Findings

Needs RepairFront brake pads
Observation

Front brake pads measured at approximately 2mm remaining, below manufacturer minimum.

Why it matters

Reduced stopping performance; service is due soon regardless of purchase decision.

Estimated local repair range

$420 – $540

Inspector recommendation

Recommend brake service before or shortly after purchase.

Attention SoonRear tires
Observation

Rear tires measure approximately 4/32" tread depth with uneven wear across the tread face.

Why it matters

Reduced remaining tread life and possible alignment or suspension concern.

Estimated local repair range

$500 – $800

Inspector recommendation

Plan replacement and an alignment evaluation in the near term.

Attention SoonBattery
Observation

Battery load test indicates reduced capacity relative to rated performance.

Why it matters

Higher risk of a no-start condition, particularly in cold weather.

Estimated local repair range

$180 – $240

Inspector recommendation

Plan battery replacement within the next few months.

Attention SoonDiagnostic: Code P0456 — small EVAP leak
Observation

One stored diagnostic code retrieved. Likely gas cap or vent valve; not a drivability concern.

Why it matters

Can trigger a check-engine light and may affect emissions testing if unresolved.

Estimated local repair range

$60 – $280

Inspector recommendation

Diagnostic follow-up recommended before the next emissions cycle.

Attention SoonPassenger-side rear door panel
Observation

Paint thickness reading on this panel differs from surrounding factory readings.

Why it matters

May indicate previous repair or repainting — not necessarily a safety or mechanical concern.

Inspector recommendation

Ask the seller about prior repair history for this panel.
