Smog Test
Smog testing is designed to help reduce and regulate toxic gases being emitted into the atmosphere. Every vehicle releases these gases but monitoring them allows us to better protect the environment from excessive emissions.
In most states, it is necessary to have a smog test performed every two years. Smog tests are a standard procedure that takes little time to complete but is very necessary to your vehicle's function and your responsibility as a driver.
The expert mechanics at Steinbacher's Auto Service complete smog testing on a routine basis. We will be more than happy to service your vehicle at your earliest convenience. Reach us at (570) 320-9765 to schedule your smog test today. We’ll find the soonest available appointment for you.
Smog Check for All Emissions
There are a few different kinds of emissions that are emitted by your vehicle – we check for all of them, including:
- Carbon dioxide
- Hydrocarbons
- Oxygen
Our team will quickly determine whether your vehicle is meeting emission requirements. If you aren't, you may face fines from law enforcement.
Convenient Smog Testing
Your smog test should take no longer than an hour for our experts to complete. You can either wait for your vehicle or come back to pick it up whenever you have time. We work to make our servicing as convenient as possible for our customers, so let us know what you need.
Great Rates on Smog Testing
Because smog testing is required by law, it would be easy for us to charge a lot for a simple test. But we value the service of our customers and want to assist you as much as we can. We are proud to offer competitive rates on smog testing to serve as many drivers in the area as possible.
We will provide you with pricing information before we begin testing, but if you have questions or concerns regarding our rates, please don't hesitate to get in touch with us about them.
Smog Test Failure
There is a chance, of course, that your vehicle will fail the smog test. There are a few different reasons for this.
Your car could fail the test because:
- You need an oil change
- The spark plugs on your vehicle are worn out
- Your gas cap is loose or leaking
- Your air filter is dirty
- You have a rich air/fuel mixture
Whatever the issue is, our team can let you know the cause of the problem and the best way to move forward. Our company offers comprehensive vehicle repairs, so we'll be more than happy to diagnose the issue and provide fast and affordable repairs so you can get back on the road as soon as possible.
Please note that if your vehicle does fail a smog test, you'll need to have the issue addressed. Otherwise, you run the risk of being prosecuted or fined.
