Hard Data,

Not Opinions.

Paving the Way for Confident Decision-Making

When it comes to buying or selling vehicles, subjective information can be misleading. That’s why we use objective data collection methods that provide accurate and reliable information. Our approach allows you to make confident decisions that are right for your business.

OBJECTIVE DATA MEANS

RELIABLE RESULTS

Objective data collection is the cornerstone of our inspections. We use advanced technology to gather accurate information about a vehicle’s mechanical condition, cosmetic damage, and other important details. We employ a suite of data collection methods to ensure an unbiased and complete picture of every vehicle, allowing you to make the decisions that are right for your business.

Diagnostic Trouble Codes

 Our DTCs are sourced from on-board diagnostics (OBDII) and described using industry-standard terms, allowing consistency and accuracy. With codes updated in near real-time, every time the vehicle is started while on the lot, you can be sure they’re always up to date.

Mechanical Condition

Our expert inspectors provide observations, not opinions, on the vehicle’s mechanical condition that DTCs may not uncover. This includes engine noise, transmission shifting, and other essential factors affecting a vehicle’s condition. For a more robust mechanical inspection, Post Sale Inspection and Limited Powertrain Inspection are available to guarantee the vehicle’s mechanical condition.
