I paid this Chris $350 to inspect a rebuilt vehicle. I told him my primary concerns were that it would rev to redline and that there were no strange noises.
Instead of doing a normal vehicle inspection, Chris took this as an opportunity to do the bare minimum and only run some codes and check that the engine could redline on a short test drive.
He didn't take any pictures, claiming it was because I told him I already had photos of the car. It took him a week to send me a report, which turned out to be just a list of codes he pulled using his OBD scanner. Additionally, he failed to notice the uneven body panel gaps, even though I had informed him the car was rebuilt.
When I confronted him about the panel gaps, he said you should expect that because the car is rebuilt, this is not true, if someone is told a car is rebuilt they should specifically look for shoddy worksmanship such as panel gaps performed during repair.
Chris did look at tires and check dates on those and also mentioned that there was an intermittent check engine light, but didn't bother to mention that an entire piece of carbon fiber was missing from the car.
When I received the car I was surprised to see that not only was it not super clean as he had said but it had major body work and panel gaps from poor repairs and an entire missing piece of carbon fiber from the car.
The entire point of hiring an independent inspector is that they point easily noticeable things that are wrong with the car, Chris didn't do this and did the bare minimum and for that reason 1 star.
I could have done a much better job myself, shame on you Chris.
Edit: Uploaded a picture of the missing piece that Chris could not be bothered take a picture of.
I will remove this review if Chris refunds me.
