What are the new regulations for vehicle annual inspections in 2021?
1 Answers
2021 adjustments to vehicle annual inspection items are divided into two parts: private cars and freight vehicles, with specifics as follows: Private car section: Private cars now include a "safety defect recall" step in the online inspection process. If a vehicle has safety issues and is subject to a manufacturer recall, the inspector will notify the owner about the recall status. The new regulations clarify and relax the exterior inspection standards, allowing modifications to the grille, pedals, roof rack, bumper, and wheel hubs during the visual inspection. Freight vehicle section: Freight vehicles implement a "three additions, six reductions" policy, removing six original inspection items and adding three new ones. The newly added inspection items are tire tread depth, wheel lifting device, and wheelbase. The six removed items are noise, speedometer, suspension efficiency, fuel economy, power performance, and headlight offset.
