The Inspection

A word from Omari

“Poor bodywork sticks out like a sore thumb to a sharp eye.

Before Fort Lauderdale Auto Sales, Omari spent years as an ASE-certified mechanic running Front Line Auto — a repair shop in Oakland Park he's operated since 2001. He knows every trick a dealership uses to hide a tired car, and he knows exactly what makes a used car genuinely good.

When he opened FLAS in 2013, he made one rule: every car gets the inspection he'd want before selling it to his own family. That rule hasn't changed.

Trusted service partner

Front Line Auto is the shop behind every FLAS promise.

Not a random third-party shop. The same team that certifies the car stands behind it after the sale.

Every FLAS vehicle goes through Front Line Auto before it ever gets a price tag. That means inspection, road-test, and the repair judgment all happen in the same system.

If something covered by the 90-day warranty comes up, the buyer is not chasing an outside warranty company. Front Line Auto is the trusted service partner behind the inventory and the support after delivery.

Ask about Easy Care annual maintenance or the White Glove Tow Pass at the desk. They are optional ownership programs, separate from your 90-day warranty and credit decision.

The Mechanic-Owner Standard

We inspect what matters, not what looks impressive on a brochure.

Before any car reaches the lot, Omari walks through a 4-point check at the auction. Cars that don't pass don't come home. Every vehicle then goes through a full ASE inspection at Front Line Auto, our Oakland Park repair shop.
