Repairable write-offs (RWO)
It's strongly recommended that a repair diary is presented for all RWO vehicles when presenting the vehicle for its Tier 1 and 3 inspections. Failure to present a repair diary could result in the vehicle being failed for inspection.
If you would like to know whether your vehicle has been classified as an RWO, contact AIS compliance on 6166 3271.
