Why Get a Pre-Purchase Inspection?
A car might look great on the outside, but underlying mechanical issues could lead to expensive repairs down the road. Whether you’re buying from a private seller in Mount Pleasant, West Ashley, or Downtown Charleston, or checking out a dealership in North Charleston, an independent pre-purchase inspection (PPI) gives you confidence in your decision.
What Our Inspection Helps You Avoid:
- Costly Hidden Repairs – We identify potential engine, transmission, or brake issues.
- Odometer & Mileage Fraud – Ensure the mileage aligns with the car’s wear and tear.
- Frame or Flood Damage – Detect signs of past accidents or water exposure.
- Faulty Electrical Systems – Avoid expensive electrical problems down the line.
- Suspension & Steering Issues – Ensure a smooth and safe ride.
A small investment in an inspection can save you thousands in unexpected repairs.
