Exención de Inspección de Emisiones para Vehículos en Carolina del Norte

Explicación Simple

Si tu auto no pasa la prueba de emisiones, puedes obtener un permiso especial. Para eso, necesitas demostrar que hiciste reparaciones y que el auto sigue fallando en la misma prueba.

Es como si intentaras cocinar un platillo y no te saliera bien. Después de intentar arreglarlo varias veces, puedes pedir ayuda para que te den una oportunidad extra.

Ejemplo Práctico

María lleva su auto a la prueba de emisiones y falla porque el sistema de diagnóstico tiene un problema. Gastó $250 en reparaciones, pero cuando vuelve a la prueba, sigue fallando. Entonces, se dirige a la oficina local para solicitar una exención, mostrando todos los recibos de las reparaciones que hizo.

§ 20-183.5. When a vehicle that fails an emissions inspection may obtain a waiver from the inspection requirement. (a) Requirements. - The Division may issue a waiver for a vehicle, excluding a vehicle owned or being held for retail sale by a motor vehicle dealer, that meets all of the following requirements: (1) Fails an emissions inspection because it passes the visual inspection but fails the analysis of data provided by the on-board diagnostic (OBD) equipment. (2) Has documented repairs costing at least the waiver amount made to the vehicle to correct the cause of the failure. The waiver amount is two hundred dollars ($200.00). (3) Is reinspected and again fails the inspection because it passes the visual inspection but fails the analysis of data provided by the on-board diagnostic (OBD) equipment. (4) Meets any other waiver criteria required by 40 C.F.R. § 51.360, or as designated by the Division. (b) Procedure. - To obtain a waiver, a person must contact a local enforcement office of the Division. Before issuing a waiver, an employee of the Division must review the inspection receipts issued for the inspections of the vehicle, review the documents establishing what repairs were made to the vehicle and at what cost, review any statement denying warranty coverage of the repairs made, and do a visual inspection of the vehicle, if appropriate, to determine if the documented repairs were made.
