Did you know that a vehicle that once looked like this......Now looks like this and could be sold to you without your knowledge. Would you be able to tell? We can.

An inspection by one of our ASE Master Certified Technicians could prevent you from buying a car like this. Many accidents are never reported. If two neighbors get into an accident, they are more likely to pay for the repairs privately, rather than call the police and insurance companies. So if the accident has never been reported, how will paying for a "Car Report" help? It won't, it's the key flaw in the system. Having a proper inspection of the vehicle can tell you if the vehicle you're interested in has been in a previous accident, and if it has, the quality of the repair work, both mechanically and structurally.

                                                    Has this happened to you?

Despite the change to digital odometers in newer cars, the average buyer would be unaware that odometer tampering would be taking place unless they knew what to look for and how to find it. Besides being a crime, this deception practice can be found only by expertly-trained technicians. Our ASE Master Certified Technicians have the knowledge and the experience to know immediately if your mileage has been tampered with.

                                  Can you tell a well-kept vehicle from a new paint job?

Not always, and not if it's done right. Specially designed gauges in the hands of qualified inspectors can tell if the paint is thicker or thinner than it should be, indicating if a car has been repainted, and the quality of that paint job. This could hide many things on a vehicle that the average consumer would not be aware of because the car "looks good" you can be led to believe that this is a quality vehicle, or that quality repairs have been done, when in fact it may not be. This can happen whether a car is purchased from a dealer or an individual.
