This actually happens more than you think. Sometimes you run low last year and don't remember till the next year and have to wait for an order. But just to be clear you have a 3 month window where you can give any of those 3 months. It's kind of frowned upon to jump months for no reason. However it's not illegal and is perfectly normal in that situation.

3 months window includes the current month. We can do any inspection inside thay window. So say it's January I can do January February and March in that time frame. I can't do an April tho. That illegal to jump that far out. Hope this helps. Also your stickers aren't tied to anything. So say you forgot next year and don't notice till March. We'll then you get a 3 it's no big deal.

As a mechanic I say good for you! I for one am sick and tired of getting a bad name because some scumbags decide to take advantage of people. I'm really tired of it. I tell people this all the time, if you don't trust your mechanic go find a new one! Vehicles are complicated as are some of the grey areas of pa inspection law. You don't want someone you don't trust working on your vehicles! Yet most people will just go back to whomever is cheapest. It's a pet peeve of mine after watching some of this shit first hand. Especially seeing cars that clearly should not under and circumstance have had a sticker put on them roll into the shop for something minor. If someone's car falls apart on the road and injures someone I care about there will be hell to pay! Integrity people! Anyway, fuck that shop. Get a written statement from the dealership you went to that the inspection mechanic that did your inspection didn't replace any parts and bring your receipt from the dealership.
