Local Heroes Receives BAR SMOG STAR Certification and DMV Licenses at Santa Rosa Piner and Petaluma Corona Locations

posted on

BAR Automotive Repair

I am proud to announce that Local Heroes Auto received its SMOG STAR Certification (July 14) and DMV Registration Services License (July 11) at our Santa Rosa Piner Location within the past 2 weeks. We have also been SMOG STAR Certified at our Corona Petaluma location for over 2 years and we are SMOG Test & Repair at our Bodega Location also. In addition, our Petaluma Corona location also received its DMV Registration Services License We anticipate the DMV Registration services to by launched and available to our customers during the week of July 31, 2017. Stay tuned for even more information coming on our DMV Registration Services.  We want to Thank the departments of the Bureau of Automotive Repair (BAR) and the California Department of Motor Vehicles for their efforts in assisting us on both of these new endeavors.  Their guidance and support was invaluable.  Both of these California agencies have some amazing and professional people working for them.

I hope that the communities and residents of Santa Rosa and Petaluma, as well as all of our regular customers will feel these services are beneficial to them and help in making their busy lives a little less hectic.

Also, all 3 of locations participate in the California BAR Administered, Consumer Assistance Program (CAP), that helps assist our customers financially with Smog Repairs on their Vehicles that initially fail their Smog test.  Income-eligible consumers who meet program requirements may receive up to $500 in emissions-related repairs at a STAR Test-and-Repair station after their vehicle fails its biennial Smog Check inspection.  We will help you too with applying and we process most of the paperwork for you.  At the recent BAR quarterly advisory group meeting we attended, they are hoping to increase the funding to at least $800 for Smog related repairs.  https://www.bar.ca.gov/pdf/Repair_Assistance_Regulation_7.20.17.pdf  

For more information please see the BAR CAP website here: https://www.bar.ca.gov/Consumer/Consumer_Assistance_Program/CAP_Repair_Assistance_Program.html

Lastly, here at Local Heroes Auto we are willing to help any customer with disposing of their vehicle if they make the choice the repair costs are just too high or keeping the vehicle no longer makes sense.  We can help with the paperwork for you to participate in California BAR administered Vehicle Retirement program.  Income-eligible consumers who meet program requirements may receive $1,500 to retire their vehicle at a BAR contracted dismantler.  All other consumers may be eligible to receive $1,000.  The BAR local approved dismantler is in Windsor, CA. https://www.bar.ca.gov/pdf/Dismantlers.pdf   For more information please see the BAR CAP website here at: https://www.bar.ca.gov/Consumer/Consumer_Assistance_Program/CAP_Vehicle_Retirement_Program.html

Lastly, within the next month or so we should also receive our Brake and Lamp License at all three Local Heroes Auto Locations.  Plus we have a few more Exciting Things in the Works, all to benefit our customers and consumers- STAY TUNED!!!

I Hope everyone is having an Awesome Summer with Family and Friends!!!


Thank you to all our Customers for your patronage!!
