18 Mar Pennsylvania State Inspection: Why Use a Shop That Cares?
If you’ve ever had a Pennsylvania State Inspection, you know the process can feel a little… unpredictable. Go to four different shops, and you might get four different answers about what your car needs to pass. And if you’re in Philly, well, you might not even need to bring your car at all—just your wallet.
That’s because Pennsylvania does a terrible job regulating its inspectors. Some places barely look at your car, while others will pass just about anything. But here’s the thing: a state inspection isn’t just about slapping a sticker on your windshield—it’s about making sure your car is actually safe to drive.
We Actually Check Your Car (Crazy, Right?)
At D’Avico’s Auto Repair, we take the Pennsylvania State Inspection seriously. We don’t cut corners, sell stickers, or let unsafe cars back on the road. Our inspection and emissions costs $108.88, and you pay that whether you pass or fail. Why? Because you’re paying for a real inspection, not a rubber stamp.
When you bring your car to us, we perform a thorough check of critical safety components, including:
-
- Brakes – Because stopping is kind of important.
- Tires – Bald tires + rain = a free ticket to hydroplane city.
- Steering & Suspension – Nobody likes a wobbly ride.
- Exterior Lights – See and be seen. (Yes, that includes your turn signals. Use them!)
If You Fail, We’ve Got Your Back
If your car doesn’t pass, don’t worry—we’ll walk you through exactly what needs to be fixed. You’ll get a detailed Vehicle Inspection Report and a clear estimate for any necessary repairs. No scare tactics, no unnecessary upsells—just the information you need to make the right decision for your car.
Why D’Avico’s? Because We Actually Care.
