This is by far the best car inspection place in Charlotte that I've ever been to! If your car did not pass an inspection, which was my case with my check engine light popping up, Anthony will tell you everything that you need to have done to your car in order for it to pass the inspection. Anthony is also the most respectful and friendliest young man that you could ever encounter! And you cannot beat the price for your inspection at this location! I highly recommend coming to this location for your car inspection! You will not be disappointed! read more

I was in and out in 10 minutes. Coming from a state that doesn't require an inspection anymore he gave me all the info I'd need at the tag agency. Friendly young man with impeccable manners. Painless and affordable experience. read more

He's always been quick, good natured and lets me know if I should keep an eye on something with my car. Best inspection place I've ever been too. read more

They will fail you and fee you for having tint on windows. Never happened before at any dealership.

If I could give it 0 stars, I would but that's not an option. They'll make up any excuse to fail your inspection if the guy is in a bad mood or just doesn't like you. The place is filthy, too. Avoid coming here! read more

Really quick service. Friendly employees. Fair pricing, I have paid anywhere from 15-30$ depending on if I needed a safety check, emissions check, or a combination of the two. Accepts credit cards. They make this is pleasant of an experience as it could be. read more

Brought my car into Auto Inspector for an NC State Inspection today. The location is ideal for us on the east side, and Sarge was very friendly and helpful. The waiting room is nothing to write home about, but I was in and out quickly enough that I didn't care! Definitely will be bringing my car here again next year for my annual inspection. Thank you, Sarge! read more

Quick and easy! No wait time. Decent customer service. The mornings are the best time to go

Car inspections? Yes it's that time of year again when you need to find a place to get it done. I've been here for a few years now and let me tell you, it has always been less than 10 minutes. They get the job done and let you continue your busy life. PERFECT. The location's inside is not the most up to date, but hey you won't be in there too long. Try this place out if you need your inspection done read more

I've been going here for well over ten years. I live in the neighborhood and it's so convenient. It's always been great. But today was different. A man asked me to come into the shop to show me a few things. He said the headlight that is loose but secure would not pass so I asked him why it has passed inspection every time before. He asked who did inspection and I answered "Here" then he said in a very condensing tone that I wasn't understanding him and asked again who. I said here at this shop. He said no, who inspected it? He wanted somebody's name and I never knew the name of any employee at this business and it doesn't matter. I was getting annoyed and suggested he move on with the inspection and he got very angry and yelled at me that he was going to pass the car but now wasn't going to. Another man came over to intervene and the drama continued so i went back into waiting room and asked for someone calm to come talk to me. The other man came in and said they called the boss man and they asked me to take my car somewhere else. I quietly left. Will never go to this business again read more

This was my first inspection in NC with a new license and new car. I didn't have all of the right paperwork and was stressing about it, but they were able to look some things up and help me anyway. It was quick and everyone there was incredibly helpful. read more

I've taken my vehicles to this location for many years, and they've always been excellent and professional. This time, although the inspection itself was as good as always, the woman behind the counter was incredibly rude. She needs to change professions, and they've lost my business for good. read more

I have been going here for years. Even when it seems like they are super busy you will be in and out of there in less than a hour.

Fantastic experience! Quick, easy, and very kind people. Highly recommended and will be the only place I go for my inspection!

It was close, convenient, fast, friendly. Every thing I want when getting my car inspected.

The service and people at this location are great! I recently went in to get my car inspected and needed a brake light. They didn't have it in stock but I walked across the parking lot to get one from auto parts store. Steve installed them both (I decided to get brighter ones so both needed changed)at no charge. I was happy to pay for it though-the people and service is always great here. read more

This is the quickest place in Charlotte to get an inspection; no doubt about it. The waiting-room is small and suffocating, but that didn't sway me away, because I was only there for about ten minutes. The employees here are lickity-split mechanics that know how to get a car in and out. When I was there I saw about five different guys checking different things on my Buick for the inspection. The lady behind the counter was a sweetheart, she seems like she has been working there for a while and she doesn't mind if you interrupt her from her newspaper (she loves company). I have never given a tip before for an inspection, but I had to hook these guys up for such a quick job. read more

Service rendered: NC State Inspection Price $30. They take debit, credit, or cash. I would be shocked if they don't have the fastest inspection in town. Last year's inspection here took less than 15 minutes, from start to finish. But that was with one person manning the shop. Yesterday, it took less than 10 minutes. I really should have timed it. By the time I was settling in they were done. There were 3 friendly guys working and all were professional and helpful. They very thoughtfully offered to scrape my expired inspection sticker from my windshield too. The reason I gave 4 instead of 5 stars, is because this is a clean, zero frills establishment. It's not the most comfortable waiting area, but when your customers only sit for 10 minutes it really isn't necessary. If you are one to turn your nose up to dingy chairs and no bathroom, go elsewhere. They do have a water cooler and local papers to read to sustain you. It really isn't bad if you aren't bothered by trivial aesthetics. Easy entrance and exit from Central Ave. This is NOT a place to drop off your car to pick up later. It is their posted policy to stay with your vehicle. read more

Excellent quick service. Went in on 12/31/14 was told my car wasn't going to pass because of horn before he even pulled it into garage. He explained what I needed to do to get it up to par, so I went next door to Auto-Zone, had the part put in he inspected and everything was great. I saw someone posted they only gave 4 stars because it's no frills; it's not but it is good honest people who know their stuff and do a good job. I'll take that over frills ANYDAY! Highly recommend! read more

This is a no-frills, in-out auto inspection service. The building is run-down and the waiting room is not very nice -- fortunately, you don't have to spend much time there. Since all they do is inspections, I'm usually there for 10 minutes. They also inspect motorcycles - which is not true for all inspection locations. read more

Quick efficient service! In and out in 10 minutes, no frills like stated in other reviews but who needs that?!

Speedy service! Chatty Cathy at the front desk was entertainment while I waited!! I even got a $17 discount!!! I go back every year!!

Quick, friendly service turns the annual inspection chore into a delight. I just came to know Ron and Kathy as a new neighboring small business owner and I am impressed at their service. I was in and out in 10 minutes. The parking area is a large open lot next to Briar Creek and having been there for the last month I can add that it is quite safe. read more

Today, I decided to try this Auto Inspector instead of driving to Matthews for my annual car inspection and I am certainly glad I did. I arrived at approximately 2:45 pm and was immediately greeted and asked to have a seat while my car was inspected. At 2:51 pm, the desk attendant called my name and told me all was good. I paid him and was on my way. It was quick, easy and painless. I'm glad I tried this new place. It saved me some time, gasoline and wear and tear on my nerves. I would definitely recommend this business. read more

The best place in Charlotte for inspections. I was in and out in less than 15 minutes. This place only does inspections, so you won't have to worry about needless repair suggestions. They were able to inspect my car immediately after lunch. read more

Took my motorcycle there yesterday and they refused to inspect it. Stated I had a straight exhaust because my bike was loud. I have a set of pipes commercially sold and have never altered them, D & D Stubby Cats. Even called Tech support of the company and put them on the phone. Inspector refused the speak with them. If I was guilty I would not write this and their refusal to inspect a bike because they felt it was too loud was out of order. I have used them in the past, but I will not be going to them again. read more
