What We Inspect:
- Brakes: Brake components, fluid levels, possible leaks, and parking brake operation are checked for safety and proper function.
- Steering and Suspension: We inspect components such as ball joints, wheel bearings, tie-rod ends, springs, shocks, and other steering and suspension parts.
- Tires and Wheels: Tires are checked for tread depth, damage, and safe condition. Wheels and rims are also examined for defects that could affect operation.
- Lights and Signals: Headlights, brake lights, turn signals, license plate lights, and other required lighting are checked for operation and condition.
- Glass, Mirrors, and Wipers: The inspection includes the windshield, required glass, mirrors, windshield wipers, and defroster.
- Exhaust and Safety Equipment: We check the exhaust system for leaks along with required seat belts, airbags, doors, horn, and other safety equipment.
- Fuel and Underbody Components: The fuel system, floor pan, engine mounts, and other required components are inspected for unsafe conditions.
If Your Vehicle Does Not Pass:
If we find an item that does not meet Virginia safety requirements, we will explain the issue and answer your questions.
