How to Pass a Rideshare Vehicle Inspection the First Time

Common Reasons Cars Fail

Lights out or cracked lenses. Headlights, brake lights, turn signals, hazards, reverse lights.

Worn tires. Tread at or below wear bars, cords showing, or mismatched sizes.

Damaged or streaking wipers. Ineffective blades or empty washer fluid.

Cracked windshield or missing mirrors. Driver visibility and safety items matter.

Seat belts and horn inoperative. Every seating position must latch and retract.

Excessively dirty interior/exterior. A very dirty vehicle can be turned away.

Five-Minute Pre-Check Before You Arrive

Do a full light walk-around. Ask a friend to press the pedals; verify all bulbs.

Check tires. Inflate to door-jamb specs; confirm safe tread depth.

Wipers + washer. Replace blades if they streak; top off fluid.

Mirrors, seat belts, horn. Confirm operation for each seat and the horn.

Clean cabin and trunk. Remove clutter; wipe high-touch areas.

What to Bring

Driver’s license, registration, proof of insurance, payment method, clean vehicle.
