What an inspector checks on a used Ford

Every inspection covers the same core areas regardless of make: exterior and body condition including evidence of prior repair, under-hood systems and fluid condition, tires and brake measurement, undercarriage and structural inspection where clearance allows, interior electronics and climate, and a road test with an OBD-II scan. The model pages above add what the recall record says is worth extra attention on that specific vehicle.
