AirCheckTexas Drive a Clean Machine Program

Program funds are almost exhausted for this fiscal year.  The last day to submit a replacement application is July 2, 2009. 

 All replacement applications received from June 8, 2009, through July 2, 2009, will be processed and, if approved, issued an approval letter; however, a voucher will not be issued until additional funds become available or September, 1, 2009, whichever happens first.

Replacement applications received after July 2, 2009, will not be processed.  Applicants will be mailed a note asking them to reapply after August 3, 2009.

The program will continue to accept repair applications for vehicle emissions repair assistance.

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 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
