ASK THE DOG
Your smog history. Your next step.
Check past inspections and whether your vehicle needs a STAR station before you visit.
What the result means.
STAR required
Use a currently certified STAR station.
Referee directed
Follow the Referee instructions for your vehicle.
No STAR requirement
Call with your year, make, model and fuel type so we can confirm our station can inspect it.
No result or an unclear requirement
Check the VIN and your DMV notice. Missing records do not mean the vehicle is non-STAR or eligible for an offer.
