Whether you’re buying a used car, preparing for a road trip, or simply ensuring your vehicle is safe and reliable, a professional vehicle inspection is one of the smartest investments you can make. At Rob’s Automotive Repair in Clackamas, Oregon, our ASE-Certified Technicians provide thorough inspections designed to identify current issues, spot early warning signs, and give you confidence on the road ahead.

Why Vehicle Inspections Matter

Your vehicle is a complex system of parts that work together — and catching small problems early can save you from major repairs later. Our inspections give you a complete picture of your vehicle’s condition so you can make informed decisions about maintenance, repairs, or purchase options.

Common reasons to schedule a vehicle inspection include:

Buying or selling a used vehicle
Preparing for a long trip or move
Inspecting a vehicle that’s been sitting unused
Checking for potential safety or performance issues
Meeting Oregon inspection or registration requirements

No matter the reason, we’ll provide a clear, transparent assessment of your vehicle’s health — with digital photos, technician notes, and prioritized recommendations.

Types of Vehicle Inspections We Offer

Pre-Purchase Vehicle Inspections

If you’re considering a used car, our pre-purchase inspection can help you avoid costly surprises. We evaluate key systems, including:

Engine, transmission, and drivetrain performance
Brake and suspension components
Tire condition and alignment
Electrical and cooling systems
Frame integrity, signs of rust, or previous damage
Road test to check acceleration, handling, and overall drivability

We’ll give you a full report so you know exactly what you’re buying — and whether it’s worth the asking price.

Routine Vehicle Health Inspections

If your vehicle is aging or showing warning lights, our comprehensive inspection ensures everything is operating properly. We check:

Lights, wipers, and safety systems
Brake pads, rotors, and fluid levels
Steering and suspension
Battery, belts, and hoses
Tire tread and air pressure
Cooling, exhaust, and fuel systems

Every inspection includes a Digital Vehicle Inspection (DVI), allowing you to see exactly what we see — with photos and a transparent summary of your vehicle’s condition.

I'm late to review Rob's, as they took care of me back in August, but these guys are amazing!!! Carter was the main employee I spoke with over the phone and he was phenomenal. He also came in on his day off to make sure I had … read more my car secured in a safe place until they opened. Corey also really helped when I came in personally and by going through some paperwork to ensure I wasn't being screwed over by the company I had been going to the last several years (which it turned out i kind of had been). Carter and Corey worked together to find me the best ways to handle the situation and have me honest suggestions without making me feel manipulated into paying for maintenance through they're company - they were there to help and make sure that I was safe while driving my vehicle. While being very professional and knowledgeable, they went up and beyond what I could have hoped for. The company understands that life happens and they do everything (within reason) to work with your time and budget to make sure that their clients are well taken care of and that the work that they do is thorough and accurate.I HIGHLY suggest using Rob's Automotive for your vehicle needs because of their honesty, hard work and their excellent customer service.Thank you again, especially Carter and Corey, for helping me get through a rough time with my little car and helping me feel confident that I made the right choices on how to handle my car issues. I will absolutely be coming back!
