What happens if a vehicle fails its inspection?

The owner receives a warning
The owner must repair the vehicle and have it re-inspected
The vehicle is impounded immediately
No further action is needed

The correct answer is: The owner must repair the vehicle and have it re-inspected

When a vehicle fails its inspection, it is necessary for the owner to repair the vehicle to address the issues that led to the failure. This step is crucial to ensure that the vehicle meets safety and emissions standards mandated by state regulations. After the necessary repairs are completed, the owner must have the vehicle re-inspected to verify that it now complies with these standards. This process is designed to promote road safety and environmental protection, as it helps to ensure that all vehicles on the road are functioning properly and are not polluting more than allowed. In Texas, failure to address these issues could lead to penalties or even restrictions on the vehicle's registration, further emphasizing the importance of completing repairs and obtaining a successful re-inspection.
