Does a STAR smog check cost more than regular?

Not automatically — BAR doesn't set a price difference between STAR and regular stations. Each shop posts its own price.

  • STAR and non-STAR stations both set their own posted prices — there's no state-mandated STAR markup
  • Some vehicles are required by your DMV renewal notice to test at a STAR station, regardless of price
  • See our posted price on-site or on our services page

Prices are set per station, not by BAR — see our posted price for the exact cost.

How many times can I retest after failing?

Unlimited retests allowed.

  • Must pay inspection fee each time
  • No certificate fee until pass
  • CAP can help with repair costs

Per BAR Consumer Assistance Program guidelines.
