Garage Software for Vehicle Health Checks & Inspections
GDS vehicle health checks help you capture clearer inspections, communicate issues properly, and get faster approvals without phone tag.
Build consistent checks your whole team can follow, then send them to customers with photos and clear recommendations.

How do Vehicle Health Checks work in GDS?

Create VHC Templates
Build health check templates that match how your workshop works.
Standardise what gets checked, how it’s recorded, and how it’s presented to customers.
That means more consistency across technicians and fewer missed items.

Add Photos and Evidence
Attach images directly to the health check so customers can see the issue, not just read it.
It reduces doubt, speeds up decision-making, and helps protect your team when questions come back later.
Evidence changes the conversation.

Traffic Light Rankings
Use a simple traffic light system to show what’s urgent, what’s advisory, and what’s fine.
Customers understand it quickly, and your recommendations feel clearer and more structured.
Less confusion, fewer objections.

Send Straight to the Customer
Send the VHC report to the customer by text or email.
They can review it on their phone, see the photos, and respond faster.
That reduces delays caused by missed calls and waiting for approvals.

Convert Recommendations Into Work
The VHC keeps a clear record of every approved item, so your team has something solid to work from when updating the jobsheet or raising the invoice.
Nothing gets missed between inspection and repair, and chargeable work doesn’t slip through at invoicing.

Save to Vehicle History
VHC reports are stored in the vehicle history, so you can refer back any time.
Useful for repeat visits, tracking ongoing issues, and showing customers what was advised previously.
It builds trust and improves continuity.

Set Reminders for Follow-Ups
Set reminders for advisory work so you can follow up at the right time, without relying on memory.
It helps you drive repeat business, keep customers safer, and fill the diary with work that would otherwise be forgotten.
A Better Way to Run Inspections
Vehicle health checks in GDS turn inspections into a clear customer experience, not a rushed checklist.
You get better approvals, better job value, and less friction at the front desk.
