I need some help. My car complies with the CA emissions standard, but it's not indicated on the MCO.
================
I'd be happy to help you. Do you have the MCO?
No, I don't.
What do I do if my vehicle is exempt from the California emissions standard?
If your car is exempt, either you or the auto dealer will need to complete form MV-74 to certify the exemption.
================
I'm thinking about buying another car. How do I know if the car I buy complies with the California emissions standard?
You can find this information on the MCO. There should also be an emissions label under the car's hood with this information.
================
My car is a 2002. Is it subject to the California emissions standards?
If your car has less than 7,500 miles on the odometer and is a model year of 1996 or newer with a gross weight rating of 6,000lbs or less, yes, it is subject to the California emissions standards.
What about a light duty truck that fits that criteria? Is it exempt?
No, the criteria I listed above includes both passenger vehicles and light duty trucks.
