I've been in the car repair business my whole life, so here's my take. I feel like it's useless on new cars, although if you drive a fairly new Honda CR-V, at 25000 miles you're probably gonna need tires. Not all shops are out to make that easy buck, but keep in mind that the technician's state inspection license is on the line if he misses something or lets something slide. A lot of drivers just want that sticker on the windshield...they don't care if their brakes are unsafe, or if oil leaking onto their red hot catalytic converter could cause a fire. State inspection is the only way some drivers find out they actually have a problem!
