Make your car-buying journey smoother with these essential questions.
The vehicle history report acts as a background check for the car. It reveals accidents, repairs, and past ownership—crucial information for making an informed decision.
This is especially helpful when dealing with private sellers. Knowing the seller’s reason for parting with the car can offer clues about potential problems.
Knowing whether the car has been in any accidents can affect its value and condition. Minor accidents should be disclosed for full transparency.
The mileage provides an idea of the car’s wear and tear. Along with its age and maintenance history, it helps you assess its overall condition.
A test drive helps you identify any mechanical or comfort-related issues. Pay attention to how the car handles, brakes, and accelerates during the drive.
Some used cars come with transferable warranties or extended service plans. Knowing this can save you money on repairs in the future.
A pre-purchase inspection by a trusted mechanic can uncover issues that aren't visible to the untrained eye. Most reputable sellers won’t object to this.
A well-maintained car lasts longer. Ask for maintenance records to verify that the car was taken care of properly.
Price negotiations are an expected part of buying a used car. Be ready to discuss the price and any issues you’ve found in order to get the best offer.
Dealerships may include fees like documentation, registration, or delivery charges. Understanding these upfront prevents unexpected costs at closing.
