I know in NY, if a shop fails the vehicle on it's yearly state inspection, the next shop will see it on the report that's generated.
I hear you though. Busy shops in my area will put the vehicle up on the lift and pull a wheel, but wheel bearings and lots of other items would likely be overlooked.
I thought the first thing they do is scrap off the 'old' Inspection Sticker.
Then if it 'fails', you have (legally) till the end of the Month to get it fixed & reinspected.
The OP seems honest.
He should take it back to a different shop and say he fixed it.
At that point, it will either PASS or FAIL.
