The Automobile Association (AA) has launched a service to give South Africans credible information on pre-owned vehicles before purchase.

This will be done through independent vehicle dealerships and AA Approved workshops across the country, the association said.

Through the service, the AA said that dealerships can offer an AA 125-point inspection of vehicles, providing a comprehensive report on the vehicle to prospective buyers. Consumers across South Africa will be able to access this service at all dealerships that display the AA Certified Pre-Owned branding.
