When you just want to make sure the various parts and systems in your vehicle are working properly, you can get a multi-point vehicle inspection. A skilled service technician will take a look at your vehicle and examine specific parts to ensure they are functioning as they should. If you are wondering what exactly is included with a Toyota multi-point vehicle inspection, you’re in the right place.
Exterior
The exterior inspection includes all elements on the outside of your car, including exterior lights, the windshield, windshield wipers, horn operation, and fuel tank cap.
Interior
The interior inspection takes a look at interior lighting, the cabin air filter, parking brake, and driver’s floor mat.
Under the hood
Under the hood, the examination includes the air filter, battery condition, cooling system, hoses, drive belts, and radiator core, if so equipped.
Fluids
The fluid inspection takes a look at all potential vehicle fluids, such as windshield washer, coolant, power steering, brake reservoir, clutch reservoir, transmission, differential, and transfer case.
Under the vehicle
The under vehicle inspection looks for damage or leaks in the following elements: propeller, axle hub, steering linkage, suspension, exhaust system, and fuel lines and connections.
Tires
The tire examination takes a look at the pressure, tread depth, damage, rims, wheels, and lug nuts of all four tires and the spare, when applicable.
Brakes
The brake inspection includes the condition of the brake lining, brake lines, hoses, parking brake cable, discs, drums, calipers, and wheel cylinders.
Most of these elements included with a Toyota multi-point vehicle inspection are rated in three different categories: checked and OK at this time, may require future attention, and requires immediate attention. Car owners can use the information found in a multi-point inspection to take the next step and have certain elements fixed, if necessary.
