How It Works

Three Steps to
Peace of Mind

We built PPI Auto for buyers who want straight answers fast — before the dealer closes or the private seller ghosts you.

STEP 01

You Call Us

Tell us the vehicle and where it's located. No online forms, no booking systems. One call to 951-267-8500 and we're on it.

STEP 02

We Inspect It

Our certified Supercanic technicians go to the vehicle — dealership, private seller, auction, anywhere in the 48 states. Full 125-point inspection, history report, OBD-II scan.

STEP 03

You Get the Facts

We walk you through every finding. No bias, no seller influence. You buy with confidence — or you walk away knowing you dodged a lemon.

The Supercanic Team

Real Mechanics.
Real Answers.

PPI Auto inspectors aren't clipboard checkers or third-party contractors. They're trained Supercanic technicians who know how to find what sellers don't want found — hidden frame damage, freshly cleared fault codes, rolled-back odometers, and deferred maintenance that will hit you the moment you drive off the lot.

We run a full OBD-II diagnostic on every vehicle. If the check engine light was cleared the day before the sale, we catch it. If the readiness monitors aren't set, you'll know before you ever own it.

Comprehensive Vehicle Report

We Run the Full
History Check

Before you hand over a dollar, we pull a comprehensive vehicle history report so you see exactly what that car has been through — not just what the seller wants you to know.

🔬

Smog Readiness & Code Check

We verify the vehicle is actually ready to smog — not just scrubbed clean. If codes were recently cleared to hide a check engine light, our OBD-II scan catches it. We check all readiness monitors so you won't get surprised at the smog station after you've already signed.

🔢

Odometer Rollback Detection

We cross-reference mileage against service records, title history, and inspection data to flag any signs of odometer tampering — one of the most common scams in used car sales.

💥

Accident & Damage History

Full accident history so you know if the vehicle has been in a collision, how severe it was, and whether structural repairs were made properly — or hidden behind fresh paint.

📄

Title Check

Salvage, rebuilt, lemon law buyback, flood damage — we surface every brand on the title so nothing slips through before you sign.

🏢

Ownership & Use History

How many owners? Rental, fleet, or lease vehicle? We verify the full chain so you know exactly what you're inheriting.

On-Site Mobile Diagnostics

We Go Where
the Vehicle Is

Dealership lot, private driveway, auction yard — we come to you. Our mobile inspection unit arrives with professional-grade diagnostic equipment and runs the full check on-site. No need to move the vehicle, coordinate transport, or wait for a shop appointment that may never come.

We work for the buyer, never the seller. Our inspection is independent, unbiased, and complete. You get the full picture — good, bad, and everything in between — before you ever sign.

Common Questions

FAQs

Do dealerships allow on-site inspections? ▼

Yes. We inspect vehicles at dealerships all the time. Simply call us with the location and salesperson contact details and we'll coordinate everything directly with them.

Can I be present during the inspection? ▼

Absolutely. You're welcome to be there. Our inspectors will walk you through findings in real time and answer your questions on the spot.

What if the vehicle is in another state? ▼

Not a problem. PPI Auto covers all 48 continental states. Out-of-state and remote buyers use us regularly to inspect vehicles before committing to a purchase they can't see in person.

Do you check for smog readiness and cleared codes? ▼

Yes — this is one of our most critical checks. We run a full OBD-II scan including readiness monitor status. If codes were cleared to hide a check engine light before the sale, we catch it every time.

What does the vehicle history report cover? ▼

Our comprehensive report covers accident history, odometer rollback detection, title brands (salvage, rebuilt, flood, lemon law buyback), ownership count, and whether the vehicle was previously used as a rental, fleet, or commercial unit.

Do you inspect commercial trucks and heavy equipment? ▼

Yes. PPI Auto inspects passenger vehicles, pickup trucks, commercial trucks (Class 6–8), and heavy equipment including excavators, bulldozers, cranes, loaders, and more. Call us to discuss your specific unit.
