Let's say a person fails and gets a conditional pass, good for - what is it........3 months?

Fine - what if 3 months is all that person wanted to drive anyhow?

The year goes by and the next year is upon them - and they must again go through aircare - is last years fail still looming over their head?
Or can they simply go through again - knowingly going to fail - and drive again for the wanted 3 months?

 

excellent question!

just remember, also, aircare may be gone sooner than later... if the reports are true....

either way, i passed aircare today (aircare = waste of $47)

 

as far as i know you can only use that conditional pass once.

 

Then you have to prove that an attempt to correct the problem was given?

Like a set amount of money?

 

yeah but even if you want to just insure for 3 months i think if you fail once your allowed to insure for three months

 

yes, i believe i asked this question once, and you only get one chance once you fail.

I've been through this before. You get a 3 month, and then need to get a conditional or full pass to continue insuring the car (or to re-insure the car again). Once you have that you can get another 3 months the next time you fail.

air care is a joke, i have a 76 sierra as my beater besides my work van and z and its a rusted piece of ****...passes air care with no cats and a loose rocker.....although it did have a 94 oct and methyl hydrate in the tank...

 

My 1986 VW Diesel Golf daily driver passes better than either of my newer vehicles.

 

How is that possible? Diesel pollute worse than gasoline. Besides, how bad could the Blazer be?

 

It's not bad at all.
It's just that the Golf gets lower numbers than it does.

I would guess it's because they haven't properly figured out how to test diesels.

 

aircare is a joke... my father once took in his late 90's accord, anyways, they ran it once... had a problem, got no figures... ran it again, same problem... well, finally they just tell him to go, he gets his pass with numbers that were totally unlike any of the readings he had in previous or later years... basically, they made the numbers up because they couldn't get readings (for some reason, not saying his car doesn't pollute... but they f-ed up)
