車検 (Shaken) Car Inspection
車検 (Shaken) inspection ensures vehicle safety and environmental compliance in Japan.
Shaken Maintenance
車検 (Shaken) is not just a routine inspection; it’s a comprehensive examination of a vehicle’s safety, emissions, and overall roadworthiness. Conducted every few years, typically after the first three years of registration and then every two years thereafter, the shaken inspection covers a wide range of components including brakes, steering, suspension, lights, emissions, safety equipment, and structural integrity.
Vehicle Inspection
This meticulous process ensures that vehicles on the road meet strict safety and environmental standards. Passing the shaken inspection results in the issuance of a new certificate, allowing the vehicle to remain legally registered and on the road for the next period.
Remedial Retesting Protoco
However, failing the inspection requires the owner to address any identified issues and have the vehicle retested before it can be deemed roadworthy again. This system plays a crucial role in maintaining road safety and environmental protection standards in Japan
