Keeping Aircare reports helped me immensely when selling a vehicle privately.

I think thats the only reason BCGEU is fighting for this. I think the majority of these 110 jobs are very little skills involved. Dead end jobs anyways. They could go to Mcdonald's and fit right in. Flippin a burger, flippin a gas cap, or go pick apples in an orchard.
I'm happy to see aircare is dead. At our dealer we might see 1 aircare every month or 2. Had my aircare ticket from 96 until last year. Chose not to renew it, rarely used it in the last couple years

I dont think that works if your aircare is expired, it works if your aircare is still valid before your insurance expires.

It doesn't work. ICBC closed this loophole many years ago.

I need to renew in October. Brought my car in for AC today and it failed due to what looks like failed O2 sensors (checked the codes). If I get 3 months insurance that will get till mid January 2015. Wondering if they will let me renew then without aircare (if I don't get my car fixed)?

How much is aircare again? For temporary renewal for 3 months without aircare, I remember there's some extra fees you have to pay? Forgot how much.

If I recall correctly, it was $75 for 3 months. Please confirm if you find out.

Hmm looks like it's way cheaper to just get air cared instead of getting a temp insurance to bypass it.

This is a great thing for those of us with cars that are problematic getting through AC but have many people thought what they will put in its place?

I don't see the government letting AirCare slip away without finding another way to take our money.
Would not be surprised if they bring back Vehicle Inspections in place of it in the near future. This, for many, will be far worse than AirCare ever could be. Lowered, to large of an exhaust, to much camber, wrong lights etc etc.
Just pray they don't go the way of places like Australia.

i know there's probably gonna be shitty alternatives but they haven't been announced yet.

i'm just really happy cus my dd's ac expired in august but I have it insured until January 2015.

I'm pretty sure it was gonna fail cus it barely passed the last one, can't remember what the number was but it was razor thin and i'm pretty sure it was because of the cat.

Either way thank fucking god. I hate aircare with a passion. Lost my first car because it wouldn't pass and I just didn't wanna throw more money into it.
It's a piece of shit cash grab program.

My fear is they will have inspections come in place of it.

This will be a massive problem. Unlike with AirCare, if your car was to low for the rollers they will simply do an idle test. With a Vehicle Inspection they will make you return the car to factory ride height....fingers crossed they will not bring this back and will simply target problem vehicles rather than go for everyone.

Basically. However you can and probably would get ticked for that and be forced to fix it by being issued a VI for the problem.

Rumor's been that they're going to be inspecting commercial vehicles and equipment.
