Can McCabe inspect cars from a dealership?
Yes, we can inspect cars from a dealership. In fact, it is highly recommended that you get a pre-purchase inspection from a third-party mechanic, like McCabe’s, when buying a used car from a dealership. Dealerships may have their own inspections, but these are often not as comprehensive as an independent inspection. By getting an inspection from McCabe’s, you can ensure that you are getting an unbiased opinion of the vehicle’s condition.
Our pre-purchase inspection can also be a valuable tool for negotiating with the dealership. If we find any issues or concerns with the vehicle, you can use this information to negotiate a better price or ask the dealership to fix the issues before you make the purchase.
