Our story
About the Inspection Station
The Inspection Station has been fixing cars and running emissions tests on State Street in Orem for decades. Longtime owner Dan built the shop's name one customer at a time: tell people the truth, charge a fair price, and never sell a repair nobody needs.
Plenty of our customers have been coming here for years, and now they bring their kids' cars too. That trust is the whole business, and we treat it that way.
Meet Matt
Matt took over the shop from Dan and kept everything that made it work. He'll walk you through what's actually wrong, what it costs, and what can wait, even when the honest answer is the cheaper one.
Stop by and say hi. Matt's usually in the bay, and the shop dog is usually by the door.
Matt — OwnerHow we work
Straight answers.
Fair prices.
We tell you the truth
If it doesn't need fixing, we'll say so. If a repair costs more than the car is worth, we'll tell you that too.
You know the price first
We explain what we found and what it costs before any work starts. What we quote is what you pay.
We respect your time
Most emissions tests take about 10 minutes, walk-ins welcome. Can't make it during the day? Use the 24-hour key drop-off.
