Body Repairs and Approval

If your vehicle needs a bit of cosmetic TLC – maybe a dent fix or a fresh coat of paint – you'll need a nod from the Traffic Department first. No jumping the gun here; the garage can't touch the body without the green light from the authorities.

Prompt Correction

Whether it's a minor hiccup or a major glitch, swift correction is the name of the game. Ensure every fault mentioned in that inspection report gets the attention it deserves. Once you've ironed out the kinks, your vehicle is ready for round two – the re-inspection.

Scheduling Re-inspection

Time to set the stage for a comeback. Schedule that re-inspection at the Fahes station, where they'll give your vehicle another thorough once-over. The goal? A shiny new report with that glorious "PASS" status.

Understanding Re-inspection Costs

Good news – the first re-inspection is usually on the house. But if luck doesn't swing your way and your vehicle needs another shot, be prepared for a paid inspection. It typically follows a pattern of one paid and one free within 30 days of the main inspection.

Inspection Report Validity

Keep your eyes on the clock. That inspection report is only valid for 30 days. Ensure you wrap up the registration renewal within this timeframe, aligning it with the pass report date and registration validity.

Acting Within the 30-Day Window

Here's the critical part – if your vehicle doesn't make the cut within 30 days of the first inspection, it's back to square one. Forget the previous reports and repairs; a fresh main inspection is on the horizon, scrutinizing every nook and cranny.

Common Reasons for Failure

Understanding the enemy is half the battle. Common reasons for Fahes inspection failure include but not limited to,

Paint faded (often due to parking under the sun)
Tyre erosion
Break lights / Indicator lights not working.
Viper erosion
Sunfilm tint without permission or more than allowed.
Excessive dents
Brake Failure
Exhaust Systems
Oil Leaks
Excessive damage to paint, bodywork, or bumpers can fail legal inspection.
