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.

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.
Step 1: Start with what you noticed
Tell your advisor what you hear, feel or see, and when it happens.
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.
Step 3: Decide what’s next
You get the findings and what can wait. Nothing is done without your approval.
