What exactly does a pre-purchase inspection do? When you have a pre-purchase inspection completed on a used vehicle here at Duffy's Garage in Baldwin, MD, our experts will perform a bumper to bumper vehicle evaluation to determine the full condition of the car inside and out.
​
A test drive and a quick look at a vehicle won’t give you enough information regarding the overall condition of the vehicle and the financial burden that the car may bring in the future. That is why a full vehicle inspection and analysis is the best way to uncover any underlying issues or maintenance items that will be needed in the near future so you can understand the honest value of the vehicle.
​
We recommend a pre-purchase inspection on any used vehicle that you are considering buying. When you finalize the sale with the seller, you are undertaking all of the financial responsibility moving forward. You want to be sure that when you buy this vehicle, it won’t break down on you the next day and end up costing you more money than you intended to spend.
​
If the seller of the used vehicle is denying your right to a pre-purchase inspection, you may want to reconsider buying from this seller. It is your right to do so and if they are worried about what our mechanics might find, then you should doubt the condition of the car and the honesty of the seller.
