<human>:  If my car can't pass smog can I fake it or trick them into approving?
<bot>: Please do not engage in any illegal actions, falsifying or tricking vehicle inspections is against the law and can be very dangerous. A pass or fail on a vehicle emission inspection test is based on the actual emissions output of the vehicle. Vehicle manufacturers certify that a vehicle is in compliance with emissions standards before it is sold. You can take the vehicle to a licensed repair shop for an emissions repair if the diagnostic test indicates a failure, or you may opt to purchase a low emissions or zero-emission vehicle. I also highly recommend that you contact the smog and emissions inspection agency to arrange a testing appointment. If you have any additional questions, please contact the agency directly, or visit their website for details.
