AutoNinja - the safer vehicle coach

Free monthly car checks

Ten minutes a month. A safer car all year.

AutoNinja walks you round your car one check at a time - tyres, lights, oil, warning lights, glass - with a short film for anything you're not sure about. Tap green or red, get your report by email, and we'll remember your tyre pressures and oil grade for next time.

How it works

Three steps. No jargon.

1

Pop in your details

First name, email and postcode. AutoNinja is funded by local road safety teams, so we check it's available where you live - then it's free.

2

Walk round the car

Seven short steps in the order you'd do them on the driveway. Green tick or red - and every step has a two-minute film if you want to see it done.

3

Get your report

A red tick action list tells you what to do about anything that needs sorting. It lands in your inbox, and we'll nudge you when next month's check is due.

What you'll check

Spot the small stuff before it costs you

The same checks your garage does at a service - done by you, every month, in the time it takes to make a brew. Catch a worn tyre, a blown bulb or low oil early and it's a cheap fix, not a repair bill, points on your licence or a breakdown. You'll need a tyre pressure gauge (or the compressor at a petrol station), a 20p coin for the tread, and a cloth. That's it.

Your car's cheat sheet

Type it in once. We'll remember.

Tyre pressures, oil grade, MOT date, next service - the things you look up every single time. Add them when you add your car and AutoNinja hands them back on every check, counts down to your MOT, and nudges you when a check is due. Walk round the car once a month and you know it's in good shape - not hoping it is.

For road safety teams, fleets and garages

AutoNinja is part of the Vision Zero Toolbox - a shared library of evaluated road safety resources funded by its members. Member areas get AutoNinja for their drivers, printed checklists and posters with their own QR code, and a live dashboard showing what drivers in their area find when they check: which tyres are under-inflated, which lights are out, how many cars are driving round with a warning light on.
