There is tons more info here http://www.dmv.state.pa.us/inspectio..._faq.shtml#Q13
You can also find a list of quality assurance people to file a complaint against an inspection station.
Edit: I posted in the regional section for PA meet.

The free re inspection is only for emissions inspection and you have to show receiptfor repairs or for the parts
Question for you if you have your PA inspection license;
I was told by someone that if your vehicle fails inspection and you bring it back within a week they have to re-inspect it for free. The guy i took my wifes car to charged me a second time and whenI asked him abot the free re-inspect, he said there was no such law. Whats the deal??
I checked the PA state inspection laws on the PA DMV website, but could only find reasons for failure.

Well, Ken took the truck to another mechanic today and gee, The truck passed inspection with out needing a thing. Guess that Dealer was just trying to bring in a few $$ like other replies mentioned. Thanks all for your input, it helped put Ken in a better mood to see all of your posts supporting him.

I know he is planning on beefing up the front suspension by replacing the stuts/springs and tierods as they are OEM and he has heard that the OEM's are junk. With about 47,000 miles the warrenty is no longer in affect. We have read several online reports of the tierods going out at about 30,000 miles. That's why he wants to replace them this spring/summer with aftermarkets, when he has the time and $$, rather then when they finally fail at a bad time.
Thanks again, I'm sure we will be back and keep up with the forums.
