WHAT’S INVOLVED IN A SAFETY INSPECTION

There are many things that affect the safety of a used car or truck, many of them not obvious or simply unknown to the average driver. Regardless, safety problems can manifest at the worst possible time. Regular inspections keep drivers informed of the condition of their cars. If a vehicle fails inspection, it should be repaired as soon as possible.

  1. WHAT’S INVOLVED IN A SAFETY INSPECTION? BY-Halifax Auction Direct

  2. Introduction Drivers often don’t think of how safe their vehicles are until a problem arises. Unfortunately, by the time they realize there’s a safety issue, it may be too late.

  3. Why is a Safety Inspection Important? There are many things that affect the safety of a used car or truck, many of them not obvious or simply unknown to the average driver. Regardless, safety problems can manifest at the worst possible time.

  4. What’s Involved in a Safety Inspection? Estimates suggest more than 30,000 parts make up the average vehicle, and perhaps a few thousand parts directly affect safety. Professional technicians follow a standardized checklist. In states that don’t require periodic inspections, the checklist may be more general.

  5. Headlights fail if they are inoperative or have cracked lenses. Lamps also will not pass if they are incorrect or different colors, or if the lenses are excessively fogged.

  6.    Tires fail if their average tread depth is lower than 1/32” or any cut exposes the belts. Tires also will not pass because of dry rot, bubbles, shifted belts or other damage . A windshield will fail if there are any cracks directly in the driver’s vision.

  7.     Seat belts fail if they are frayed, don’t latch, fail to retract or if the auto-locks don’t engage .Brakes fail if there is metal-to-metal contact between shoes and drums or pads and rotors.
