Things To Check Before Buying A Used Car
#honda #car #forsale Check to see if the vehicle rests properly on level ground. If the car leans to one side, it might indicate a binding shock absorber or strut, a bad spring or torsion bar, bent suspension parts, or even a twisted chassis. All of these can lead to major ongoing repairs.
Rust on the vehicle indicates a breakdown of metal. Over time, rust can eat through the door, floorboards, body, frame, and chassis.
Check underneath the car, hinges, and door edges for rust
Lift up the pad or carpet in the trunk and check for rust in floorboards
Check for leaking fluids under the car
Checking the frame will reveal if the car has been in an accident and is one of the most important items on the checklist for buying a used car. A damaged frame, if not repaired properly, can reduce the car’s ability to protect you in an accident.
Inspect the car’s “saddle” (the framework that connects the front fenders and holds the top of the radiator) to make sure it’s bolted – not welded – on both sides. Welding indicates parts were replaced after a crash.
Examine the bolt heads for scratch marks. These are located at the top of the fenders inside the hood.
Finally, inspect the door jambs for welds. Any scratch marks on bolt heads or welds to the saddle or door jambs, indicate a prior accident.
An important tip to buy a used car is to make sure the vehicle has been taken care of properly.
Check under the hood for rust, dents, visible damage, or even animals living there (it happens).
Examine the fenders for a decal containing the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). If the decals are missing, chances are that the fenders have been replaced due to an accident.
