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 9:30 am–5:30 pm. It is closed on Wednesday, Sunday.

KARL GHOBADI is a up front honest individual who cares about his customers automobile needs, quality of repairs are done correctly never had to come back and KARL use quality parts for you're vehicle without breaking the bank. I've had my 2015 Honda Civic Lx and my Dodge Durango SLT worked on and both are running solid, I wouldn't go to any other shop due to the friendly, quality service and fair labor prices, the shop is also conveniently and reasonably in driving distance from my house.

Says online they close at 4pm. I went in to get a smog check and there were 4 guys working on cars still in the back. One comes to the front and just tells me "oh you have to call sometimes he left, no smog!" After I drove all the way down there! It clearly says online they are open until 4pm on Saturdays. And at the actual front door of the building it says they are open until 530pm! So they don't even honor the hours it says they are available. Bad business practices. Not a good look.

I was going to use this place because I used them before. I think they might have changed owners or managers. The man was older and I waited and waited and finally the man came to the office. I asked about a smog and he asked the year I told him. He said those take a long time to smog so it would be $98 . I said ok thx I'll pass.I left. Everyone else I talked to was $45 so my regular place which is awesome McHenry Smog was on vacation. I went here because last time they were nice sure would not recommend now. Sad.

I went in to have my car smogged due to it was one of the few places open near my house. Before I even got to the door the fuy came out and flat out said is there engine modifications. I told him I had state legal Modifications with Carb sticker and plate on them. It has a 2.2L DOHC he put in the system that it was a 1.6L and it failed miserably. I have no idea how this happened since it was just smogged previously 4 months ago and passed no problem and then got parked. I honestly don't think this guy knew what he was doing. I honestly feel like I was robbed by this guy. Then I went back and told him that there might be a mistake when he entered the engine size and he was super rude and just dismissed me. Would never recommend this place to anyone I know. Would rather drive 3 hrs to get my car smogged somewhere else.
