How Many Times Should a 15-Year-Old Vehicle Be Inspected Annually in 2021?
1 Answers
According to the new regulations for annual vehicle inspections in 2021, vehicles that are 15 years old or older still need to undergo two inspections per year. Important Notes for Annual Inspection: During the annual inspection, the vehicle management office will check the vehicle's lighting. If the lights are found to be either too dim or too bright, the vehicle will be deemed unqualified and will not pass the inspection. If the lights are too dim, inspect the lighting circuits and bulbs for aging, and replace the relevant components if necessary. If xenon headlights have been installed, it is recommended to revert to the original headlights before the inspection to pass the test. Annual Inspection Procedure: First, after submitting the inspection application, the vehicle will undergo an online inspection. The vehicle will be driven into an automatic inspection area to sequentially check the exhaust emissions, speed, lighting, side slip, and chassis to ensure they meet the standards. All items must pass to proceed. Next is the appearance inspection, which verifies the vehicle's license plate, type, body color, engine number, VIN code, and frame number for accuracy. Then, the body appearance is inspected, including details such as the bumper, engine compartment, rearview mirrors, lower mirrors, window glass, paint, engine operation status, and the interior and wheels of passenger vehicles. Finally, the owner can obtain the inspection report and application form from the inspector. If all inspection items pass, the owner can proceed to pay the inspection fee and collect the vehicle license and certification label. If any items fail, the owner must repair the vehicle and participate in a re-inspection until it passes before proceeding with the visa formalities.
