No. California doesn't offer free smog checks and BAR doesn't set inspection prices, so a coupon is the simplest way to pay less in Corona. Income-eligible owners can get help with repairs or retiring a car that fails through BAR's Consumer Assistance Program, but not with the test itself.
Yes, at a STAR station. 5 of the stations with a coupon in Corona are STAR certified. If your DMV notice says "STAR station", use one of those coupons.
