What’s included

An inspection is a general check of your vehicle’s condition, and a starting point when something feels different but you do not know which service to ask for. Tell the advisor what you have noticed; they look it over, explain what they find and what can wait, and quote any work separately. Ask the store to confirm the inspection price before the visit.

  • Tell us what you noticed

    Describe the symptom, when it happens and any warning light, so the check starts where it matters.
  • A look at the vehicle

    The advisor checks the areas of concern and the vehicle’s general condition.
  • Your findings, no obligation

    Review what was found and what can wait. Any repair is quoted separately and only done with your approval.

How it works

When something feels, sounds or looks different and you are not sure which service to ask for, start with an inspection. Your advisor looks the vehicle over, explains what they find and what can wait, and quotes anything that needs work before it is done.

  1. A technician listening to a customer beside a car

    Step 1: Start with what you noticed

    Tell your advisor what you hear, feel or see, and when it happens.
  2. A technician shining a flashlight through a wheel at the brakes

    Step 2: Check the areas of concern

    The technician looks where it matters, like the brakes behind the wheel, and at the vehicle’s general condition.
  3. A technician showing findings on a tablet to a customer

    Step 3: Decide what’s next

    You get the findings and what can wait. Nothing is done without your approval.

What does the inspection cost?

The current catalogue shows whether an inspection is free, fixed-price or quoted at the store. Confirm the price and scope before the visit. Any repair or maintenance it points to is quoted separately and only done with your approval.

Does it replace a specific service?

No. If you already know what you need, such as a brake inspection or an oil change, choose that service. The inspection is for when you are not sure where to start.

How much does vehicle inspection cost?

It depends on your vehicle and what it needs, so your store quotes it after looking at the vehicle and before any work is done.

How long does vehicle inspection take?

Plan on about 30 min in the bay. Your advisor tells you before starting if your vehicle needs longer, for example when parts must be ordered.

Do I pay when I book?

No. Booking online is free and there is no payment today. You pay at Anaheim after the work is done.

Can I wait while it’s done?

Yes. When you book, choose whether you’ll wait or drop off your vehicle, and your store plans the visit around it.

Can I combine this with another service?

Yes. You can choose several services when you book. Your store reviews the work you chose, available parts and time needed before confirming.
