Buying a used car in 2026 isn't just about kicking the tires and checking the oil. With vehicles becoming "computers on wheels," a simple visual check won't cut it anymore. Whether you’re eyeing a rugged truck, a sleek sedan, or a high-tech EV, you need to know exactly what’s under the hood—and inside the hard drive. At 17th Street Automotive , we don’t just "look" at cars. We interrogate them. Our Pre-Purchase Inspection (PPI) is designed to give you total peace of mind, treating every vehicle as if we were buying it for our own families. The 17th Street "Deep Dive": What’s Included? When you bring a potential purchase to us, we perform a comprehensive 40-point inspection that leaves no bolt unturned. Here’s a look at our process: 1. The Digital Handshake (Computer Diagnostics) We go beyond the "Check Engine" light. We scan all computer modules for pending or history Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs). This reveals hidden issues that might not have triggered a dashboard light yet but are waiting to haunt your wallet later. 2. Identity & Origin Verification We verify the VIN plate and cross-reference the birth month/year. We also decipher if the vehicle is Federal or California-made, which is crucial for future emissions repairs and parts compatibility. 3. Body & Structural Integrity Accident Detection: We check body panels for signs of past accidents or "Bondo" filler repairs. Rust Check: We inspect the underbody for corrosion that could compromise the frame. Lights & Cabin: From the instrument cluster to the spare tire condition, we check every interior/exterior light, seat belt, and the AC/Heat operation. 4. Precision Mechanical & Safety Check We provide a detailed report including pictures and videos of: Brakes: A thorough inspection of inner/outer pad wear and rotor condition. Tires: Age, pressure, tread depth, and TPMS battery condition. Electrical: Battery age, state of charge, and a full test of the starting and "smart charging" systems. Alignment: We check the alignment and then take the car for a long, varied test drive—covering low speeds, bumpy roads, and interstate speeds to catch vibrations or drift. 5. Future-Proofing Your Purchase We don’t just tell you what’s wrong today; we tell you what’s coming tomorrow. TSB & Recalls: We print out Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs) for common manufacturer issues and highlight any open Safety Recalls specific to your VIN. Maintenance Planning: We provide a suggested plan for major tune-ups, timing belt/chain replacement, and upcoming fluid services. Specializing in EVs, Hybrids & Advanced Tech The world is changing, and so are our tools. We specialize in EV, Hybrid, and Plug-in Hybrid (PHEV) inspections. We check battery health and high-voltage systems that standard shops might miss. Plus, we’ll take the time to educate you on ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems). If your car has lane-keep assist or automatic braking, you need to know how it works—and how it behaves when it needs calibration. Our "Date Your Wheels" Program: Once you buy, we offer a session to get you fully familiar with your new vehicle’s features, tech, and quirks. It's the perfect way to start your relationship with your new ride! Can’t Find the Right Car? Let Us Source It! If your search is hitting a dead end, look right next door. 17th Street Automotive Sales shares our parking lot and gives you access to over 200,000 vehicles via nationwide auction sites. Just give us your: Year, Make, and Model Specific wants/needs (Color, trim, features) Budget We’ll find it, inspect it, and make sure it’s 17th Street Certified before you ever sign a paper. Fleet Accounts & Employee Perks Managing a company fleet? We specialize in Fleet Accounts and offer exclusive employee discounts for those within our fleet programs. Keep your business moving and your team safe with our professional maintenance and inspection services. Ready to buy with confidence? Don't let a "good deal" turn into a "money pit."
