About a week after my inspection, I got this good news (for my other vehicles):
If you are receiving this message, you have an application pending that includes a vehicle for use in the SENTRI lanes. As of November 17, 2015, a
vehicle inspection is no longer required to register your vehicle. Please do not try to schedule a vehicle inspection. If you have a scheduled
appointment on or after November 17, 2015, your vehicle will be processed without an inspection and you will receive an updated notice when the
application is approved. Once approved, the vehicle will be registered for use in the SENTRI lanes.

That is great news, just submitted an application for a 2nd car last Friday.

Except that it may make SENTRI more popular, by reducing the hurdle, and thereby making the SENTRI lanes longer.

I just received the same email, but my vehicle application from 9 weeks ago still says "pending review"?

See my response to your other post.

Good question. Would it be apparent from the application that they are banned vehicles?

From the CBP - GOES website (Global Online Enrollment System):
"Vehicle Inspection No Longer Required
Posted on November 17, 2015
Effective November 17, 2015, a vehicle inspection will no longer be required to register a vehicle for use in the SENTRI lanes. A Vehicle Enrollment
application must still be submitted via your GOES account and the vehicle must be approved prior to use in the lanes. Applicants and members affected
by this change will be receiving an email notification with additional details. If you have a pending vehicle application, please do not attempt to
schedule a vehicle inspection after November 17, 2015."

I assume they will look at the type of vehicle and refuse to register those that are banned.
