What Happens During a Car Inspection?

We'll examine several key areas during a car inspection at our auto service center in Roanoke, VA. Some of them are:

Tires

The first thing we'll do is examine your tires. We aim to ensure they're all the same size and style, which is crucial for maintaining a smooth ride.

After that, we'll measure how deep each tire's tread is. Then, we'll rotate the tires to keep them wearing evenly. If the treads are too worn down, it may be time for new tires.

Lights

A visual inspection of your vehicle's exterior and interior lights will help us determine if any bulbs need replacement.

Brakes

Your brakes are essential to your safety, so always keep them in excellent condition. To determine whether it holds steady while in gear, we will check that the parking brake engages. We'll inspect the brake pads for wear and if they need replacement.

Steering and Suspension

The next step is to inspect the steering system. It is important that everything is tight and nothing is broken. It is also necessary to check the suspension. Inspecting springs and shocks is necessary, as these can impact alignment.

Fluid Leaks

Our service technicians will also inspect your engine oil and transmission fluid for leaks.

Cooling System and Hoses

Keeping your cooling system in good shape prevents your car's engine from overheating. We will carefully inspect the radiator, thermostat, water pump, and hoses to ensure all parts are working properly.

Drive Belt Condition

Your vehicle's engine relies on its drive belts to keep everything running smoothly. As part of an inspection, we will check for cracks or wear and tear on the drive belt and check its tension.

Additionally, we'll check your dashboard for warning lights like "Check Engine." If they come on, one of those emissions control parts might be malfunctioning. Don't forget to have your engine serviced immediately if it is misfiring or fitting poorly.
