39:8-4. a. If inspections as required by R.S. 39:8-1 disclose the necessity for adjustments, corrections or repairs, the director shall cause a rejection sticker to be issued.

b. The director may require the owner of a motor vehicle requiring an adjustment, correction or repair that is not emission-related to have that adjustment, correction or repair made and thereafter have the vehicle reinspected at an official inspection facility or at a licensed private inspection facility within the period designated by the director.

The director may cause a certificate of approval to be issued for a motor vehicle needing an adjustment, correction or repair that is not emission-related in order to conform to the requirements of chapter 3 and chapter 8 of this Title, but which, in the director's determination, is nevertheless safe. In such cases the director shall issue notice to the vehicle owner to have the adjustment, correction or repair made within a specified period of time, subject to the penalties of R.S.39:8-9.

c. The director shall require the owner of a motor vehicle requiring an adjustment, correction or repair that is emission-related to have that adjustment, correction or repair made and thereafter have the vehicle reinspected at an official inspection facility or at a private inspection facility, as determined by the director, within the period designated by the director.
