Which Parts of a Vehicle Are Checked During PA State Inspection?

Our auto shop is qualified to perform PA state inspections, so you can bring your car to us when you need to ensure your vehicle is safe and legal. During the annual car inspection, we will examine the following parts of your car:

Exterior: We’ll ensure your license plate is secure and well-lit, your windows are not scratched or cracked, your bumpers are intact, and all your doors, windows, and wiper blades operate effectively. Then, we’ll test your headlights, brake lights, and turn signals to see if they need to be replaced.
Interior: Once we finish with the exterior inspection, we will look at the interior of your vehicle, testing the steering wheel, the horn, and the brakes. We’ll examine the brake pads to see if they are worn or damaged and test the parking brake to ensure it works right. We’ll finish the interior inspection by checking each seatbelt.
Engine check: Next, we’ll lift the car’s hood and inspect the engine and other components for leaks or damage. At this point, we also ensure your vehicle meets emissions inspection requirements in Philly and the surrounding areas.
Chassis: Finally, we go underneath your car and check for wear or damage on the shocks, axels, coil springs, or frame. We’ll also look over the exhaust system and tires.

When to Get PA State Inspection Done on Your Vehicle

If you live in Pennsylvania, you will need to have your vehicle inspected every year. You will know it’s time for another PA state inspection by examining the sticker on the lower driver’s side corner of the windshield. Your vehicle must pass the assessment on the last day of the month that the car is due for inspection. If your car is due for emissions inspection in PA, make a plan to come into our auto shop as soon as possible.

Whether you need a car, truck, or SUV emissions testing in Pennsylvania, our auto technicians can perform these essential vehicle inspections and diagnostics in our Philadelphia, PA, garage.

Cars built in 1996 or earlier have been equipped with computer systems that control engine performance. If this computer is functioning correctly, the vehicle’s emissions will meet federal standards. However, if any part of it is malfunctioning, the car will not meet the emissions inspection requirements.

During our on-site emissions testing, our technicians will visually inspect all emissions components before plugging the vehicle into a computerized emissions tester for On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) tests. If the tester detects an issue, it will identify the areas where repairs are needed. If no errors are found, the vehicle meets the car, SUV, or truck emissions standards.
