“Excellent experience. Great price for high quality trailer tires and rims (they match my truck!). I bought Goodride Radial tires, load D 205/75/R14 on Black Machine Aluminum Rims. Very knowledgeable, friendly and efficient staff. Highly recommend Auto Add-Ons.”

Vehicle Inspection Tips

Always get a pre-purchase inspection before buying any used vehicle—it's the best \$150-\$200 investment you can make
Address known issues before bringing your vehicle in for a safety inspection to avoid re-inspection fees
Keep your inspection report as documentation for insurance and resale value
Budget for potential repairs—inspection failures often involve brakes, tires, or rust remediation
Book your out-of-province inspection promptly after moving to avoid registration delays
Ask the inspector to walk you through any noted deficiencies so you understand the full scope of repairs needed

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a vehicle inspection cost in Kingston? +
A standard provincial safety inspection costs $100-$200. Pre-purchase inspections are typically $150-$250. Commercial CVIP inspections range from $200-$400 depending on vehicle class.
What happens if my vehicle fails inspection? +
The inspector will provide a detailed list of items that must be repaired. Once repairs are completed, you return for a re-inspection (often at a reduced fee) to verify the issues are resolved.
Is a pre-purchase inspection really worth it? +
Absolutely. A $150 inspection can save you thousands by uncovering hidden problems like frame rust, transmission issues, or prior accident damage that aren't visible to untrained eyes.
How long does a vehicle inspection take? +
A standard safety inspection takes 30-60 minutes. A comprehensive pre-purchase inspection with a full road test takes 1 to 2 hours.
