1 Answers
Replacing the bumper does not count as an accident vehicle. Below is the extended content: Definition of an accident vehicle: An accident vehicle refers to a vehicle where the engine compartment and the passenger compartment have been damaged. Vehicles with rear quarter panel impacts exceeding 1/3 of the panel. Vehicles with welded, reshaped, cut, or deformed longitudinal beams, shock absorbers, or ABC pillars. Vehicles where the airbags have deployed. Vehicles where the body has been submerged in water exceeding half of the body height, or where water has entered the passenger compartment. Vehicles where the body has been on fire over an area exceeding 0.5 square meters, or where non-removable parts have been welded, cut, reshaped, or deformed. Methods to identify an accident vehicle: First, check the maintenance and repair records of the vehicle brand at the 4S store's after-sales department. Inquire with the insurance company about the vehicle's insurance to determine if the vehicle has been involved in an accident. Inspect the wear and tear of the vehicle's interior and check the exterior for any signs of repainting or repairs.
