I went to this place on a Tuesday rite after I changed an EVAP solinoid and erased the code. I let him know what I had done and he told me I need to drive it a couple days for the sensors to recalibrate. Not only did he let me know this but hooked up his scanner to show me. He did this at no charge Instead of just trying to smog it and charge me for the service. So I went back in once all the sensors were calibrated and he got me rite in and rite out for $60. Really friendly man and knows what he's doing. If you need a smog this is a definite place to go

I took my car to Tehachapi Automotive to get a smog check. The staff were very pleasant, smoged my car in less than 30 minutes. Then I learned that they can also renew my registration tags wow instead of going to DMV and wait in line for hours they took care of it in fifteen minutes . Thank you Tehachapi Automotive for the great service. I will recommend you to all my family and friends .

I always have the best experience here. I’m always able to get in and out, the wait times are great even when it’s busy, and everyone is always super helpful. This place has been my go to for years.

Very fast smog and registration. Very friendly too! Nice service. Had a pleasant experience. ☺

Dog friendly. They allow dogs into the waiting area and even have a jar of dog treats. Very friendly and helpful staff. A++

I was reading the reviews posted earlier and do not under stand such negativism. Really.

I have taken my car to Tehachapi Automotive for repairs for several years. Some were major repairs and others were like smog. Each time a quote was given and explained pretty much in detail what it was for. I have found that Jon is a very good mechanic and knows what he is doing.

Yes, to have a car's problem diagnosed there is a diagnostic fee. It has taken time for them to look for the problem, and figure out the solution, for this they need to be paid. Nothing is free. Now to do the actual work will be a separate quote.

Now if you go somewhere else and have the work done they will check the car out first, or should, and you will be charged, even if it isn't listed as a diagnostic fee. If they just do the work without checking, only going by your input, then you are responsible if it doesn't cure the problem.

Somethings I don't like about life is paying retail for products.

Tehachapi Automotive buys NAPA parts for their repairs. Most parts come with a 2 year guarantee. Yes, they buy it (the parts) at wholesale and we the customer pay retail, this is part of life. Every shop, store does this, its part of doing business.

If we could do the repair ourselves we would, I used to and enjoyed it, but not today. Cars are too complicated. Jon has special training that we do not have, and the fancy equipment that we could not afford.

Am I happy with the work that Jon and the rest of the crew have performed on my car, YES. Will I go back to Tehachapi Automotive again, YES.

Keep up the good work, even if some do not appreciate it.
