AirCheckTexas Drive a Clean Machine Program

The AirCheckTexas Drive a Clean Machine Program is designed to help vehicle owners comply with vehicle emissions standards. It targets the highest polluting vehicles by offering financial incentives to repair or remove them from the roadways, and allows citizens to contribute to the regional air quality solution.

Residents of the Dallas-Fort Worth nonattainment counties
(Collin, Dallas, Denton, Ellis, Johnson, Kaufman, Parker, Rockwall, and Tarrant) may be eligible to receive vouchers for $3,000 toward the purchase of a newer qualifying car or truck and $3,500 toward a qualifying hybrid vehicle from participating auto dealers. Up to $600 for emissions repair assistance is available. Recipients must meet income requirements and vehicles must meet certain conditions.  For more information about the AirCheckTexas Drive a Clean Machine program, please use the links at the right of this page or contact us at 1-800-898-9103.

For repair or replacement assistance, a voucher must be presented to a listed participating repair facility or dealership at the time of the emissions repairs or vehicle purchase.  No reimbursements are allowed if emissions repairs or vehicle purchase are made prior to receiving a valid voucher.
