I come to you
Serving Chattanooga and surrounding areas
You found a car. Private seller, dealership lot, someone you met online.
It looks clean. It drives fine. The seller says there's nothing wrong.
Your car has been recording its history since the day it was built
In modules you can't see, codes you can't read without professional equipment.
A check engine light was on two months ago — it was cleared, not fixed. The airbag system flagged a fault. The transmission stored a shift solenoid code.
None of it visible from the driver's seat.
What I do
I show up where the car is. I connect to it. I scan every module — engine, transmission, ABS, airbag, body, instrument cluster.
I pull every code — active, pending, stored, permanent. The ones currently on, and the ones that were, before someone cleared them.
What you'd know
The real history, buried in the systems:
- Whether the check engine light was cleared recently
- Whether the airbag has ever flagged
- Whether the transmission is storing faults the seller erased
- Whether the ABS module is compromised
The truth — before your money leaves.
What you'd receive
A pre-purchase inspection report. Every system, every finding, every flag — in writing.
Something you hold when you negotiate, or when you walk away.

Compatibility is verified first
This is an electronic inspection, not a mechanical one. I scan every module the vehicle's network contains and report every code I find — including codes that were cleared before you arrived, where the vehicle's stored history makes them visible. How much history a vehicle keeps varies by year, make and model, and this inspection is not a guarantee that the car is fault-free.
Where to go next
I verify compatibility and give you the price before we schedule — if I can't deliver, you don't pay.
The price is flat — one price, confirmed with you before I come out. No travel fee within 10 miles of Chattanooga. Beyond 10 miles, a travel fee applies at $2 per round-trip mile, quoted up front before booking. Anything over 30 miles is outside our service area. Compatibility varies by year, make and model and is verified before any appointment. This is an electronic diagnostics, coding and reset service — not mechanical repair. No dealership or manufacturer affiliation.
