Hasn't adapted to modern times Like others have mentioned, the lack of speed is killing them in a tight market. I ordered my inspection Sunday night, it was performed Wednesday, and I didn't get the report until Saturday night. By which point I'd jumped on another opportunity. I paid $149 for this service 5 years ago and that was good value - it no longer is at the current rate. I'd give the inspection 4 stars, the pictures 1 star (half were very out of focus, all were taken using a potato), and the timing 1 star.

A bunch of liars and no one from the… A bunch of liars and no one from the USA seems to work with this company. They said they would be there for my huge fee (including $45.00 additional long distance fee) on Monday, I was thrilled. I called to verify a few times on Monday because that timing was important to our plane trip tickets to go pick up the car. Then at 2 am on Tuesday morning, news that the inspector left a message with the dealership and never heard back. The dealership scoured all messages and there was not a message. Giving the inspector the benefit of the doubt, I asked Jay the rep what to do. Jay contacted him (the inspector right then at 9 am CT and then at noon CT and couldn't reach him) I asked for the inspector's number, "no, not allowed" even though I PAID over $250 USD and they couldn't reach him. Then Jay suggested that I send an email with my concerns and nobody responded from there either. They don't care about their customers or their staff.

Good report followed by transmission failure I had a Lemon Squad inspector go over a 2005 Maserati Spyder Cambiocorsa I was considering buying. A pretty clean report, including that the transmission was working as expected. Right after I received the car the transmission failed. One wonders whether the inspectors are in cahoots with the car salesmen, considering that they live and work in pretty much the same area. I would be leery of any good Lemon Squad report, since it may now be what it seems.

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.

The investigator did not state that the car was missing seatbelts. The investigator failed to mention that the car was missing seatbelts, and the seller did not disclose this information, either, along with other little details that would have impacted the sale. Consequently, my car did not pass the State of KY inspection because all the necessary safety equipment needed to be fixed. I have decided to never do business with this organization again.
