In NC we have to have the car inspected, pay our insurance bill and pay the personal property taxes along with the registration. All of that can be dine by mail or online except the Inspection. It isn't much of an inspection but it still needs to be done by somebody which means going to shop. Have already received the insurance bill and the personal property tax and registration bills.

also in NC you can renew your drivers license online. Easy 5 minute process, enter CC info, and usually Dl appears in your mailbox in about a week.

At a minimum I will need to disinfect the door handles and the driver's area before getting into the car to drive it home.Bill
While the virus is serious it's not invulnerable. It's apparently pretty delicate. Just let the vehicle sit out in the sun a few hours and the virus will be history. Life in general doesn't like UV light. If you want to find out for yourself just lay out in the sun for a couple of hours.
With as you say things not being normal do you want to go near the dealership? I have three cars that need to be inspected by the end of May before I can renew their registrations and have been wondering how I am going to handle that issue. Right now I know none of them have a contamination issue. Once out of my hands at a dealership that all goes out the window. I figure I can social distance myself from the Service Writer but the car won't be able to do that with the car jockeys that move it around and the mechanics that work on it. At a minimum I will need to disinfect the door handles and the driver's area before getting into the car to drive it home.

you're not catching this bug off surfaces Bill. Look into it. Only the carcass of the virus is being found on surfaces. The RNA. Big hubbub about nothing we are scrubbing and disinfecting ourselves to death. Natural reaction. But not necessary for this particular virus. It is when it is expelled and makes it into you directly through the air in the droplets that are causing the spread. Open the windows and in no time you're good to go.
Not saying you can't catch God knows what else lmao.
OP. That sucks. Best of luck with these maniacs muscling the box open to access the motor if it doesn't come back on. Make sure you inspect that glove box door and hardware frame etc when you get it back.
