Question : Is it possible to dispute or appeal a failed NJ motor vehicle inspection?
I failed due to a tiny black defect in my windshield. I don’t believe this has any effect whatsoever on the structural integrity of the glass. Can I dispute this or demand proof of the criteria for failure?
structural inspection

I have been inspecting vehicles for over 30 years and to pass a safety inspection, vehicles are expected to be maintained according to the original manufacturer’s specifications, including but not limited to: brakes, suspension, steering, wheel alignment, headlights, taillights, tires, horn, windshield wipers, window and hood operation, glazing, turn signals, mirrors, etc.

When it comes to the windshield vehicles can pass with what you have on it as long as it does not block the (inspectors) view and if not then yes you should appeal this at once………….
