Hodge Motors provides certified Warrant of Fitness (WOF) inspections at our workshop in New Plymouth, NZ, for vehicle owners across the Taranaki, NZ, region. A current WOF is legally required in New Zealand for most vehicles, but more importantly, it ensures that your vehicle remains safe and roadworthy.
What’s Checked in a WOF?
A WOF inspection involves a detailed review of critical safety components to Waka Kotahi NZTA standards. Our technicians check your brakes, tyres, suspension, lights, seatbelts, steering, windscreen, wipers, and more. We also assess structural integrity and look for signs of corrosion or damage that could impact safety. If any issues are found, we’ll explain them clearly and offer suitable repair options to get your vehicle compliant.
How Often Do You Need a WOF?
For cars registered less than three years ago, a WOF is generally valid for 12 months. Older vehicles, especially those over 14 years old, require a WOF every 6 months. Booking an inspection well before the due date is always a good idea, especially if your vehicle might need repairs.
At Hodge Motors, we ensure the WOF process is straightforward and transparent. Whether you’re renewing your WOF or coming in for your first check, we ensure nothing is missed. Keep your vehicle safe and legal and book your WOF with our team today.
