1. Professional Pre-Purchase Inspections
Buying a used vehicle is an investment fraught with hidden risk. Don’t buy a project disguised as a deal. Our Pre-Purchase Inspection (PPI) is an unbiased, thorough forensic examination conducted by our veteran technicians.
- Our Inspection Process: We go far beyond a test drive.
- Comprehensive Mechanical Evaluation: Engine compression/leak-down tests, fluid analysis, drivetrain assessment, brake system check, and suspension inspection.
- Advanced Diagnostic Scan: Plugging into the vehicle’s computer to uncover hidden fault codes and monitor sensor data.
- Structural & Frame Inspection: Checking for evidence of previous collision damage, improper repairs, or critical corrosion.
- Test Ride & Operational Review: We assess real-world performance, handling, and function of all accessories.
- The Misfit Motors PPI Advantage: You receive a detailed, written report with photographs and a professional assessment of the vehicle’s fair market value. We arm you with the knowledge to negotiate confidently or walk away.
2. Comprehensive Winterization & Storage
Michigan winters demand respect. Improper storage can lead to costly damage from stale fuel and corrosion. Our veteran-methodical winterization service ensures your machine sleeps soundly and awakens easily.
- Our Full Winterization Protocol:
- Fuel System Stabilization: Draining or treating fuel with premium stabilizer to prevent varnish formation.
- Engine Preservation: Oil changes and cylinder fogging to prevent internal rust.
- Battery Care: Disconnecting and storing on a maintainer or installing onboard tenders.
- Moisture & Corrosion Defense: Treating unpainted metals and cables for dry storage.
- Tire & Suspension Care: Proper inflation and stand placement to prevent flat spots.
- Spring Re-Awakening Service: A complementary service that reverses the process with a safety check and test run to ensure your season starts flawlessly.
3. Professional Tire Service & Wheel Care
The only point of contact between your machine and the world deserves expert handling. We provide full tire services for powersports, light trucks, and passenger vehicles.
