Questions
Good to know
How much is the inspection?
$180 for cars, SUVs and pickups, by appointment. Commercial and heavy vehicles are quoted separately. You get a written quote before any work starts for any repairs, and there is no obligation to use our partner shops.

Do you issue safety certificates?
No. We are not an MTO / DriveON licensed inspection station and do not issue Safety Standards Certificates. We help you with safety inspection prep, and a licensed station does the official safety inspection and issues the certificate if the vehicle passes.
What if my car has issues that could fail a safety inspection?
Only a licensed inspector at a DriveON station decides whether a vehicle passes. During our inspection we show you what is likely to need attention, and our partner shops do the repairs after giving you a written quote before any work starts, so you go in prepared.
