Our Services
- Safety inspection, checkup and repair
- Recently, advances in technology have made cars less prone to breakage, and more people are using cars for 5 and 10 years. However, failure of appropriate maintenance may result in an unexpected breakdown which may lead to serious accidents. In order to use a car longer, maintenance and inspection are essential.
- Car body work and paint
- Specialized technicians handle car body work and painting. Please leave your car with accident repairs for us to handle. You can consult us about car body work and get a quotation for the cost.
- Purchase and sale
- “I cannot accept the trade-in price of my old model car,” “I want to sell my car for the highest possible price!”
-- We love to hear such voices from you. We also search for new domestic cars and used cars of choice for customers who are considering purchasing. Please remember Pitatto Car Inspection Center for both occasions of purchase and selling.

We will check if the condition of the car conforms to the inspection safety standards of the vehicle inspection and whether there is part of the failure that could be dangerous. Mechanics with national qualifications, disassemble your car quickly and inspect it based on inspection items prescribed by the law.
Also, if there is a part that needs replacement or repair, we will check with you before start working.
We will propose a separate quotation if additional maintenance is required.
*Safety inspection fee doesn’t include a headlight adjustment fee, side slip adjustment fee, cost for incidental work, replacement parts, and oil/grease.

Weight tax as a statutory fee
[Note] The above weight tax is the amount applied for cars less than 13 year old from the initial registration.

Research result
There are many chargeable items at the new car dealer and it turned out to be very expensive. Although the other two companies charge both high and low prices depending on the items, total safety inspection costs were almost the same. However, a car inspection with cheaper basic labor cost sets the additional work fee at a higher price to balance out. And if maintenance is carried out for you to drive safely, the overall safety inspection fee will be high as a result.
We put interaction with our customers as the top priority and make proposals adjusted to the customers’ budget with techniques and knowledge equivalent to those of dealers.
