Pennsylvania requires annual vehicle safety inspections to ensure that vehicles are maintained for safe operation. Safety Inspections can prevent vehicle failure on the highways and crashes that may result in injuries or death. Vehicle safety inspections are performed at official PennDOT Inspection Stations (usually a repair garage or a service station with a repair shop). If the vehicle passes the safety inspection the vehicle is issued an inspection sticker which is displayed in the lower left corner of the windshield. The sticker is valid for 12 months and indicates in which month the current inspection will expire. If the vehicle does not pass the inspection you will be provided with a list of the needed repairs. Our fee for State Inspection is $27.56 which includes the inspection, sticker (if the vehicle passes) and sales tax. This fee does not include repairs, if necessary, to correct any vehicle defects.
