Car Inspection FAQ

We often get a lot of questions about scheduling a car inspection at MINI of Wesley Chapel. We’re addressing our frequently asked questions to help you ensure your vehicle is safe.

Do I Need to Have my Car Regularly Inspected?

The state of Florida no longer requires vehicle safety inspections. Vehicles used to have to be regularly tested for smog and emissions. In lieu of safety inspections, Florida is focusing on promoting the use of green vehicles through a variety of incentives.

What if I Bought My Vehicle Somewhere Else?

There are two exceptions to the rule when it comes to not needing to have your vehicle inspected. In these cases, it is required to have your vehicle inspected for safety:

• If you purchase a new vehicle out-of-state
