INSPECTIONS SERVICE
Inspection Services
Time and use can cause regular wear and tear on even the sturdiest vehicles. At Bowest Motors, located in the heart of Bowness, Calgary, we understand the importance of regular automotive maintenance and repair. Our thorough, comprehensive inspections prioritize the safety of you and your passengers, ensuring your vehicle remains in optimal condition.
Regular vehicle inspections are crucial for maintaining your car's health and safety. Routine inspections can identify potential safety issues before they become major problems. From brake repair to checking the integrity of your tires, our inspections help prevent accidents and ensure your vehicle is safe to drive. Inspections also allow us to catch small problems early, saving you from costly repairs down the road. Whether it’s a minor oil change or a more complex mechanical issue, addressing it early can extend the life of your vehicle. Additionally, regular inspections ensure that your vehicle meets all necessary safety and emissions standards, which is especially important if you're purchasing a vehicle registered outside of Alberta. Keeping your car in top condition with regular inspections can also enhance its resale value, as prospective buyers are more likely to purchase a vehicle with a documented history of regular maintenance and inspections.

Pre-Purchase Inspection
With all of the costs associated, owning a vehicle is a big commitment. Ensuring the vehicle you are considering is safe and ready for use is just as important to us as it is to you. In our pre-purchase inspection, we will complete all of the same assessments as our general inspection to help you make the right choice in buying a vehicle.

Out of Province Inspections
If you’ve recently moved to Alberta or purchased a vehicle from another province, you’ll need an Out of Province Vehicle Inspection before you can register your car. At Bowest Motors, our certified technicians perform comprehensive inspections to ensure your vehicle meets Alberta’s safety and mechanical standards. You MUST visit the registry to complete the necessary paperwork; without appropriate paperwork in hand at the time of your appointment, we cannot complete the inspection.
