Puspakom has announced that it will provide Voluntary Vehicle Inspection (VVI) services for private vehicles from today, April 10, until April 23, 2023, in conjunction with the upcoming Hari Raya Aidilfitri celebrations.

Vehicle owners can walk-in to any Puspakom outlet nationwide from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., with the exception of the Shah Alam, Taman Bukit Maluri, and Pasir Gudang branches, to receive the Voluntary Vehicle Inspection service for their vehicles.

Puspakom will hold a simple contest in conjunction with the deployment of mobile inspection units for the free-of-charge VVIs at selected locations, including Wisma DRB-Hicom and MMU Cyberjaya (for staff only) on April 11, Setia Alam Impian on April 12, and Lotus' Ara Damansara on April 19. These mobile inspection unit locations will be open from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.

The VVIs will focus of safety-related aspects of a vehicle such as brakes, tyres, side-slip testing, suspension, emissions, lights, undercarriage and bodyshell and window tints, among others, said Puspakom.

The free-of-charge inspection campaign in conjunction with the Hari Raya Aidilfitri season is aimed at helping vehicle owners know the condition of their vehicles through inspections with computerised equipment at Puspakom, which can then inform owners of the required maintenance, said Puspakom CEO Mohammed Shukor Ismail.

The campaign is also one of Puspakom’s efforts in raising awareness among the public for the importance of vehicle safety, especially during the festive season, Shukor added.
