Don't run the risk of buying a lemon. Run a Vehicle History report to uncover things that the seller may not want you to know.
It is vital that prior to purchasing a pre-owned vehicle that you take a look into the vehicles history. A Vehicle History Report offers reliable and detailed information on practically any pre-owned vehicle. Beyond helping you assess the vehicles value, a Vehicle History Report will give you vital information such as the vehicles ownership history, prior accidents, recalls, collision details, mileage rollback, flood damage and much more...
To run a Vehicle History Report you will first need to locate your Vehicle Identification Number also referred to as VIN. A VIN is comprised of a unique set of characters, which includes both letters and numbers and it can be found on the driver's side dashboard when looking from outside directly through the windshield. The VIN may also be found on the vehicle driver's side doorframe, engine block as well as the vehicles title and registration documents.

Before buying a pre-owned car in Florida, there are some things you should know. Florida has no Lemon Law for used cars. Hence, as a buyer, your protection is limited. This is especially alarming considering how many vehicles were damaged and flooded by the recent storms in that region. So, buying a good clean pre-owned vehicle in Florida comes with its own set of unique challenges. Keep in mind unlike many other US states once you purchase a lemon vehicle in Florida there is very little legal recourse. Meaning most likely you will be stuck with the vehicle and all of its hefty maintenance and repair costs.
This is all very important information to keep in mind when buying a car in Florida because in addition to the seller friendly laws there are a significant number of accidents recorded in the state of Florida. According to the state-owned Florida Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (FlHSMV) statistics, this year the state of Florida has recorded a total of 253,758 crashes, 145, 712 of these were categorized as severe crashes. Most of the vehicles involved in severe crashes had at least one air bag deployed and sustained an extensive amount of damage. Majority of these vehicles are reconstructed and eventually make their way to the used car market.
Another somewhat freighting fact is not all the severely damaged cars in Florida qualify for a branded title so, you can potentially purchase a salvaged vehicle with a clean/unbranded title. This is why a Comprehensive Vehicle History report is such an invaluable tool. Regardless if the car has a branded title or not VinCheckUp will display the vehicles accident history along with a vast amount of pertinent details, such as air bag deployment, if it was flooded, had its millage rolled back and much more...
