Make your car-buying journey smoother with these essential questions.
Think of the vehicle history report as the car’s resume. It highlights any past accidents, repairs, and previous owners. A clear history boosts confidence, while warning signs can help you avoid unwanted surprises.
This question is particularly useful for private sellers. Understanding the reason for selling can help you gauge if the car might have hidden issues.
Accident history affects the vehicle’s condition and value. Even minor repairs should be disclosed, so you can decide with all the facts at hand.
While mileage isn’t everything, it gives insight into how much life the car has left. Combine this with its age and maintenance history to assess its overall health.
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 trusted mechanic can spot issues that may not be visible to the naked eye. Sellers with good intentions generally won’t mind this request.
Regular maintenance extends a car's life. Ask for service records to ensure it’s been properly cared for.
Negotiation is a natural part of the car-buying process. Be prepared to discuss the price and highlight any flaws you’ve noticed to get the best deal.
Many dealerships have additional fees for things like documentation, registration, or delivery. Be sure to ask about these fees before finalizing the purchase.
