Get Your Vehicle Inspected by a Chevy Dealer at Least Once a Year
You can drive with confidence when you know your vehicle has passed a performance and safety inspection. While many other states require an annual vehicle inspection by law, Michigan does not. Still, allowing a mechanic to look at your car or truck at least once a year is a good rule of thumb to prevent avoidable accidents and vehicle damage.
Why Should I Have My Car Inspected?
Every year, drivers experience thousands of accidents that could have been prevented with an inspection. However, there are several other reasons to have your car inspected, as well.
You Are Planning a Road Trip
The wisest vehicle owners know how important it is to get your car or truck inspected before a road trip. Most likely, you will travel a long distance at high speeds, so you need to know whether your vehicle can handle it.
You Prefer to Avoid Costly Repairs
The minor cost of a simple inspection will help you avoid pricey repairs later on in your car ownership journey. Save yourself the time, money, and stress of a breakdown.
You Want Your Car or Truck to Perform Its Best
You love your vehicle because you trust it to start up and perform every day. To keep it in the best shape possible, schedule an inspection once or twice a year.
You Care About the Environment
Getting your car inspected can help you save on gasoline and reduce emissions. Save money and the environment by scheduling a performance inspection today.
What Are the Most Commonly Inspected Car Parts?
Give your car parts a thorough once-over at your local Chevrolet dealership. A safety inspection is more detailed than your regularly scheduled maintenance, covering car parts that maintenance inspections overlook. Some of the most commonly inspected car parts during a vehicle safety checkup include:
- Mirrors — Repair or replace mirrors with chips, cracks, or warping
- Bumpers — Fix any looseness or minor damage and replace bumpers with major damage
- Clutch — Check for wear and replace to avoid slipping, jerking, and transmission failure
- Seatbelts — Test the locking mechanism and examine belts for fraying
