Regarding the case of the 50-05V Vehicle Inspection Center - Hong Ha Branch (Tan Binh District, Ho Chi Minh City) "failing" the inspection of the original Mercedes C250 Exclusive of Mr. Long Vu (residing in Thu Duc City, Ho Chi Minh City), responding to VTC News reporter on the evening of May 21, the Center's representative confirmed that the inspector was wrong. This employee was asked by the center to write a report and send it to the Vietnam Register.
A representative of the 5005V Vehicle Inspection Center – Hong Ha Branch (Tan Binh District) has made an appointment with Mr. Long Vu to resolve the issue of his vehicle being “failed” for vehicle inspection. The Center will work in a receptive spirit and support Mr. Vu with priority inspection and support all inspection costs.

Mr. Long Vu shared that the representative of the Vietnam Register also discussed with him about the fact that the 5005V Registration Center - Hong Ha Branch "failed" the registration of his original Mercedes C250 Exclusive.
Accordingly, the Vietnam Register announced that Mr. Vu's original Mercedes car was "failed" in inspection due to a system error and confirmed that Mr. Vu's car was not a modified car, this version had been registered by Mercedes.
Previously, on the afternoon of May 17, inspector Tran Vu Phuong inspected Mr. Long Vu's Mercedes. Mr. Vu's car had all the original documents, no modifications or structural changes.
However, after checking all the items of the car, when taking photos of the car, inspector Tran Vu Phuong called Mr. Vu back and reported that the grille of his car had been replaced and was not in accordance with the technical documents of the car when it left the factory.
Mr. Vu told inspector Tran Vu Phuong that the Mercedes C250 (W205) has 2 versions sold to consumers.
The first version is the C250 AMG, similar to the image in the registration system file that inspector Tran Vu Phuong printed and showed to Mr. Vu. The second version is the C250 Exclusive, similar to Mr. Vu's car.
However, inspector Tran Vu Phuong still affirmed that Mr. Vu's car had a new grille, did not process the inspection, returned the file and forced him to change the grille and bumper to the C250 AMG version to be re-inspected.
At 4:00 p.m. on May 17, Mr. Vu contacted Mercedes and asked the company to check the VIN number (origin) of the car to prove that the grille of his car was a C250 Exclusive.
At 5:00 p.m. the same day, Mr. Vu returned to the Motor Vehicle Inspection Center No. 5005V - Hong Ha Branch to submit images showing that the Mercedes C250 (W205) has 2 versions, AMG and Exclusive, along with images verifying that the car's grille is original, not modified. However, inspector Tran Vu Phuong was still sure that Mr. Vu's car was in violation, refused to register, returned the documents and asked him to fix the car.
Mr. Vu also provided the inspector with evidence in the form of document No. 5239/ĐKVN-VAR issued by the Vietnam Register on December 26, 2022, announcing 6 items that are assessed as defects and unimportant damage, the vehicle is still granted a Certificate of Technical Safety and Environmental Protection. Specifically, "the replacement radiator grille and grille have the same shape, size, and material as the old radiator grille and grille, and do not change the structure of the vehicle".
The Mercedes owner said that the above regulation shows that even if Mr. Vu changed the front grille but did not change the size of the car, his car would still be eligible for inspection and would not violate and be "failed" for inspection as inspector Tran Vu Phuong concluded.
In addition, the Motor Vehicle Inspection Center No. 5005V - Hong Ha Branch also contacted the Motor Vehicle Inspection Center No. 6601S in Cao Lanh City, Dong Thap Province to verify the image of Mr. Vu's car that was previously saved. The image that the two centers exchanged clearly shows the front of the car 66A-024.68 from previous inspections, similar to the current condition of Mr. Vu's car.
However, the inspectors of the Motor Vehicle Inspection Center No. 5005V - Hong Ha Branch still did not accept the results and concluded that "Center 6601S may not have fully understood the vehicle's technical specifications, made a mistake, and Center 5005V cannot continue to make that mistake."
