FAQ
- What should I check before buying a used car?
- Check the VIN, title, recall status, seller identity, price comps, cold start, test drive behavior, tire wear, leaks, and whether the seller allows an independent inspection.
- When should I buy the full report?
- Buy the report before you leave a deposit or make an offer. It gives the title, market, repair-risk, and negotiation context the checklist cannot verify by itself.
