Independent shops in New York usually bill $110 to $165 an hour for labor. The national range is $95 to $140. Dealers charge more. Most quotes are the book time for the job times that rate, plus parts, so ask the shop how many hours it is billing you for.

Vehicles need a safety inspection every 12 months and when ownership changes. Most inspections also include an emissions check of the onboard computer (OBD). Vehicles less than two model years old or more than 25 model years old are exempt from the emissions part.
