Our Services

We offer an independent quality control inspection to ensure the vehicle is free from defects, damage, or poor workmanship. Our expertise covers new vehicle pre-delivery inspections (PDI) and post-accident repair inspections before taking possession. We also prepare AFCA or VCAT expert reports for complaint cases. Our service is valued by consumers unfamiliar with the automotive industry who seek reliable support to protect their interests. Acting as the “BIG BROTHER” of automotive, we ensure insurance companies, panel beaters, and dealerships uphold their obligations, safeguard your quality and warranty rights and enforce Australian Consumer Law, Consumer Guarantee, Insurance Code of Conduct provisions. Avoid relying on assumptions during vehicle handovers and maintain a realistic perspective. Mistakes, damage, and human errors are inevitable. Additionally, deliberate actions including unlawful decisions, concealing damage through industry tactics, turning a blind eye to known defects, or intentionally withholding information about vehicle condition can occur with both new and repaired vehicles. Stay vigilant and prioritise thorough inspection to protect your interests. Once you have been notified that your vehicle is ready for collection or given an approximate date, contact us to schedule your booking. You have the legal right to thoroughly inspect your vehicle before accepting and taking possession, so never feel pressured to hurry or expedite the process. We place the consumer in a position of power!

New Vehicle Pre-Delivery Inspections (PDI)

Purchasing a new vehicle is a significant investment, yet undisclosed transit or yard damage and repairs remain widespread. Additionally,factory paint defects are often repaired by local panel shops before the car is sold as new. Under Australian Consumer Law, consumers are protected by guarantees ensuring goods are of acceptable quality. Failure to disclose such defects may entitle buyers to compensation or remedies, emphasising the importance of transparency in vehicle sales.
Our service yields 10 possible inspection outcomes with new dealer vehicles.

Post Accident Repair Inspections

  • Our post-accident repair inspections maintain a neutral stance, we approach each vehicle with optimism that repairs will meet the highest standards. This approach creates a welcoming environment for repairer and the consumer. However, we remain vigilant in uncovering any underlying issues that may reveal deeper problems such as systemic negligence or quality control issues. We provide you with transparent advise to accept or reject the repair. When consumers engage our business, there is an immediate and noticeable improvement in the attitude and service quality from insurers and repairers.
