Don`t compromise on road safety

Whether it`s a pre-purchase or government commercial vehicle inspection, taking the necessary steps to ensure the vehicle is in top condition is crucial for safe and responsible driving.

Car owners must not ignore the dashboard lights because this is one of the ways your vehicle sends you a message for help.

Take your car to GreatYear Automotive’s Inspection Facility, so you can get a professional safety inspection done.

The most important element of pre-purchase vehicle inspection? Your piece of mind.

Get the vehicle inspected to gain a negotiation advantage and pressure the seller to get a discount if you like the car. Investing in a pre-purchase inspection and knowing your future car history can save you time, money, and headache.

We will walk you through the car inspection process, giving you as much information, so you can make an informed decision.

Commercial vehicles must be inspected immediately
