Pre-purchase inspections in Los Angeles.
An inspection checks the car’s condition on the day of the inspection. Depending on the car and the checks you agree on, it may include visual and mechanical checks and a diagnostic scan.
Use the findings to ask the seller about repairs and decide what needs attention before you buy. A diagnostic scan helps, but it cannot tell you everything about the car.
What will the inspection cost?
Send the year, model, VIN, mileage, and anything you want checked. We can then discuss a quote for that car. Before booking, confirm what’s included, what report you’ll receive, and how long it will take. Extra diagnostic tests may need a separate quote.
What it cannot promise
An inspection cannot predict every future failure. Some parts are hidden or hard to reach, and a problem that comes and goes may not show up during the visit. It does not include an engine teardown or a title or vehicle-history check. Discuss any extra testing with the shop before booking.
