The Leading Auto Repair Shop In San Leandro
Vehicle Pre Purchase Inspection in San Leandro

Welcome to Doral’s Auto Repair in San Leandro. We are the premier San Leandro auto repair shop. We offer pre-purchase vehicle inspections among the broad range of auto repair services we perform every day.


There’s no need for you to rely on luck when purchasing a used car. You need to know the history of the vehicle before you make that big decision. The majority of dealerships around the country offer services such as a Carfax report in order to assist in shining some light on the history of the vehicle. Bear in mind that even though these pre-purchase reports can tell you the history of the vehicle, they cannot tell you for certain whether the vehicle is safe to drive or not.

It is extremely important for vehicles to have the proper preventative maintenance. A pre-purchase inspection can give you an experts opinion on the vehicles systems and parts. For example, inspecting a used vehicles tires, engine, hoses, belts and other important engine components can determine the difference between asking the price of the car, or the never-ending investment in repair bills.

Our shop has a longstanding reputation with our customers in the area. We pride ourselves on superior customer service and provide top-quality auto repair, without trying to sell you unnecessary repairs or services.

You can put your trust in our auto repair facility to provide you with a comprehensive review of your potential vehicle. Before you decide to buy a used car, let our team of expert technicians provide you with a complete and affordable pre-purchase inspection!

Buying a used car is often a wise financial decision – if you hire professionals to support you. Doral’s Auto Repair offers pre-purchase inspections for any vehicle you may wish to buy – whether it’s a passenger car, an SUV, a hybrid, or a pickup truck. For a small price you can get nationally ASE certified technicians to inspect the vehicle you are buying.



There are risks associated with buying a used car, and unless you are an experienced auto repair technician with a lift and thousands of dollars of equipment, you cannot properly evaluate those risks.


That’s why Doral’s offers professional pre purchase vehicle inspections. During the inspection, we go over the entire vehicle, including:

  • Suspension
  • Brakes
  • Tires
  • Belts and hoses
  • Leaks – oil, transmission fluid, or coolant leaks
  • Cooling system and radiator
  • Electrical system
  • Check the high voltage battery (hybrid vehicles)
  • Check quality of the fluids
  • Test drive
  • We research the database that holds repair history of millions of cars


This comprehensive digital vehicle inspection, performed by our nationally ASE certified technicians, provides you with an electronic copy of the results, including pictures, that you can use when negotiating the price, and to give you the peace of mind that comes from knowing that your vehicle has been looked over by professionals, and that you have the information needed to make the correct buying decision.


We highly recommend using an independent third party to do an inspection before you purchase the vehicle. We see too many used vehicles purchased without an inspection that end up needing thousands of dollars in repairs. A pre-purchase inspection would have prevented the expense and the stress.

So when you are contemplating buying a used car, bring it to Doral’s Auto Repair in San Leandro for a thorough pre purchase inspection. We offer convenient online appointments or if you prefer, simply call us at the shop.
