NCT Failure

The primary aim of the NCT is to improve road safety and enhance environmental protection by reducing harmful vehicles emissions in Ireland. The NCT applies to all cars over 4 years old and is a statutory requirement to pass every 2 years. Once a vehicle gets to 10 years old the law has changed so that each vehicle must pass the NCT test each year. It is now a serious offence to drive a car without a “valid” NCT certificate and as well as a fine it also carries 3 penalty points which could have an effect on your insurance premium as insurance surcharges usually apply once a driver gets to 5 points.

So with a high fail rate, (approximately half of the vehicles pass on the first test – Source NCTS.ie) it is vital that drivers give themselves every chance to pass the test first time and save themselves time and money.

McCann Motors, Dundalk’s leading car servicing has a NCT check that we can carry out on your vehicle to prevent NCT Failure and help identify items that we feel will be raised by the NCT centre when your car is presented for the test. However, we cannot guarantee that you will pass the NCT test at any stage (even after we have checked the car) as the equipment used by ourselves and the test centres can vary, but we can give you a very good indication as to our findings and the solution for same.
