What Is Checked During a Virginia Safety Inspection?
A Virginia State Safety Inspection evaluates important components that affect the safe operation of your vehicle.
Our certified inspectors examine applicable safety items, including brakes, tires, steering and suspension components, headlights, turn signals, windshield wipers, mirrors, exhaust systems, and other equipment required by Virginia law.
Inspections are performed according to the Virginia State Police's official inspection requirements.
What Happens If Your Vehicle Fails Inspection?
If your vehicle does not meet Virginia's safety inspection requirements, our inspector will explain the items that caused it to fail.
Advanced Auto Tech is also a full-service automotive repair facility. Our technicians can diagnose and repair many of the problems that prevent vehicles from passing inspection, including worn brakes, damaged suspension components, lighting problems, and other mechanical or electrical concerns.
We explain the necessary repairs and provide an estimate for your approval before performing additional work.
Virginia provides a limited reinspection period for vehicles that receive a rejection sticker. Our staff can explain the applicable requirements and help you arrange any necessary repairs and reinspection.
Virginia Safety Inspection and Emissions Testing
