How to Check Used Car Maintenance and Insurance Records?
1 Answers
To check a used car's maintenance records, you can visit a 4S shop by providing the VIN code. For insurance records, you can inquire at the insurance company by presenting the vehicle license. Below are some considerations when buying a used car: 1. Price: It's essential to pay attention to the price when choosing a used car. Online platforms offer transparent pricing, and searching will give you a general price range. You can also refer to the prices in the used car market. After online comparisons and on-site inspections at the market, you can have a relatively accurate grasp of the selected model's price. 2. Documentation: Documentation is more important than the car's condition. If a car has issues with its documentation, it's best to avoid it. Ensure the vehicle's documents are authentic and complete. Check if the engine number and chassis number on the documents match those on the vehicle, whether the car can be transferred, if there are any mortgages, court seizures, financial disputes, unresolved violations, or if the inspection and insurance are overdue. For corporate vehicles, check if there are specific local transfer requirements. 3. Condition: Pay close attention to the car's condition when buying a used car. Even if a car is cheap, think twice if its condition is poor. After identifying your ideal model, if your budget allows, opt for a newer model. A newer model usually indicates less usage intensity, and some cars may not even have exceeded the original factory warranty period in terms of time and mileage.
