Vehicle Inspection
Looking to buy or sell a vehicle? Give yourself peace of mind; get it inspected. In general, we suggest you get your vehicle inspected at least once every two years. An inspection ensures that your vehicle conforms to safety or emissions regulations. If you are not looking to buy or sell a vehicle, an inspection ensures your car runs at peak performance.

When to Get a Vehicle Inspection
Vehicle inspections protect your investment. Routine inspections are the best way to ensure vehicle longevity and safety, catching issues before they lead to expensive repairs and breakdowns and keeping you and those sharing the road with you safe. We recommend them when you're:
Buying a car
A pre-purchase inspection ensures the discovery of operational issues before you sign on the dotted line.
Selling or inheriting a vehicle
In-depth, multipoint vehicle inspections give buyers confidence, earn you a better price, and protect you against liability.
Taking a long trip
A vehicle inspection can uncover repair issues if your car isn't working the way it should or a service light is on.
Experiencing operational issues
A vehicle inspection can uncover repair issues if your car isn't working the way it should or a service light is on.
Need seasonal maintenance
Prepare your car for summer and winter driving conditions with an in-depth inspection in the fall and spring or after taking your car out of storage.
Our knowledgeable auto mechanics recommend you schedule a vehicle inspection once or twice a year for preventative maintenance. Those operating older vehicles or driving under extreme conditions should get them more often.
