Crawley MOT offers free retests on vehicles which failed their MOT at our premises and where the repair work is carried out by us
MOT re-testing procedures tend to be extremely perplexing and mundane. We want to set the landscape to help you as to when you can actually and will not obtain a FREE re-test.
Firstly, the initial rule is usually that after your car has failed to get through its MOT test, the compulsory time for the completion of any repair and any pursuing re-test is only 10 trading days following on from the initial day of test. This applies provided that the vehicle or light van has been remedied and then registered to obtain a re-test before the end of 10 trading days. If all of the aforementioned has been carried out, subsequently the computerised MOT programme that all MOT test stations work with should certainly, at that point, allow us to register your vehicle or light van and perform the re-test.
The subsequent rule is within the MOT re-examination it is frequently the case that a couple of components could be tested again almost immediately whereas conversely other points ask for more focused assessment.
For instance;
- To illustrate your family car falls short on 1 tyre; then a replaced tyre is to determine and a "fast track" MOT test can be performed, consuming only a matter of minutes for the MOT tester to complete and as a result will not attract a re-test charge.
- Or a different example of this: What if your family car failed the MOT test on headlamp aims, emissions, and braking systems; in this situation the family car will have to be enrolled with your neighbourhood Crawley VOSA MOT garage to obtain a part re-test and driven directly into MOT test bay, and then an emissions analysis will have to be performed, a light rigorous overall check out executed including a full-blown braking system analysis carried out. This work typically takes added hours of the MOT testers time, and subsequently this will usually attract a re-test expense.
Crawley MOT only offers free MOT retests for any vehicle which failed its MOT providing the work is carried out by us.
If you decide to take your vehicle away to be repaired elsewhere, Crawley MOT will charge you a partial test fee which is half of the full price of an MOT (half of £54.85).
NOTABLY - if you find your vehicle or light van failed to pass its MOT test with us here at Crawley VOSA MOT station and is subsequently fixed by us, then in that case, we are able to almost always execute ones retest FREE (i.e. 100% free), this really is our thanks to you personally for making a choice to make full use of our Crawley VOSA MOT testing garage workshops.
