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
