These thorough inspections take anywhere from 1-2 hours. This is because we test drive for any driving concerns. Also making sure the AC is blowing cold and the power windows and locks are working as they should. Also checking for any leaks and corrosion and make sure it wasn't in any wreck. We scan the computer to make sure there are no stored codes. Then we go in-debth and check fluids, steering and suspension, braking system, and engine cooling system. All of this comes to you via text message or email. You can take the time to look at all the photos and videos showing the issues our technicians ran across. https://www.crabtreeautorepair.com/appointments

Every year! We suggest getting your AC unit tested in May or June before the hot weather hits. If you live in a climate that is hot for a very long time you might even want to get it serviced twice a year. Maintaining your AC unit makes for better summer trips. https://www.crabtreeautorepair.com/appointments
