Emissions testing service near Spring, TX

Dishonest people,they will find something wrong that does not require fixing to get inspection sticker. I was told my power steering fluid was bad as well as the brake fluid, none of this is needed to inspect vehicle.

11-18 -19 My car over heated. Stan, who is a lair and a cheat, told me it was a thermostat. So I greed to have them fix it. Then Stan called claiming the water pump was bad and it is easier to replace the timing belt at this time so I agreed. While they changed the timing belt they mistimed the engine and destroyed it. They bought a replacement engine a “ salvaged” long block. No telling how many mile is on it! I asked that they put the parts I paid for on the salvaged engine. Almost ONE month later, 12-16-19 after repeated calls made by me I was able to pick up my car. I presented the rental car bill and Stan, who is a lair and a cheat said the owner will send me a check, but my car broke after 10 minutes of driving. They tried to claimed it was the exhaust not the engine but eventually cleared the problem. I asked Stan who is a lair and a cheat, if the new parts are on my car and he said no, but I’m going to warranty it for 3yrs 36k miles prorated. Next morning the engine light came on so I took it to the dealer it was there for 3 days while repairing the wiring and sensors that weren’t wired correctly and install missing bolts on the engine! To date my car has still overheated 2X I have exhaust fumes in the cab and most importantly I have not been reimbursed for the rental car and don’t have the parts I paid for.

The technician broke off my gas cap and preceded to tell me "it was damaged before I arrived." My gas cap was fully connected to my car before I arrived. He broke it and was rude and unprofessional. Horrible, horrible service! Is it unreasonable to expect your car to leave inspection in the same condition that it entered inspection? Do not get your car inspected here because when they damage your car they will not take responsibility!

Scammers! They are cutting corners and you don t know it! He quoted me a price to fix my catalytic converter. When the car was ready he claimed the O2 sensor was also bad and replaced it without calling first! (I still don t believe him because there is a different code for failing O2 sensors. He was just trying to get more money off me.) That added almosts another $200! He said he would do an oil change for free, but he put regular oil in it instead of the synthetic that I always use. I told them not to do anything else to my car. I took it to another place immediately to change the oil AGAIN. They told me the work had not been done properly and that they didn t replace the oil filter when they replaced the oil...that I need to take the car somewhere else to have the work cleaned up. (incorrect bolts and seals) Don t use these people if you want to actually get the work you are paying for!!!

The workers in there were so slow it took 3hours to fix brake caliper and brake caliper holder screw I was so mad the 1st to get there the last to get out!!!!!

ENIOR CITIZEN RIP-OFF. They told us the car needed repair before it could get an auto inspection. Being Senior Citizens, we told them we could not afford to have the car repaired for two months and we would bring it back for inspection after that. The man said we still had to pay for the inspection that day - and we have never, never, had to pay for an inspection if our car needed repairs. But he assured us that we would not have to pay again, just this one time. However, when we took our car back two months later, as we told him, we were told we would have to pay a second time, that we should have had it repaired in 10 days. We reminded him of what we were told and he still insisted on a second payment. Lying for money is not acceptable, especially to Senior Citizens who have to carefully pay for anything.
