How to Know When You Shouldn't Buy a Used Car: 3 Dangerous Signs - Don't Ignore Them
08.11.2024 13:55
Let's imagine a situation: you have chosen a car on the secondary car market that seems pretty good at first glance.
There seem to be no serious problems with the powertrain, suspension or other important components.
And the price is not very high.
It would seem that in this situation it is worth buying a vehicle.
However, there are 3 “harmless” signs that indicate the need to refuse to purchase the offered car.
High mileage
Don't buy a car with very high mileage.
This indicator may indicate wear and tear of many components of the vehicle.
Even if there are no problems now, it is possible that they will make themselves known in the future. Repair work will be very expensive.
Presence of rust
Has the corrosion process started on the body? This is a reason to start looking for another car. After all, the proposed vehicle was poorly maintained.
And don't be fooled by the fact that only a small area is covered with rust. It is possible that at some point this "territory" will begin to increase very quickly.
Suspiciously low price
No problems were found with the used car? And the car is very cheap?
This is a reason to think. It is possible that there are serious defects that you have not yet learned about.
However, it is possible that the seller is not hiding anything, but simply wants to sell the car as soon as possible for some personal reasons.
And yet, a low price is a reason to carefully inspect the car again and check all its components.
