doing, passing smog is not guaranteed. Then went on a whole rant "anything to destroy my car" and about my car being modified. Which not even my dad does!! I was annoyed, and frustrated. Last time I come here.π«©π

Man, I hate to be the guy to break. It's everybody because this was my favorite spot. They did an oil change. They didn't put the guards back on. Then one of my sensors was showing up having to do with my brakes. I asked him to clear the code and they didn't want to. Instead they try to tell me it was some part that was going to cost thousands. I'm not saying they don't do good work. I'm just saying whatever they tell you go get a second opinion and look up videos on YouTube. It'll save you thousands of dollars like you just did for me

SCAM ARTIST! Wow this is why mechanics get a bad wrap. Took my car here for a quick smog. He never even plugged my car in. Looked at the engine and said i had a leaking valve cover gasket. No i dont i have been working on cars my whole life. Charged me $50 and proceeded to tell me he could replace the gasket for a really good price and then pass me after. SCAM Went to another smog location immediately after where they did a whole inspection since he just failed me. They confirmed i didnβt have any oil leaks and the car passed. DO NOT COME HERE! There are plenty of other places in Orange County

Iβm so grateful for the mechanics at this business! They are attentive, kind, and always reasonable with both their diagnosis and prices. My husband and I will always go to them first (for past 3 years) and have gotten windows replaced, tires replaced, βservice engineβ issues resolved, and never once have we felt like the price was too high. They will give you a piece of mind, and are also quick and thorough! If there ever is a service they donβt provide, theyβll even recommend another local business that does. Highly recommend!!
