Emissions Inspection Basics
Common Reasons for Failing an Emissions Test
Common issues that can cause a vehicle to fail an emissions test include a malfunctioning oxygen sensor, issues with the catalytic converter, or evaporative emission control system defects. Our team at Hale's Diesel & Auto Repair can diagnose and repair these issues promptly.

We thoroughly inspect your vehicle's exhaust system to detect any leaks or issues that could affect emission levels.
How to Prepare for Your Emissions Inspection
To prepare for your emissions inspection, ensure your vehicle is well-maintained and that the check engine light is off. Driving the vehicle for about 30 minutes before the inspection can help warm up the engine to its normal operating temperature, which can improve test results.
Onboard Diagnostics (OBD) Analysis
An OBD test is performed to ensure that the onboard computer system of the vehicle is functioning correctly and detecting any emissions-related issues.

What Our Customers Are Saying
The best service, hands-down. Customer care was top notch, and they got my Yukon fixed up quickly. They were so much easier to work with than the dealership.
Well, where to begin. We all work in WTX for a reason, and we put some pretty heavy wear and tear on our trucks. Some trust the 5 minute lube guys, or the truck house. End of the day I don't. I was pointed in Hale's direction and will NEVER search for another crew. They gave me my twice look over and showed me what they saw, was wrong, was possibly going to go wrong, what level of seriousness. They worked with me, we talked pros and cons. They made some valid points even if i didn't want to hear them, because i know they are right! Got my truck back, clean, Quality Checked, bottle of water the works. So excited to get the truck back. The next day, alas, i had a small problem. The owner reached out to me, the service writer reached out, mind you this was before the sun even came out. They got me lined up with a tow from my house to the shop. Put me front of the line. They made sure i had transportation to and from everything i needed. Offered a truck to use if i needed. Had my truck up and running 24hrs later. The truck back to full life, shining and sparkly and roaring strong. I CANNOT say anything bad, they took initiative, they were calm and cool not pressuring me into anything. Small hiccup that could have changed the course of my feelings (probably not though, because things happen) At the end of the day in WTX where Service Quality and Customer service are severely lacking in every industry. Jason, Jesse and that team went above and beyond! They got me hooked and i won't accept any service less than what they produced in West Texas! Thanks again Hale's Team

Lubbock, TX
Owner personally went to pick me up in his personal truck so I wouldn't have to waste money on a taxi . They diagnose your vehicle and give you the option to approve whatever repairs you want to get done. When I picked up my truck after repair was done I had a cold Gatorade and water in the center council. They vacuumed truck and cleaned all the windows. Very impressed with their service. I'll definitely go back..
