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.

Horrible experience Horrible experience. Ordered the report on March 28. They claim 1-2 business days for a completed report. It took April 9 before I received my report and I had to call 3-4 times a day the last several days. The report itself is very limited and certainly not worth what I paid for it, especially given the tie I spent and the aggravation.

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.

Hired lemon squad to do an inspection Hired lemon squad to do an inspection. The technician said he scheduled the appoint with the seller at the sellers house. The seller didn’t answer the door so they were trying to charge me a no show fee. After calling them about this it turns out the technician never scheduled the appoint and showed up because he said the seller never answered his phone. I shouldn’t have to pay for a no show fee if there was never an appointment scheduled…. On top of that I called again to see what I should do and the guy (his name was Mark) said well sir it’s your fault because you left the wrong number. I printed to records and it definitely was the correct number. That’s tells me that either the technician called the wrong number or they didn’t call at all. If they do this bad of a job just writing down a phone number and lie about it then I not trust them to inspect a 20k vehicle.

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.
