No. Your car did fail. You should've received a failure report. Stating why it failed. But, you do get a time period (commenter said 10 days, it was a month iirc when I was a tech) to get it repaired and go back for a free re inspection. You're also safe from persecution of officers for an expired sticker with that failure receipt. However after the time period, you are fair game to cops and the DMV and will also have to repay for another inspection.

It didn't because they didn't start the inspection. I pulled in, the advisor came out to check me in, took a look at the car and said it would fail with the chip and asked if I wanted to proceed and I declined. I'm gonna actually get an inspection tomorrow and if I fail (which seems likely) I'll start the process of getting the repair.
