Used vehicle pre-purchase inspection in Montréal

An inspection before you buy costs a fraction of a bad surprise. We examine the vehicle as if we were buying it ourselves and give you a clear report to decide or negotiate.

What we inspect

Engine and transmission, leaks, brakes, suspension, steering, tires, electrical system, stored error codes, and above all rust on the frame and rocker panels, the weak point of Québec vehicles.

A report you can negotiate with

Each item is rated: good, plan for it, needs fixing. With estimated repair costs, you know exactly what you're buying and what the price should reflect.

What's included

  • Full mechanical inspection on the lift
  • Rust and body assessment
  • Code reading from all modules
  • Road test
  • Written report with repair estimates

Frequently asked questions

Does the seller need to be there?

No. You or the seller bring the vehicle, and we send you the report. A seller who refuses an inspection is telling you something.

How long does it take?

About an hour to an hour and a half. Book ahead to reserve the slot.

Do you check the vehicle's history?

We check manufacturer recalls against the VIN. For accident and ownership history, we recommend a vehicle history report alongside.
