A checked-off description and the license plate could be sent to the state and they take it from there. For egregious faults, registration renewal could be prevented without proof of repair. That would keep the major clunkers off public roads and not be such a transparent business development program for garages as motorists could get it repaired at a place/time of their choice.

Good idea - sounds like an inspection, but instead of once a year, every time your go for service!
