During a New York State Inspection, checking the suspension and steering system is a required procedure. New York State law requires licensed inspection stations to examine steering and suspension components for excessive play, damage, or unsafe wear. At FIX SERVICE, we perform this inspection in accordance with New York DMV regulations. The vehicle is lifted on a hoist and the technician checks tie rods, steering components, ball joints, and suspension parts for looseness or wear. If unsafe play or damage is found, the vehicle cannot receive an official inspection sticker. This inspection ensures the vehicle is safe to operate on New York roads.
