Better than expected I had my reservations booking a pre purchase inspection by the lemon squad after reading some of the reviews, I watched a video on YouTube and sold me on them, it wasn’t a stellar video but it showed me they were what I was looking for. Although the inspection took longer for me to get it than advertised, when I finally got it I was pleased, it was detailed the inspector took the time to address my concerns and went above and beyond, by the time I decided to buy the car I felt like I had seen it myself looking over the report, my experience was great with the lemon squad.

Lemon Squad is garbage Corey was not ASE certified He didn't know what clear bra was He didn't notice the steeda IRS no hop and did not know it was suspension modification He started my manual car in gear and lurched forward almost hitting the van in front of me I just spent $10k fixing all oil leaks and he put on the report it has an oil leak He said rust on a car that has never left Phoenix AZ I paid $200 for this garbage service, this is seriously wrong Google "corey lemon squad" Watch video starting at 33 seconds

They Got The Job Done Alright…I have to give Lemon Squad 4 out of 5 stars. The only reason is because I had difficulty contacting them, as all of the different numbers for them lead to the same automated voicemail, which freaked me out, because there no option to just speak to a live person. I had to select to “start a new inspection” just to check on my current inspection. They ended inspecting the vehicle on the day they said they would, but I had put $1000 deposit down to hold a vehicle, and was needing the report. They put a rush order in for me, and I was able to get the vehicle. They are a bit overpriced, as I paid $149 to another company to inspect a vehicle in Florida. I would shop around for a more “1 on 1” mobile inspector vs a conglomerate…but if they are all that’s available, they get the job done.

Buyers and Sellers That Depend on Lemon Squad Inspections Should Be Cautious As a seller I wanted to provide some confidence to any potential buyers. I don't feel that I got what I paid for. *Inspector canceled several appointments, before finally showing up late to the third appointment. This caused major inconvenience for me. *Inspector showed up largely un-prepared, and winged the inspection from memory, not from a list. *Inspector 100% relied on me to identify issues. He should have focused more on inspection, and less on interviewing. *Inspector did not actually do the test drive. He did a ride along, making me question the quality of the road test. *Inspector did not want to take car on highway to verify functionality at highway speeds. *Inspector spent most of his ride-along time surfing on his phone for hunting photos. *Final inspection report was dictated using voice to text. For $330, I would expect the inspector to proof read his report, since I’m showing it to prospective buyers. *Cost of inspection is excessive, compared to what a dealership would offer – which would include putting car on a lift, and providing an estimate for repairs.

I am satisfied with the report It took well over a week for me to get my report. Actually it took about 10 days which is not what their website says. However, now that I actually have my report I can say that it is of a good quality and I appreciate that I used lemon squad to check out the car I’m purchasing on the East Coast and I actually live on the West Coast.
