According to the North Carolina DMV, any vehicle driving on the road in the state must pass checks regarding brakes, steering, windows, tires, headlights, signals, and emissions. At Silance Tire & Service Center, we will do what it takes to not only help your vehicle pass inspection, but make sure your vehicle is in great condition and is safe to take out on the road.

There are some things to check before your next state inspection as well. Your car needs to be in safe working order to pass the NC state inspection. If you have worn tire tread, you will need to make sure the tread is at least 2/32" thick before inspection. If not, the only way to address tire tread would be to replace the tires. Faulty turn signals and headlights are other problems that will fail a state inspection. Replacing those bulbs will ensure your car is fit for the roads. 

Brake maintenance is another issue that can cause a failed inspection. Your brake pads and rotors have to be in good standing to pass the North Carolina State Inspection. Having your brakes serviced when they start to become less effective is important for safety and can help to ensure you pass your inspection. Generally, some people do not pass inspection due to a faulty parking brake. Most of the time your parking brake will just need a bit of adjusting in order to operate correctly and to pass inspection. If you are apprehensive about the state of your brake system or have failed inspection due to them, rely on Silance Tire & Service Center for brake service to ensure you're safe on the road and you can pass your state inspection!
