Frequently Asked Questions
Can I bring any car to you for a pre-purchase inspection?
Yes — bring the vehicle to our shop at 15147 Rockwell Blvd, Houston TX 77085. If the seller won't allow an independent inspection, that's a red flag worth noting.
What does a pre-purchase inspection cover?
We inspect the engine, transmission, brakes, suspension, steering, tires, fluids, electrical systems, and run a full diagnostic scan. We also check for rust, frame damage, and signs of prior accident repairs.
How long does a pre-purchase inspection take?
Typically 45–90 minutes. We recommend scheduling in advance so we can give the vehicle the time it deserves. Call or text us at 832-770-4927 to set up a time.
What if the inspection finds problems?
We give you a written report with everything we found. You can use it to negotiate the price, ask the seller to make repairs, or walk away from the deal. Either way, you'll know exactly what you're getting into.
