eQualityMotors' 5-Step “Multi-Point” Inspection
At eQualityMotors we pride ourselves in how we select and recondition our vehicles. Every vehicle we buy for our inventory is extensively researched before purchase to ensure it meets our standards. It is then test driven a minimum of 50 miles before it goes to our ASE Certified Technician for inspection. The technician does a 5-Step, multi-point inspection that ends with a thorough test drive. The technician then carries out the necessary mechanical, drivability and safety work necessary for the car to be safe and “Turn Key Ready” for it’s new owner. The vehicle then receives a NC State and Safety Inspection.
