Multi-Point Inspections Explained

Multi-point inspections are often described as health checkups for vehicles, promoting optimal vehicle performance by detecting and repairing essential components sooner instead of later when reliability, comfort, and safety are compromised. Certified technicians perform Multi-point inspections using the genuine Honda inspection form, ensuring thorough and accurate results. We recommend getting proactive Multi-point inspections every six months to optimize maintenance, but some drivers need an impromptu inspection to diagnose performance issues such as reduced fuel economy.

What Does a Multi-Point Inspection Include?

Multi-point inspections check all primary systems and essential components. Customers receive the graded Multi-point inspection form in conclusion and discuss the results with a knowledgeable service advisor. We can also schedule repairs if needed. Here is a general overview of what we inspect:

• Primary Systems – We check all primary systems from bumper to bumper, including the transmission, engine, exhaust, steering, suspension, HVAC, drive belts, engine cooling, and more.
• Brakes – A special section is dedicated to the braking system with pad measurements recorded. Be sure to replace brake pads when they measure no less than 3 to 4 millimeters.
• Tires – We inspect all tires thoroughly, including an irregular tread wear assessment, tread depth measurement, and inflation check.
• Battery – The battery receives an inspection with diagnostic testing. We check old batteries for physical deformities, such as case bloating, corrosion, or leaking fluid. We also measure the cold-cranking amps and reserve capacity.
• Filters – We check the cabin and engine air filters for clogging.
• Fluids – We inspect all fluid levels and conditions, topping them off as needed to full capacity, including motor oil, brake, transmission, power steering, and coolant/antifreeze.
• Safety Controls & Lights – We ensure interior controls and exterior lights function properly, including turn signals, brake lights, head and tail lights, fog lights, and high beams.
