Independent 3rd Party Post Sale Auto Inspection Services by Test Drive Technologies for Dealerships

Nov. 19, 2012 - PRLog -- Independent used car dealers are faced with many of the same problems that used car buyers are faced with but on a greater scale... Auto dealers are purchasing vehicles sight unseen from 1000's of miles away through online auctions and those dealers that do visit the auction only have minutes to quickly check over a vehicle before they decide to place their bids.  

"Test Drive Technologies has long been strictly only available to the consumer. We have recently been called by several dealerships outside of the St Louis area that are buying vehicles from auctions such as Adessa, Manheim and the other independent auto auctions in the St Louis Metro Area because they are worried that the vehicle they purchase will have non-documented issues when it arrives 1000's of miles away", says Steven Paul, President of Test Drive Technologies Auto Inspection Services. "There is a long extensive process for dealerships to arbitrate a vehicle after the auction sale. Many auto auctions require sales to be arbitrated within 14 days of the sale date which sometimes isn't even enough time for the vehicle to be transported across country. We our extending our auto inspection services to auto dealerships as a two-fold effort to help consumers purchase better cars. Our thought was why not discover the vehicles with problems before they are even placed up for sale? This way the consumer feels confident that the vehicle has been purchased by the dealership with knowledge of its true condition"

Each vehicle inspection from Test Drive Technologies comes with a complete inspection of the body, interior, power options, frame, suspension, brakes, steering, engine, transmission and driveline.  Also included with each pre-sale and post sale inspection is a oil analysis testing which TDT takes samples of the engine and transmission and they are sent off to Titan Certified for independent analysis which includes a "guarantee of performance" against any fluid lubricated part failure on the internals of the engine & transmission... TDT also can sample and test generator units for motorhomes and RV's which can cost 1000's to test.

"We have teamed up with some great people in the automotive industry such as AutoMobile Technologies, Titan Certified and PaySafe to bring consumers and dealerships the most bang for the buck with each auto inspection. We feel confident with the partnerships we have created and our detailed auto inspection platform it is a win / win for both consumers and dealerships nationwide."
