Hayward Smog Auto Repair

Only smog check open on a Sunday. Service was professional and efficient. Pricing is transparent and reasonable, fair. Waiting area had comfortable seating and watched winter Olympics during service. Actual smog check took less than 15 min. Most importantly, my 14 year old truck passed on the first try!

I highly recommend Hayward Auto Shop! I brought in my 2014 Mercedes CLA 250 to have the thermostat replaced. They did an excellent job—the car is running perfectly now and the engine temperature is stable. The staff was professional, the turnaround was fast, and the pricing was very fair for a Mercedes repair. It’s hard to find a shop you can trust with European cars, but these guys are the real deal. I’ll definitely be back for future service!

Quality Mechanics Shop with reasonable prices. Vin and his crew are pros at what they do. If your car is up to code, smog is a breeze and time efficient. Their pricing matches their quality of work, which is no less than impressive. Vin worked on my work van, timing chain, brakes and engine maintenance and repair. He also swapped out the transmission for a new one on my Lexus more than a year ago and it works excellent! Getting my brakes done asap! I waited to do this review because i wanted time to speak for his work... and it doesnt disappoint. He does it all, Definitely my favorite shop. 👌

Absolutely terrible, stay far away from this business. I would give 0 stars if I could. I brought in my Lexus to have some basic maintenance done, and Vin wanted to charge me a ridiculous price to "repair" things that didn't need repair (I got second opinions). Whats more, he was very rude during the entire process and seemed racist towards people who were not of his race. Do yourself a huge favor and take your money elsewhere, worst service I ever recieved.

Smog due on my pre 1996 Tbird, They did a great job, quickly and painless. In and out in a reasonable time considering what needs to be done to certify a OBD 1 car. I will be back.
