What Is a Digital Vehicle Inspection?
A Digital Vehicle Inspection is a detailed visual report of your vehicle’s condition. During the inspection, our technicians document relevant findings with photos and notes, then share the information with you in a clear, easy-to-review format.
Instead of relying only on a verbal explanation, you can see the condition of the part and understand why we may recommend a repair or maintenance service. Digital inspection reports commonly use photos, notes, and prioritized recommendations to help vehicle owners understand issues and make informed decisions.
How it works
A Clear, Simple Process
We Inspect Your Vehicle
Our technician performs a visual inspection related to your visit and your vehicle’s condition.
We Document What We Find
We take clear photos and add notes when there is something you should see or understand. This helps you see the condition of your vehicle—not just hear about it.
You Review The Report
We walk you through the findings, explain what matters now, and answer your questions in plain language.
You Choose What Happens Next
We explain your options and priorities. You approve any recommended repairs before work moves forward.

What your neighbors say
We're grateful to have over 5,000 positive reviews from the community.
I brought the car in the past for differential oil, spark plugs, air filter, clutch maintenance and brakes. They did a thorough inspection and did the parts that were needed. This is the fourth time I have brought my 2017 WRX in and this time they did coolant exchange and oil change and so far so good!

I have been working on cars my entire life. I rarely have work done by a shop if I can do it myself but this job was out side of what I was comfortable with. Do you know a shop that gives a 3yr / 36,000 mile warranty on the work they do? Does your shop order you an Uber/Lyft to pick you up? Do you want to get a customer for life! Because that is how you get a customer for life! Did we just become best friends! Yep! Thank you Brian, Elaine and Calvin. You are amazing!

OUR STORY
Family owned since 1997
The founder of A+ came to the United States from Turkey and started out as a bicycle mechanic, then spent years as a head technician at a dealership. In 1997, in his mid-40s, he opened A+ Japanese Auto Repair in San Carlos. It was a family affair from the first day.
