Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about full vehicle check-ups at A Plus Auto Shop.

How often should I get a full vehicle check-up?

We recommend a comprehensive check-up at least once a year or every 12,000 miles, whichever comes first. If your car is older or has high mileage, twice-yearly check-ups can help catch issues early.

What's the difference between a safety inspection and a full check-up?

A safety inspection focuses on systems critical to safe driving — brakes, tires, lights, steering. A full check-up covers everything in a safety inspection plus engine health, transmission, cooling system, AC, and preventive maintenance items.

How long does a full vehicle check-up take?

A comprehensive bumper-to-bumper check-up typically takes 1 to 2 hours, depending on the vehicle and any issues discovered. We'll provide a time estimate when you drop off your car.

Do you provide a written report?

Yes. Every full vehicle check-up includes a written condition report that details our findings for each system inspected, rated by urgency. You can use this report to plan and budget your vehicle maintenance.
