Failed Emissions Test

Failed Emissions Test -

Currently, only 1999 and older vehicles require a tailpipe emissions test for smog check in Vista CA and Oceanside.

A tailpipe failure needs a professional diagnostic by a licensed smog repair technician. Results from a failed smog check report provide the technician with a good start on what systems and parts to visually inspect and functionally test. Failure to address the origin of the tailpipe problem can cause further damage and more costly repairs.
