Vehicle Inspection Stations in Santa Maria, CA

Santa Maria, California has 41 stations across 4 ZIP codes, which is 1% of everything listed for California.

All of them sit in Santa Barbara County.

Of the 41 entries here whose register publishes license dates, 40 have a license that has not expired and 1 has one that has lapsed. That split is computed from the expiry date each register publishes, rather than taken from any status the register may print.

A lapsed record is kept on the page rather than hidden, because a reader ringing round is better served knowing which is which. Every card says plainly which state it is in.

Across the 41 entries with a recorded first-issue date, the median has held a license for 6 years. The longest-standing is Home Motors Chevrolet, first licensed in January 1990, 36 years ago.

The license classes represented here are Smog Station - Test & Repair (38), Smog Station - Test Only (3). The class is the source's own wording, not a label applied here.

This list publishes no phone numbers, so no listing drawn from it shows one. That is how the source publishes it, not a gap in this record.

The map positions were derived from the published street address through the US Census Bureau geocoder. No distance claim is made anywhere in this text; the "nearest to me" list computes straight-line distances in your own browser from your own location.
