How a Mobile Car Inspection Works
You’re making a smart decision by having a certified mechanic inspect a vehicle before you buy it. A professional pre-purchase inspection can help you understand the vehicle’s condition, identify potential issues, and make a more informed decision about the purchase price.
If you’re buying a used car in Burnaby, our mobile pre-purchase inspection service makes the process convenient. Here’s how it works:
Contact the seller to arrange a time to view the vehicle and let them know the purchase is subject to a pre-purchase inspection.
Provide the vehicle details: Send us your contact information, the seller’s contact details, and the vehicle’s location in Burnaby.
Schedule the inspection: We’ll coordinate the mobile pre-purchase inspection with you and the seller.
Before we begin the inspection, we need to take a credit card payment, which can be made over the phone or in person.
After the inspection, you’ll receive a detailed pre-purchase inspection report outlining the vehicle’s condition, identified concerns, and an estimate of recommended repairs where applicable.
