Why Hiddenite drivers book mobile pre-purchase inspection
Hiddenite is gem-mine country west on US-64. Plenty of gravel and no shop for miles, so we come to you. We've done plenty of pre-purchase inspection jobs in this part of Alexander County, and the process is the same everywhere: confirm the problem, quote it, fix it, and clean up.
What's included
Buying a used car off Marketplace or from a lot on US-21 without an independent inspection is a coin flip. We meet you at the seller's location, spend an hour going through the car with a scan tool, paint gauge, and a flashlight, and hand you a written report you can negotiate with. We've talked people out of lemons and into good deals in equal measure.
- Scan every module for current, pending, and cleared codes
- Check for accident repair with a paint-depth gauge and panel gaps
- Inspect the engine, transmission, cooling system, and fluids
- Check brakes, tires, suspension, and steering on the ground and underneath
- Test every electrical feature and the A/C
- Road-test and deliver a written report with photos
Signs it's time
- You're buying a used car from a private seller or dealer
- The seller says 'it just needs a little work'
- The Carfax is clean but something feels off
- You want leverage to negotiate the price
