What’s Included in Our Pre-Purchase Inspection

Our comprehensive pre-purchase car inspections cover all the critical systems and components of the vehicle, helping you avoid costly surprises after you buy. Here’s what you can expect when you schedule an inspection with Mobile Mechanic Pros of Oakland:

• Engine and Transmission Check: We inspect the engine for signs of wear, leaks, or other potential issues that could affect performance. We also check the transmission to ensure smooth shifting and detect any problems that might require repairs.
• Brake System Inspection: Your safety is our priority, which is why we thoroughly inspect the brake system, including the pads, rotors, and brake lines, to ensure everything is in good condition.
• Suspension and Steering: We’ll inspect the suspension and steering components to ensure they’re functioning properly and aren’t worn out, providing a comfortable and safe driving experience.
• Fluid Levels and Condition: We’ll check all the vital fluids in the vehicle, including engine oil, transmission fluid, brake fluid, and coolant, to ensure they’re at the proper levels and free from contaminants.
• Tires and Alignment: We inspect the condition of the tires, checking for proper tread depth and any signs of uneven wear, which could indicate alignment issues.
• Exterior and Frame: We’ll inspect the body for signs of previous damage, rust, or repair work, as well as check the frame for structural integrity, ensuring there’s no hidden damage that could compromise safety.
• Interior and Electrical Systems: From checking the functionality of the air conditioning and power windows to ensuring all lights and dashboard indicators work, we’ll assess the overall condition of the interior and electrical systems.
• Test Drive: If allowed, we’ll take the vehicle for a test drive to evaluate its performance on the road, checking for unusual noises, vibrations, or handling issues.

At the end of the inspection, we’ll provide you with a detailed report that includes any issues we’ve identified, so you can negotiate with confidence or walk away from a bad deal.
