Pink Slips and e-Safety Checks for Sydney Drivers
23 COSGROVE RD, STRATHFIELD SOUTH NSW 2136
Strathfield Mechanics is a licensed inspection station for pink slips and e-Safety check reports for Sydney drivers.
Roads and Maritime Services (RMS) requires vehicles more than 5 years old to complete an e-safety check to obtain a pink slip. You will need a pink slip to renew your CTP green slip from your insurance company and your car registration. An e-Safety report will be sent electronically to RMS on your behalf.
And while you're here, it's also a great time to ask us about a logbook service – keeping your service history up to date alongside your rego is the easiest way to protect your car's value and manufacturer's warranty.
Our fully qualified mechanics ensure the safety of your car by inspecting and monitoring your car's:
- Tyres
- Brakes
- Belts, hoses and engine components
- Engine coolant
- Windscreen wipers
- Engine oil
- Battery
- Lights and blinkers
All vehicles travelling on public roads require a safety inspection and a pink slip. This includes trailers, caravans, and all towed auxiliary vehicles.
The RMS no longer issues registration stickers for light vehicles. All e-safety checks are sent through to Roads and Maritime Services electronically upon completion.
Please bring your official car registration form with you, as we need certain engine information.
Contact us today on (02) 8074 5449 to organise your pink slip or any other roadworthy certificate.
What Happens If My Car Fails a Pink Slip Safety Inspection?
If your car is found not to be roadworthy after its initial inspection, you will be issued a white slip failure notice. This allows you, as the vehicle's owner, to have the necessary repairs carried out and a re-inspection done within 14 days – and if you return the vehicle to us, there's no additional charge for the re-inspection.
The most common reasons vehicles fail a pink slip in NSW are worn brakes, tyre tread below the legal limit, suspension issues, and faulty lights or auto electrical components. The good news is we can handle all of those mechanical repairs right here on-site – no need to take your car anywhere else.
A new e-safety inspection will be required and charged if the required repairs are not completed within 14 days.
Trailers that weigh less than 251 kg and caravans with a tare weight less than 411 kg do not need an e-safety check.
