Professional eSafety Inspections
Nova Auto Innovations provides rego checks in Charlestown for drivers who need a compliant eSafety inspection before renewing registration. Inspections are completed at our workshop by fully qualified, RMS-authorised inspectors who know exactly what to look for.
During the check, key safety components such as brakes, steering, suspension, tyres, lights and visibility are assessed to ensure the vehicle meets NSW roadworthiness standards. If an issue arises, it’s explained clearly so there are no surprises. This practical approach helps drivers understand what’s required before registration can proceed.

A Clear Path to Registration Approval
Rego checks aren’t about finding faults for the sake of it – they’re about confirming a vehicle is safe to be on the road. Our inspectors follow a structured assessment process that focuses on real-world safety rather than unnecessary complexity. Attention goes to areas that commonly affect compliance, including worn braking components, steering play and tyre condition.
Because inspections are completed in-house, the process stays efficient and well-coordinated from start to finish. Clear communication plays a big role, with results explained in plain language so drivers know where they stand. We support everyday motorists who want clarity, accuracy and confidence when organising registration.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are tyres checked during a rego inspection?
Yes, tyres are inspected during a rego check to ensure they meet minimum safety standards. Inspectors assess tread depth, condition and visible damage such as cracks or bulges. Tyres that are excessively worn or damaged will cause the vehicle to fail. Maintaining tyres in good condition improves road safety and reduces the risk of failing the inspection. Regular tyre checks can help avoid last-minute issues before registration renewal.
Do new cars need rego checks?
New vehicles are usually exempt from rego checks for a set period, often several years, depending on state regulations. After this exemption period ends, rego checks become mandatory before registration renewal. Even during the exemption period, regular servicing is still recommended to maintain safety and performance. Checking the registration requirements based on vehicle age helps prevent unexpected inspection requirements when the exemption period ends.
What happens if a vehicle fails a rego check?
If a vehicle fails a rego check, the inspection report will outline the reasons for failure and identify the items that require attention. The vehicle must be repaired and rechecked before registration can be renewed. The failed inspection result remains on record until a successful reinspection is completed. Addressing the listed faults promptly helps prevent registration lapses and avoids potential penalties associated with driving an unregistered or unsafe vehicle.
