I came in for a smog check. There was an ad in the paper for a $30 smog check with certificate included. I did not make an appointment, but the total time there was less than 30 minutes. The man who helped me was courteous and genuinely wanted to help out the customers take good care of their cars. I would come back.

I had the same experience as Bobby D....Poway Accurate Automotive was great and Edith at Poway Smog was a complete liar and totally bashed PAA so she could charge $46 instead of $30 at PAA. Brian and Team at PAA were great..fast and did a complete smog test as quoted for $30.

Been there a couple time for service and they do a great job. Seem to be very honest on what they can/cannot do. Would recommend to a friend.

These guys are great. I have had several cars repaired here and they have been professional and very fairly priced. Brian is always willing to accommodate and help with a good solution for you. They are not trying to up sell you or get you to do unanticipated work. Give them a shot, you won't be disappointed.

In the North County, specifically the 4S, Rancho Bernardo, Poway, Rancho Penasquitos, Del Sur, and Scripps Ranch areas, Poway Accurate Automotive (PAA) should be your go to place for anything smog related. Bryan the owner and his business stands for integrity and professionalism. Other smog places like Poway Smog not so much. I've had both my cars serviced for a smog check and both times, I was treated courteously and was provided exemplary customer service. Allow me to relay a story of today's experience with Edith from Poway Smog. With my Pennysaver coupon that gave me a discounted price of $30, I proceeded to search for PAA, but because it had been a little time since my last visit, I had forgotten where they were located. Thinking I had found the place, I parked in front of a smog place, but there was no PAA signage. As I parked, a lady, who I found out was named Edith, came out the door and motioned me into an open bay of the business. I asked Edith if her business was Poway Accurate Automotive and she replied it wasn't. Edith stated, "We take business from them all the time." I asked Edith if she honors competitor's coupons to which she said "No", but that she would give me a good price. She even said that PAA doesn't really charge $30 and I replied that I've used this same coupon with PAA in the past. She told me that she charges $48, so I said "No thanks" and quickly exited her business to find PAA. I have zero tolerance for people with no integrity and you should too. PAA is one driveway before Poway Smog and they are locates next to a U-Haul business. PAA's tagline is "We are honest, have integrity and will do only necessary repairs." Talk to Bryan or his father, who are respectful and seem like good guys. I personally can attest that these guys have strong integrity. Edith from Poway Smog, shame on you for bad mouthing an honest business trying to make an honest buck.

I needed a STAR smog check and found a discount coupon on their Web page. Brought in the car and was told they would have it done in 15 minutes. "Sure," I thought to myself. "And I'm the Queen of Sheba." Well, ten minutes later I was out of there. I'll never doubt them again. "Under promise - over perform." Bring your business here.

Smog Check + Repair Review Poway's Precision Automotive and Poway's Accurate Automotive are sister locations with the same owner. I found these locations on Yelp, and both locations have 4+/5 ratings, so I thought it would be a great place to get my smog done. Great deal because for newer cars, $30 OTD for a smog is. Since my car is an older car, smog is $40 OTD. Other places run $50+. Keep in mind both these locations are full repair. If it fails like mine did, repair has to be done on location to qualify for free retest. Wasn't a big deal for me because the repair experience was wonderful. My car failed smog check at Precision Auto. Brought the car into Accurate Automotive for diagnosis and they determined it was a cracked manifold and clogged EGR passages. The office manager at Precision Auto (Jay) was very understanding of my situation and gave me a fair price for the repair. Appreciate both Jay and Dirk (the owner) working with me on getting this issue resolved in a professional manner. Word of advice: this location gets very busy, especially on a holiday when I went in to get the smog work done. Call ahead and schedule an appointment. You will be glad you did.

I needed a smog check. They had an awesome coupon deal, got me in the same day and had the car tested and done in about 25 minutes. Best experience ever. I will be be using them again.
