Polluters. Having a Gold Shield station repair and certify a vehicle means that
the owner does not have to return to a Test-Only station for the certification
after it has been repaired.

A Gold Shield station must have no disciplinary actions against its Automotive
Repair Dealer Registration (ARD), Smog Check station license or the licenses of
its technicians or managers.
A Gold Shield Station must meet strict testing and repair performance standards
each calendar quarter; and
submit to periodic performance inspections and monitoring.
