Safety & Emmission Test
« on: March 10, 2009, 12:56:53 pm »
Hi Everyone

My 2005 Corolla's lease is coming to maturity in this month and we are planning to buy it.  Our dealer told us that we need to get safety and emmission test done. Is that right?  I thought Corolla has some extended period for the emission test than the other cars.  Also, I have a big crack on my windshield too and if I need safety done then I would need to change the windshield.

Can someone share their experience.

Thanks

Every car that is sold needs a safety & emission test

Yes, you have to change the windshield
