Used Vehicle Pre-Purchase Inspection

Buying a used vehicle is a major financial decision, and it can also be one of the riskiest. At Parker Automotive & Diesel, we provide thorough pre-purchase inspections so you can feel confident before making the investment. Whether you are shopping for a family car, a reliable commuter, or a work-ready pickup, our Moncks Corner team helps you know the full story behind the vehicle.

A test drive may give you a sense of how a car feels on the road, but it won’t reveal hidden problems that could cost thousands later. That’s where a professional inspection makes the difference. Our experienced technicians carefully check the engine, transmission, brakes, suspension, tires, fluids, electronics, and overall safety systems. We also run a diagnostic scan to detect fault codes or issues that may not yet be obvious.

For trucks, especially work and diesel models – this service is particularly valuable. These vehicles often endure heavier use, and problems can remain hidden until after purchase. Because our technicians specialize in both gasoline and diesel engines, we are uniquely equipped to determine whether a truck is truly road-ready or masking costly repairs.

Serving Moncks Corner, Berkeley County, and the Lowcountry, we understand that our customers depend on reliable vehicles for family, work, and travel. That’s why our process is designed to be both detailed and honest. After the inspection, we provide a clear written report with professional recommendations. With this knowledge, you can negotiate a fair price, avoid expensive surprises, or decide to walk away from a poor investment.
