AutoZone does not currently offer free OBDII scans, but there are a few other ways to get your vehicle’s diagnostic information for free. If your car is 1996 or newer, you can take advantage of the government’s emissions testing program.
Most states require emissions testing for vehicles every one to two years, and as part of the test your car’s OBDII system will be checked for any codes that could indicate a problem. If your car fails the emissions test, you may be able to get a free OBDII scan at a repair facility that can help you diagnose and fix the problem.
There are also a few websites that offer free OBDII scans, but these are usually limited in scope and don’t provide as much information as a paid scan from a professional repair facility. If you’re simply looking for general information about your vehicle’s health, these free scans can be a good starting point. However, if you’re experiencing specific problems with your car, it’s best to consult with a professional to get an accurate diagnosis.
