Plan your time
Confirmed Express sedan appointments: result within 45 minutes (see terms). Other visits: plan about 1½ to 2 hours.
Read the Express terms. Online check-in does not reserve an Express slot. Call or book first; an inspector must be available.
Service details: what to bring and what happens
Bring vehicle registration or title information, keys and any previous failed-inspection report. Tell us your vehicle class and how to reach you. The inspector checks required safety equipment, records the result and explains any rejected items. Repairs require separate authorization.
The inspection covers applicable safety systems such as brakes, steering, suspension, tires, wheels, lights, glass, mirrors, seat belts, exhaust and vehicle structure. The required checks depend on vehicle class; a safety inspection is separate from an emissions test.
Prepare online check-inFailed inspection and re-inspection
Return to the original station and registered inspector within 30 days and with fewer than 1,000 additional miles. Visual-only rechecks are free; equipment-based rechecks may have a prorated fee. Repair anywhere. Newly observed defects must also be corrected. Outside either limit, a new complete inspection is required.
