PRE-PURCHASE INSPECTION

A pre-purchase inspection is a thorough examination of a used vehicle by a qualified mechanic before you buy it. It helps identify any existing or potential issues with the vehicle, allowing you to make an informed decision about whether to purchase it. Signs that indicate it's time for a pre-purchase inspection include buying a used vehicle, especially if it's from a private seller, dealership, or auction, to ensure it's in good condition and worth the investment. A pre-purchase inspection can uncover hidden problems and save you from expensive repairs down the road.
