Can a car pass inspection in NC with check engine light on?

Answer 1

No! if your check engine light is on, your car or truck wont pass because it is a good reason for the inspecting station to make you spend a bunch of money at their facility to do the repair even though under state law it doesn't matter how your car is running as long as it passes the emissions if it is required, those not required to have an emissions test will also have to undergo the repairs even though they are not required if the testing facility chooses to make you have the repairs done.So far N.C. is the current State this applies to other States may have laws protecting it,s citizens against this type of practice where the Auto-Repair barrons have a death grip on the poor.
