Lemon Squad

I paid $ 149.95 for the Premium Inspection. For this the inspector, who in ASE like all their inspectors, inspected the car in Salem almost a 90 minute drive for me. He let me know, by special request the condition of the control arm and the underside. He inspected the body, interior, and mechanics. He took about 20 pictures for me. He performed the inspection the next business day and sent me the report (with pictures) that same night. I talked with him and he gave me advice on the repairs, what they might cost, and recommend I ask the seller to reduce the price. After he pointed out the dents, the tread of the three tires, the need for a tune up, and a belt adjustment. I found that the car needed $ 600 – 800 in repairs. I was able to use this information, with report in hand, to talk down the seller $ 800. All in all, spending $ 149.95 actually saved me $ 650. Needless to say I am pretty happy. Is this a legitimate review because I gave a 5 out of 5, the best rating, on Unilocal?Well, I work for a nonprofit in Portland and last I wasn’t employed by a national car inspection agency, so there you go.
