I use Auto Hans exclusively for work on my S550. They have been my choice for the last 3 S classes and have only good things to say about their work.

Beware of Auto Hans Inc.



An inspection of the 1999 BMW Z3 I purchased from Auto Hans Inc.



1. Discount Tire determined that the two front tires have flat spots with 3/32” of tread removed; both front wheels are bent and require replacement…based on the technician’s opinion, this is evidence of a severe braking event and collision.

2. Front clip of car has been re-sprayed and there is a slight ripple in the hood denoting stress from a collision. The center air duct is missing and the right/left duct brackets are damaged.

3. Secondary air pump (smog device) vacuum hose was broken yet Auto Hans gave the car a passing grade and an Inspection sticker...The Department of public safety were notified and thy are currently investigating.

4. Engine warning light came on two days after purchase, repeated attempts to clear light failed.

5. Multiple fault codes are present. Emissions,

6. The ABS, Traction Control, and Cruse control lights do not illuminate when ignition key is turned to on position.

7. Various interior dash components including those that house the instrument cluster are severely damaged and beyond repair. It appears someone hastily removed these parts to gain access to the instrument cluster.

8. An inspection of the instrument cluster indicates someone tampered with it and eliminated the ABS, Traction Control and other critical lights that indicate inoperative safety systems…



These inspections were performed by certified BMW Technicians at their shop with the proper BMW diagnostic computer.



Here are their conclusions.

1. The car sustained a frontal impact which damaged the car.

2. Someone deliberately disabled onboard warning lights to hide inoperable safety systems e.g. the ABS-Traction control module (which is not working) and other systems needed for driver safety.

3. An inspection of the car by a qualified repair station would have detected numerous red flags which should have been addressed prior to placing the car for sale.



Note: The car was advertised to be in great shape and was inspected by seller.
