2013 Emission Inspection Information
Test Early: Georgia's Clean Air Force (GCAF) recommends having your vehicle inspected four to six weeks prior to the registration renewal date every year (the vehicle owner's birthday). Ongoing Maintenance: Follow the recommended maintenance and tune-up schedule for your vehicle. New Vehicle Exemptions: The three most recent model years are exempt each year. In 2013, all 2011 and newer model years vehicles are exempt from emission testing. Which Vehicles need to be Tested: In 2013, all 1989 - 2010 model year gasoline powered cars and light-duty trucks (8,500 pounds gross vehicle weight rating or less) registered in Cherokee, Clayton, Cobb, Coweta, DeKalb, Douglas, Fayette, Forsyth, Fulton, Gwinnett, Henry, Paulding or Rockdale County.
Newly acquired vehicles, model years 1989-2010, in the 13 counties must have proof of passing inspection within the last 12 months and must be registered within 30 days (seven days if purchased from a non-registered dealer).
According to Georgia law, the seller must ensure the vehicle has a valid passing emission inspection at the time of sale if the vehicle will be registered in one of the 13 counties. The cost of an emission inspection is between $10 and $25. Stations must post the testing fee on their official GCAF (Georgia's Clean Air Force) sign. Testing Tips for 1996-2010 model vehicles: If your vehicle's battery was recently replaced or disconnected, or the computer reset, drive the vehicle for one to two weeks under normal conditions, including some highway driving, prior to having an on-board diagnostic (OBD) inspection or retest. If your vehicle's Check Engine light is on, it will not pass. The cause may be as minor as a loose fuel cap or as major as an emission control system problem. Seek repairs prior to having an emissions test. What if my vehicle fails: Have your vehicle repaired to meet the required emission standards. Your emission inspector will give you the Georgia Vehicle Emission Inspection Report (VIR), a blank Emission Repair Form, and a GCAF Q&A brochure, which details retest procedures. Possible exceptions: Repair Waiver: Available if emission-related repairs happen to meet or exceed the Repair Waiver limit amount of $819.00 for 2013. Other qualifications based on vehicle model year may apply.
Federal law requires the catalytic converter and on-board computer for 1995 and newer vehicles to be warranted by the manufacturer for eight years or 80,000 miles.
You can obtain a free retest at the original station within 30 days of the initial inspection.
800-449-2471 for more information.
Remember: Alan Cox Automotive is not an Emission Inspection station. However, we can make any necessary repairs in order for your vehicle to pass emissions. |

Georgia Power Enables Electric Vehicle Charging at Work Locations
Georgia Power is now offering workplace charging to its employees throughout the state. The program is part of ECOtality's Electric Vehicle (EV) project - a public-private partnership with the Department of Energy that evaluates the effectiveness of EV charger infrastructure. Georgia Power is the first company in the state to participate in the program.
Georgia Power hopes to maximize employees' electric vehicle range and encourage adoption of proven transportation technologies among workers and customers. Some employees may be able to double their daily driving range, and for the first time, long distance commuters can consider electric vehicles as an option. |
