FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

1. What is a pre-purchase inspection (PPI)?

A pre-purchase inspection is a comprehensive assessment of a vehicle’s condition to help buyers understand its current state before making a purchase. It identifies potential issues, safety concerns, and future maintenance needs.

 

2. Why should I get a PPI?

A PPI helps you avoid costly surprises by uncovering hidden issues that may not be visible during a casual inspection or test drive. It ensures you’re making an informed decision and negotiating with confidence.

 

3. What’s the difference between the Standard and Premium Plans?

The Standard Plan includes an exterior inspection, tire and brake check, fluid level assessment, interior review, and a basic test drive. The Premium Plan goes further with advanced diagnostics, undercarriage inspection, suspension and steering checks, and a detailed report with photos.

 

4. How long does an inspection take?

Standard inspections typically take about 1-2 hours, while Premium inspections may take 2-3 hours, depending on the vehicle’s condition and complexity.

 

5. Do you inspect all types of vehicles?

We inspect most passenger vehicles, including sedans, SUVs, and trucks. For specialty vehicles like motorcycles, RVs, or classic cars, please contact us for availability.

 

6. Do you provide mobile inspection services?

Yes, we offer mobile inspection services where we come to the vehicle’s location, whether it’s at a dealership, private seller’s location, or storage facility.

 

7. Can you tell me if a car has been in an accident?

While we cannot guarantee to identify all past accidents, we look for signs of repairs, frame damage, and inconsistencies. For complete accident history, we recommend obtaining a vehicle history report.

 

8. Will you negotiate the price with the seller on my behalf?

No, we provide an unbiased evaluation of the vehicle’s condition. The negotiation is up to you, but our detailed report can help strengthen your position.

 

9. What happens if the car doesn’t pass inspection?

There is no “pass” or “fail.” Instead, we provide a thorough report of the vehicle’s condition, highlighting any concerns or potential future costs, so you can decide if it’s the right investment for you.
