❓ FAQ Page

  • 🚗 What types of vehicles do you inspect?

    We inspect most cars, trucks, and SUVs—up to 25 years old.
    We do not inspect classic or vintage vehicles.

  • 📄 What about Carfax or AutoCheck? Don’t those show everything?

    Vehicle history reports like Carfax or AutoCheck are useful—but they only show what’s been officially reported to insurance companies, DMVs, or service facilities.

    They cannot tell you the current condition of the vehicle.

    For example, a car might have no accident history but still have:

    Worn brakes or tires

    Fluid leaks

    Suspension damage

    Inoperative lights or electronics

    Structural rust

    Open recalls

    That’s where our service comes in.
    A report can show the past—we show you what’s happening right now.

  • ⚖️ Will you tell me whether I should buy the vehicle?

    ClearPath Auto Check provides independent third-party vehicle inspections intended to help clients make more informed purchasing decisions.

    We remain neutral regarding the purchase decision itself and do not recommend for or against the purchase of a specific vehicle. Our goal is to document observable vehicle condition, operational behavior, diagnostic information, and notable findings at the time of inspection so clients can evaluate the vehicle using objective information.

    Because used vehicles can develop future issues regardless of current condition, no inspection can guarantee future reliability, future repair costs, or long-term ownership experience.
