What does a rejection notice indicate?

A rejection notice signifies that the vehicle has failed to meet one or more inspection requirements mandated by the state. This notice is an official communication indicating that specific issues or deficiencies have been identified during the inspection process. The vehicle must be repaired or brought into compliance with regulations before it can receive approval for use on public roads.

This serves as an important indicator for vehicle owners, alerting them to necessary corrections to ensure safety and compliance with state laws. Understanding this helps vehicle owners recognize the seriousness of compliance and the potential consequences of continued operation without resolving noted issues. Other options might suggest compliance or exemptions, but a rejection notice specifically points to failures necessitating action by the owner.
