Pre-Purchase inspections
A used vehicle can hide a troubled past — poor repairs, hidden rust, frame damage, or cheap bodywork. At AWM Automotive Services And Autobody, our certified technicians go beyond a basic test drive. We inspect the structure, paint, body panels, and repair history using the latest dent pulling and frame analysis technology. Whether it’s a car, boat, or personal watercraft, we give you an honest, detailed report. With competitive pricing and dealer discounts available, a pre-purchase inspection is the smartest money you’ll spend.
When Do You Need Pre-Purchase inspections?
Before buying a used car or truck – Especially if the vehicle has a suspicious history, mismatched paint, or uneven panel gaps.
When purchasing a salvage or rebuilt title vehicle – To verify if frame repairs and bodywork were done correctly and safely.
Before buying a boat, Jet Ski, or fiberglass watercraft – Hidden cracks, structural damage, or poor fiberglass repairs can be dangerous.
When buying from a private seller or auction – No warranty means you bear all the risk. Let us uncover hidden collision damage or rust before you commit.
