i have a 2002 trailblazer LT ''EXT''a day before my appointment to get my new york state inspection, my service engine soon light came on, truck has 40,000 miles on it, ( out of warrentty), chevy checked said it was the gas cap seal leaking, they replaced it, and told me to put 200miles on the truck, then redo the inspection, so i did, and the light can back on,another code check revealed the same thing,so they put another tester on it, said it was the gas filler pipe leaking, and replaced that, retested, same code, now they found that the gas tank had a hairline crack in it,but the dealer told me that chevy is going to eat the cost of the gas tank,because even though the truck is out of warrentty, there's noway a gas tank should have a crack in it, but they had to have the gas tank fedexed, so i am with my truck for a few days.
i am sure about other states, but in N.Y., if you have a check engine light on, you car fails the emissions test of inspection,you have to have it fixed and then do a drive period[about 200miles],to make sure that, problem was fixed,any other states have this too?
