CUSTOMER CONCERNS
Customers #1 Concern:
- Technician's Notes: CUSTOMERS CONCERNS: I'm going to be putting alot of miles on this car so I need to make sure the engine will last and has no issues. Let me know of any scan code results especially the live test.
- TECHNICIAN'S REMARKS: As for overall impressions, this car drove nicely. The scan code literally came up empty without a single code generated. Same for the live test. They did tell me they had an issue with the oxygen sensor and did have that replaced recently.
Concern #2

- TECHNICIAN'S REMARKS: Brakes feel good. Maintenance up to date, Vehicle doesn't pull to sides. See scan code results.

ACCIDENT CHECK
Consistent Panel Gaps
OK
More Information...
Inconsistent panel gaps could mean parts were removed and refitted or replaced.
Overspray
OK
More Information...
Overspray is when the body shop paints a part on the car but some over spray makes it's way to other parts of the car.
Hood Bolts
OK
More Information...
A turned bolt is evidence of a part being removed from the car, such as hoods, doors, trunks, etc. If there is evidence of bolts having been turned, then it's a good indication the vehicle was in some sort of accident (minor or major). It's best to question the owner about this.
Paint Test
OK
More Information...
While some leeway is allowed, gross discrepancies in paint thickness usually means one part of the car was repainted at some point.
Front Frame - Underside
OK
More Information...
A bent or buckled frame is clear evidence that an accident has occurred.
