Questions about used car inspection
Is this a safety certificate?
No. A pre-purchase inspection helps you decide whether to buy. A Safety Standards Certificate is a separate Ontario inspection.
Can the seller bring the car?
Yes. Ask the seller to bring it in, or bring it yourself on a test drive.
Will it find every problem?
We report what we can see and test. Some problems only show up later or under certain conditions.
Need something done on your car?
Book a time for when we open, and we'll call or text to confirm it.
