Inspection process and requirements.

Below, you'll find a guide to inspections that covers all stages of the process, including what to do if your truck fails the inspection.


Registration renewal - no inspection required	Where Isuzu Financial Services is responsible for registration and CTP under the GoLease, Isuzu Financial Services will manage the renewal process. You must still respond to any information or action requested by Isuzu Financial Services before the due date. Once renewed, Isuzu Financial Services should provide confirmation of the new registration expiry date.
Inspection required before renewal	Some states require a mandatory inspection before registration can be renewed. This does not apply in every state or in every circumstance, and concessions/accreditation may affect the requirement. Book as early as practical once notified. Heavy vehicle inspection capacity can be limited, and suitable appointments may not be available at short notice. The inspection must be completed within the permitted pre-renewal period. Current draft guidance is no more than 90 days before expiry, with 30-60 days before expiry preferred to allow time for rectification if required. Do not assume all inspection providers can perform the required inspection type. It is your responsibility to verify the correct authority and inspection type before booking.
Booking a heavy vehicle inspection	Confirm exactly which inspection is required and who is authorised to complete it. Choose an authorised inspection location and book early. Have the CRN and business name as shown on the renewal advice, vehicle registration details and your preferred location/time ready. Confirm any booking fee/payment requirements.
Preparing and presenting the truck for inspection
After the inspection - passed	Provide the inspection certificate to Isuzu Financial Services, or provide the certificate details where a separate certificate is not issued. Isuzu Financial Services can then complete the registration renewal process where it is responsible under the GoLease. You should receive confirmation from Isuzu Financial Services when renewal is complete.
If the truck fails inspection	You are is responsible for rectifying the identified defects or failed items. Repairs and any reinspection must be completed within the timeframe required by the relevant authority. A failed inspection can affect the ability to renew registration on time, so rectification should be treated as a priority. Provide the successful reinspection outcome to Isuzu Financial Services so renewal can proceed.
