Captures physical damage, DOT dates, odometer readings/engine hours, and other critical details, such as VIN, vehicle year, make, and model information. Visual Inspection Report Includes annotated photos and comments, allowing technicians to record exactly what they see and protect themselves from claims of vehicle damage or other issues. Vehicle Diagnostic Report Includes relevant diagnostic findings to communicate issues with customers and maintain historical records of the vehicle’s condition when diagnostics were performed.
