State Vehicle Inspections...
In the State of Maryland, all used vehicles must be safety inspected before they can be
registered by the Motor Vehicle Administration.  The vehicle must be inspected by a
licensed Maryland Inspection Station.  Graeves Auto & Appliance has been performing
vehicle inspections for over 20 years and has several ASE certified technicians who can
assist you in bringing your used vehicle into compliance without performing unnecessary
repairs or adjustments.
