Business does not follow VA State laws for reinspections
I want to warn anyone considering VA Tire & Auto in Dulles. They violated Virginia’s reinspection law, which states:
"Reinspection of a rejected vehicle by the same station during the 15-day validity of the rejection sticker need include only a check of the items previously found defective, unless there is an obvious equipment defect that would warrant further rejection of the vehicle. Such reinspection will not constitute a complete inspection and a $1.00 fee may be charged. Furthermore, if a vehicle returns for reinspection within the 15-day period, the rejecting station will reinspect the vehicle without delay or at the reasonable conclusion of the current inspection being performed."
I had to take legal action, and the court ruled in my favor, confirming the violation. Instead of "reinspecting the vehicle without delay or at a reasonable conclusion of the current inspection", they made me wait 3.5-4 hours for a 10 minute reinspection of an engine mount bracket.
This experience was frustrating and completely avoidable. Be cautious before trusting this location with your vehicle.
