It's a state mandated inspection. You can get the inspection done anywhere. It should be $25.50. Shops charging more should be reported.

I've never heard of LEOs doing random safety inspections on the highway. If they see you driving with a severely cracked windshield or busted tail light, you are definitely at risk of getting pulled over for it. Most of the tickets are fix it within 30 days, provide proof of repairs and pay a $15 dismissal fee.
There are inspection stations that will pass anything. Just gotta find them.

Not sure. Wouldn't surprise me though.

No. I got that one with the thermostat.
The metal tubing that connects the t-stat to the lower radiator hose has an o-ring that is showing a little wear. So easy to replace right now I might as well do it.

For my Passport, I had an O-ring from a metal coolant line to my t-stat housing. That thing was so corroded, and since Isuzu (Passport was a rebranded Rodeo) had gone away, I had a heck of a time finding an O-ring for it. Found a dude on Ebay and ordered a dozen..lol

I'll probably just look for one at the local auto parts store. But I will likely buy a kit with a good variety just so I have them in the future.

They also do roadblocks for drunks at times. Sometimes they do drug roadblocks on interstate and stop every car.This is quite a sight.Takes an army of law enforcement and numerous drug dogs. This has all be contested in courts but upheld. Last edited by Baronsmokes; 06-07-2019 at 12:09 PM. Reason: spell |
