A car auto inspection report is a comprehensive document that evaluates the condition of a vehicle, including its mechanical, electrical, and structural components, to ensure it meets safety and performance standards.

Regular car inspections help identify potential issues early, ensure the vehicle’s safety, maintain its resale value, and comply with local regulations.

An auto inspection report typically covers:

• Exterior condition (body, paint, tires, lights)
• Interior features (seats, dashboard, air conditioning, electronics)
• Mechanical components (engine, brakes, suspension)
• Undercarriage (rust, leaks)
• Performance tests (engine noise, vibration, road handling)

The duration varies but usually takes 1–2 hours, depending on the vehicle’s type and condition.

• For new cars: Every 12–24 months or as recommended by the manufacturer.
• For older cars: Annually or whenever unusual performance issues arise.
