Body components (structural/reinforcing/panels) have accident-type damage; passive safety devices are defective; vehicle performance (including three-electric system) is degraded or remains performance-limited after repairs.
Accident inspection: main structure damaged, reinforcing parts damaged, panels damaged, hinges normal; engine bay: key mechanical components normal; exterior: 4 areas of sheet metal repair; interior: most features normal, airbag normal, seatbelts normal, dashboard normal, instrument readings normal, lighting system normal; start-up test: main components normal; onboard tools: none.
Yes. We will apply to customs or the trade promotion agency for a specific version of the certificate of origin (such as ASEAN Form E, China-ASEAN FTA certificate, etc.) to assist you in legally enjoying significant or even zero tariff treatment at the destination port.
Our foreign versions of the report standardize terminology and include illustrations. For example, instead of just writing "control arm failure," we specify "Lower Control Arm Bushing Torn" to help your local technicians identify the issue directly.
Request a live video call during the test drive rather than a pre-recorded one. Cold start first: listen for rattling or metal scraping in the first seconds — possible timing chain or hydraulic lifter issues. During acceleration, a whining from the gearbox area can mean bearing wear; hesitation or jerking in an automatic suggests transmission problems. Braking: the pedal should feel firm, not spongy, and the car must not pull to one side. Turn the wheel fully in both directions and listen for clicking — a classic CV joint fault. Insist on a highway segment too: vibrations above 100 km/h often point to unbalanced wheels or bent rims. Ask the driver to film the dashboard throughout — warning lights that flicker on briefly are still faults that OBD will record.
