Exterior Condition Inspection

A vehicle’s exterior can reveal more than cosmetic wear, including signs of previous damage, rust, uneven panel gaps, or other concerns worth knowing about. We examine the visible condition of the body and exterior components so you have a clearer picture of what you’re considering.

Engine & Transmission Check

The engine and transmission are among the most important systems to evaluate before purchasing a used vehicle, as repairs can be significant when problems arise. We assess their condition and look for signs of leaks, unusual operation, or other concerns that could affect performance and future maintenance needs.

Brake & Suspension Evaluation

Brakes and suspension components directly affect how a vehicle stops, handles, and responds to the road, making their condition an important part of any inspection. We evaluate these systems for visible wear or potential concerns that could require attention after your purchase.

Heating & Cooling System Check

A properly functioning heating and cooling system helps keep the cabin comfortable while the cooling system plays an important role in maintaining proper engine temperature. We check the vehicle’s heating, air conditioning, and cooling-system performance to identify concerns that may need to be addressed.
