Engine and Transmission Checks
When inspecting a used vehicle, technicians start with the engine and transmission. They check for any leaks, unusual noises, or warning lights. The engine should run smoothly without shaking or making strange sounds. Near Lafayette, IN, our certified technicians test these systems thoroughly.
Brakes and Tires
Safe driving requires good brakes and tires. Inspectors measure brake pad thickness and check brake fluid levels. They also examine tire tread depth and look for uneven wear patterns. These components directly affect your safety on the road.
Electrical Systems and Safety Features
Modern vehicles have many electrical components. Technicians test headlights, turn signals, windshield wipers, and dashboard controls. They also verify that airbags, seat belts, and other safety features work properly.
Test Drive and Final Review
A test drive reveals how the vehicle handles on the road. Inspectors listen for unusual sounds and check steering response. They also test the heating and cooling systems. After passing all inspection points, vehicles join our used inventory at Lewis Motor Sales Inc on Sagamore Pkwy S.
