Automobile Fraud: Hidden Damages of the Car

You must be very careful if you consider buying a used car. According some research about 10 to 12% of the used cars sold have some kind of hidden damage. Moreover, it is estimated that approximately one million cars which have been totaled and rebuilt are sold each year as cars that had not sustained any damage. So if you are thinking about purchasing a used vehicle you should first have it inspected by a qualified mechanic. Make sure the mechanic is not related to the dealership from which you are buying the vehicle. Car dealers will disclose to you any damage history of the car telling that they simply don’t have any information about the prior history of the vehicle. Be aware that the titling laws vary from state to state and there are numerous titling scams. The result of these laws even totaled cars that are entitled to be salvaged vehicles can be re-titled in another state. Sometimes these vehicles are sold in auctions and end up in a state far away and the dealer who sells the car may not have information about the vehicle history.
