Car inspection Edmonton

Purchasing a used car can come with its set of challenges, primarily when undiagnosed issues are transferred to the new owner. Here are some of the most common problems encountered in used cars:

• Engine Complications: Issues such as oil leaks, timing belt wear, and deteriorating gaskets can be costly to repair.
• Transmission Failures: Slipping, jerking, or failure to engage gears can indicate significant transmission problems.
• Cooling System Problems: These can lead to engine overheating and include faulty thermostats, leaking radiators, and compromised water pumps.
• Electrical Issues: These range from faulty sensors, issues with warning lights and other lights, malfunctioning power windows to problems with the car’s onboard computer systems.
• Battery Deterioration: Used cars often come with aged batteries that may need replacement sooner than expected.
• Brake System Faults: Worn brake pads, damaged rotors, or issues with the brake hydraulic system are common and critical for safety.
• Suspension Issues: Worn struts, shocks, and bushings can affect the car’s handling and comfort.
• Exhaust System Problems: Leaks or blockages in the exhaust system can lead to decreased performance and increased emissions.
