When you run an auto repair shop, whether in Los Angeles or San Francisco, Eureka or Needles – in fact, anywhere, in California – every now and again you are going to have a dispute with a customer. It canโ€™t be helped, because when you fail a customerโ€™s SMOG check, that customer may get angry. You have done nothing wrong.

Just Fixing Cars Is Hard Enough, but Then You Have All the Regulations

Lee McDonald Comments Off

It’s hard enough to fix cars these days in California! So many regulations! And the cars are more complex than ever. What’s worse is the government oversight by the Bureau of Automotive Repair can be onerous.

As an auto technician or station owner in California, one of the worst things that can happen to you โ€“ if not the worst โ€“ is to be on the wrong end of a decision by the Bureau of Automotive Repair. However, that doesnโ€™t mean that you donโ€™t have rights. You do, and you can make a Bureau of Automotive Repair appeal against that decision.
