Consumer Assistance Program Fallbrook
Mission Automotive & Smog Check
The Bureau of Automotive Repair’s (BAR) Consumer Assistance Program (CAP) offers eligible consumers repair assistance and vehicle retirement options to help improve California’s air quality.
Participation is based on meeting eligibility requirements and the availability of funds each fiscal year (July 1 – June 30).
Repair Assistance
Eligible consumers may receive up to $1,200 in emissions-related repairs at a STAR test-and-repair station if their vehicle fails its biennial Smog Check inspection.
Vehicle Retirement
Eligible consumers may receive either $1,500 or $1,000 to retire their operational vehicle at a BAR-contracted dismantler site.
NOTICE
Do not have emissions-related repairs performed on your vehicle or retire your vehicle until your application is approved. BAR will not reimburse consumers.
