The Importance of Regular Vehicle Inspections in Michigan

Michigan roads are tough on cars — from snow and salt in the winter to potholes in the spring. That’s why regular vehicle inspections are one of the smartest things Metro Detroit drivers can do to protect their investment. At Car Aid Auto Repair, our inspections help catch problems early, saving you money and stress.


🛠️ What We Check During a Vehicle Inspection

  • Brakes & rotors
  • Suspension & steering components
  • Tires & alignment
  • Battery & charging system
  • Fluids & filters
  • Exhaust & emissions
  • Lights & safety systems


⚠️ Why Inspections Matter in Michigan

  • Seasonal stress: Winter salt corrodes brakes and suspension.
  • Potholes: Can cause hidden alignment and tire damage.
  • Extreme temps: Strain batteries, coolant, and belts.


📍 Where to Get an Inspection

Car Aid offers complete multi-point inspections at all 5 Metro Detroit locations: Shelby Township (23 Mile + Van Dyke), Troy, Waterford, and Southfield.
