At Welsh Automotive Specialties, we know that buying a car is a major purchase. And before you officially decide to buy a new or used car, you want to ensure that it’s safe, reliable, and worth your investment!
Our team of experienced technicians can complete vehicle inspections at a car before you purchase it to ensure there’s nothing that needs to be fixed or replacement parts ordered beforehand. Our pre-purchase inspections ensure you’re making a smart purchase and one you can trust.
With convenient locations in Exton and West Chester in Chester County, we want to be your destination for preventative maintenance and pre-purchase inspection stations. Here are a few things to consider when deciding on an inspection for the new or used car you’re thinking of purchasing.
With a pre-purchase inspection, our certified technicians can provide you with a thorough overview of the vehicle’s health, giving you both peace of mind and sometimes leverage in price negotiations. For a used or pre-owned car, we can help you identify if it’s a money pit or if there are major issues that need automotive repair.
Some reasons to consider getting a pre-purchase inspection include:
When we say “comprehensive” at Welsh Automotive Specialties, we mean it! Our full-service pre-purchase inspection covers a complete list to get you a full overview of your potential car’s health.
Here are some key areas our certified technicians pay particular attention to during your pre-purchase inspection:
During our inspection, we thoroughly examine the bodywork and structure of the vehicle to see if there were any signs of misalignment or damage from previous accidents or repairs. We'll also check the condition of the lights, windshield, and mirrors to make sure there are no visibility issues.
We'll look closely at your tires and wheels to ensure it's safe to drive. We examine the tires to make sure tire rotation has been completed regularly and look for uneven wear, as this could hint at suspension issues or alignment problems.
We make sure to carefully examine all of the important engine fluids, such as the oil and coolant, to identify any potential leaks. Additionally, we conduct a thorough inspection of the engine belt and hoses, which are crucial components that impact the overall performance of the vehicle. With regular oil changes, your vehicle should be in great condition.
In many areas, having an up-to-date emissions inspection is a legal requirement for car registration or renewal. We can ensure your car meets emissions inspection standards and will earn an inspection sticker.
These systems are crucial to vehicle safety and functionality, so we'll meticulously check the condition of your prospective car's transmission, braking, and suspension system to ensure it's ready to drive off the lot.
From the vehicle's air conditioning to the computer system, we also verify the functionality of integrated electronics, including the car's diagnostic systems. Every aspect of our pre-purchase inspection is undertaken with the utmost care because at Welsh Automotive Specialties, your safety and satisfaction are paramount. This extensive evaluation informs you about the automobile you are about to invest in and ensures you’re getting the quality you deserve. But remember, a pre-purchase inspection is not just about checking items off a list.
