Opt for our pre-purchase inspection for used cars. Before buying a chosen car, let us thoroughly check it for potential issues. Used cars can have subtle problems not easily noticed. We inspect belts, brakes, tires, hoses, rust, body damage, and leaks. Our diagnostic computer checks for trouble codes related to the engine, transmission, and brake system. We test accessories like air conditioning, radio, power locks, and windows, and we conduct a test drive for a comprehensive evaluation.
Car buying tip:
Before considering a car as a candidate, obtain the VIN (serial number) from the seller and obtain a CARFAX report. The CARFAX report provides valuable information, including whether the title is clean (not salvage or flood), the number of previous owners, and any reported significant accident damage. It also indicates the car’s location of origin. This is vital information as a car from an area like the northeast may potentially have significant rust. Rust can compromise the frame and other components, leading to more costly future repairs.
