Buyer’s Vehicle Inspections

Buying a new vehicle? Great, have our trained automotive mechanics perform a pre-purchase vehicle inspection before you buy for that added peace of mind.

Perform a highway test drive
Perform a complete scan of the vehicle’s computer systems
Test every button and switch inside your vehicle
Test the heating and air conditioning
Inspect the the vehicle for body damage, rust, and signs of neglect or disrepair
Check the brakes and all the vital fluids
Check all belts and hoses

Does this guarantee the car will last forever? Unfortunately, there is only so much we can check on a pre-purchase inspection and we cannot guarantee against future failure. However, getting a buyer’s inspection done gives you the best chance at purchasing a vehicle in great condition!
