What changed for Bexar County drivers?
Beginning November 1, 2026, gasoline-powered vehicles that are 2–24 years old and registered in Bexar County, including San Antonio, require a passing emissions inspection for registration. The requirement does not mean every vehicle needs a new catalytic converter.
Hooks provides diagnosis and repair for emissions-related problems. Official emissions testing is performed at a DPS-certified emissions inspection station. If your vehicle fails, bring the report so we can address the identified problems.
Catalytic converter repair starts with diagnosis
A converter-related warning can involve the converter itself or another part of the emissions system. We inspect the vehicle to determine whether the work involves an exhaust repair, an oxygen sensor, an engine-running problem or catalytic converter replacement.
If the converter itself has failed internally, replacement is generally necessary. Repairing a related exhaust or sensor problem is different from restoring a damaged converter. We will explain what we find and review the appropriate repair or replacement with you.
