RV smog check requirements in California

RVs and motorhomes have their own quirks at smog time. Here’s what California owners should know.

San Juan Auto Smog · Fair Oaks, CA

Gas-powered motorhomes are generally subject to the same smog check rules as other gasoline vehicles, which means many need a test for renewal or change of ownership.

The real challenge: fitting the rig

The hard part usually isn’t the rules — it’s finding a station with the space and equipment to test a large vehicle. Many shops simply can’t accommodate an RV.
