inspection hook up?

[quote=“Bigairskier1580,post:6,topic:31456"”]

I thought that under NYS inspection laws you cannot be forced into having a car repaired at the shop that deemed the car unsafe and are given the opportunity to have the car repaired elsewhere?

Am I just imagining reading that?

Edit ------------------

“You are not required to have your vehicle repaired or re-inspected at the station that performed the initial inspectionl Your vehicle may be taken to any registered repair shop, or you may make the required repairs yourself. Your vehicle must then pass a new inspection, at an inspection station of your choice, before an inspection sticker will be issued.”

Doesn’t say anything about them not being able to release the car to them. Tell them to show you the law that says you can’t have the car back.
