The Indispensable Need for Pre-Purchase Inspections for Used Cars

Are you considering purchasing a used car? Do you understand the risks and common problems associated with pre-owned vehicles? Here's why you should consider conducting a pre-purchase inspection at Rowville Auto, your best choice for this essential service.

In the world of used cars, making the right purchase is more than just love at first sight. Ensuring your car is mechanically sound, safe, and worth every penny you invest in it is crucial. As a competent car enthusiast or simply a smart buyer, recognising the value of pre-purchase inspections should be part of your deal-seeking strategy.

Top Safety Reasons for Pre-Purchase Inspections at Rowville Auto

Pre-purchase inspections serve as an eye-opening journey into a used car's inner health, focusing significantly on safety. Here are the top three reasons you shouldn't skimp on this process:

  1. Brakes and Tyres: Hidden brake issues or worn-out tyres are risks that may lead to devastating accidents. The expert team at Rowville Auto offers comprehensive inspections that can catch these issues
  2. Airbags and Seatbelts: An inspection is needed to ensure these lifesaving devices are working as they should.
  3. Engine and Transmission Health: Checking for possible leaks, transmission shudder or abnormal noises will prevent possible engine breakdowns or fatal malfunctions while on the road.

Three Common Problems that Used Cars Hide

Buying used can seem like an incredible deal, but be wary of these common pitfalls:

  1. Engine Troubles: The inspection team at Rowville Auto is trained to spot problematic issues like oil leaks, damaged belts or hoses that can indicate significant engine trouble.
  2. Body and Frame Damage: A visual inspection can help identify possible accident damage or issues due to rust and corrosion.
  3. Worn Out Parts: Inspecting parts like shocks, struts, or wheel bearings can help find out if they are worn out and may fail in the near future.
