Mechanic visits the car
A ChekSure-certified mechanic visits the seller's location and runs the full 120+ point inspection. They take photos of every significant finding — good and bad.
Our analysts review the data
The mechanic's findings are reviewed by our senior analysts. They write the final report, flag any issues, and set the recommendation.
You receive your report
Your full report is delivered within 24 hours via email and WhatsApp — with the BUY, CAUTION, or WALK AWAY recommendation clearly stated at the top. No hiding the truth.
PPI questions
We currently dispatch mechanics in Lagos and Abuja. If the car is in another state, we recommend our Online Vetting service instead. We're expanding to Port Harcourt, Ibadan, and Kano — sign up to be notified.
The seller needs to make the car available. We prefer they're not present so our mechanic can work without pressure. We'll coordinate all scheduling directly once you book.
Walk away. Any legitimate seller will allow an independent inspection. A refusal is a red flag. We'll notify you immediately if access is denied, and you won't be charged.
Yes. You always receive a full report regardless of the outcome. The report details every issue found — which is exactly what you need to either renegotiate the price or walk away.
Absolutely — that's one of the reasons we include a 'Negotiation Points' section in every report. Issues found give you legitimate reasons to push the price down.
Your report is delivered within 24 hours of the physical inspection. If we miss this window for any reason within our control, we'll partially refund the inspection fee.
