A car import inspection in Alberta is very detailed requiring 50%or more brake life remaining and no looseness at all in steering and suspension components, no chips or cracks in any glass, all lights including dash and interior working correct.
The insurance required inspection when buying a car over 10 years old requires that the car meet motor vehicle safety laws, and are based on the manufacturer specifications for brake wear, steering etc. This is much easier to pass as long as the car is in decent shape.
No. A safety inspection is required to insure a car if it is 12 years or older. BUT... you need insurance on the car before you can register it. So you can insure the car first and get the pink cards then take the pink cards to the registry to get the plates. The insurance company will give you 30 days grace to get the safety done.
36.00 for safety and omissions
Check in and around that car tires engine forstandards and safety
Should only take about an hour.
Nope, it's a safety hazard.
You would have to get a safety inspection. After you can take it to the Department of Motor Vehicles.
The new car manufacturers require a PDI inspection be done and any faults repaired. Alberta Canada requires a safety inspection on any dealer sold used cars, but requires no service be performed. Most dealers do an oil change and basic service so the car looks well maintained. I hope that answers your question.
Nothing. I need it for my car. Would not pass safety inspection without it.
When taking a car to an inspection service, you should look for other happy customers that will provide a reference. Because you are relying on the input from the inspection service, it is very important that it is done right.
Your question would need to include the state of residence in order to give a helpful answer. 18 states require either an annual or biannual safety inspection. For more specific state laws, refer to: http://dmvanswers.com/questions/346/Does-my-state-require-a-car-inspection
When the registration has expired. The tags on your rear license plate should have the month and year of expiration, that's when you take it to get safety and emissions inspection.
It depends on the level of inspection, more than likely they will inspect the following: both headlights tail lights all blinkers brake lights reverse lights seatbelts They usually do not inspect the actual safety of the car itself.
