Owning a vehicle carries a lot of responsibility, from ensuring preventative maintenance is completed to knowing and following the laws. Additionally, for every Texan motorist, an annual vehicle inspection must be completed. While some may consider this an inconvenience, it is critical for ensuring safety, decreasing environmental impact, and keeping our roadways safe. At Scrubway Wash & Lube, we will gladly perform your inspection quickly and efficiently so you can get back on the road again in no time. Not only that, but we take the time to answer any questions you have, go over the details once we’re finished, and repair issues that might have been found during the inspection, giving you peace of mind.
A Closer Look at the Annual Vehicle Inspection
If you’ve ever wondered why vehicles in Texas need to be inspected annually, the reason starts and ends with safety. By ensuring all registered vehicles meet certain safety standards, Texan drivers can feel more confident as they navigate the state, whether they’re simply driving in their county or beyond.
We’re extremely knowledgeable in the strict guidelines that come with vehicle inspections, which makes us a great choice to have by your side. Our skilled team follows the inspection checklist, ensuring each detail is evaluated, including the emissions test if needed. Some of the items on that checklist include safety features, such as making sure your horn, seatbelts, and braking system work. We’ll also assess your headlamps and taillamps, as well as the turn signals. If your vehicle has window tinting or coating, we will also check to make sure it is within acceptable limits.
As mentioned, once we’re finished, we will review the findings with you and answer any questions you might have. You might wonder if you need an annual inspection if you have a multi-year registration. The answer is yes. You’ll also need to get a safety inspection completed if you’re a college student with an out-of-state registration. Finally, if you’ve just moved to Texas, you have 30 days to complete the inspection.
We Can Fix Any Issues Found During the Inspection
One of the main reasons for having your inspection completed by our team is the skill and knowledge we bring to the table. However, another reason noted above is that we can fix issues that prevent your vehicle from passing the test. This is significant, as having our team not only complete the inspection but also handle any vehicle repairs saves you time. Plus, you’ll know that the repairs were completed by a competent team of technicians with access to the latest tools and techniques. Whether it’s new windshield wipers, lights for your license plate, or something in between, you’ll drive away confident that your vehicle is in tip-top condition.
