How to Determine if a Car is a Refurbished Vehicle?
1 Answers
When selecting a car, the first thing to check is the production date. The more recent the production date, the better. "For cars that have been in storage for a long time, the transit cycle is shorter, and the chances of scratches and repairs are significantly reduced. Therefore, it's advisable to choose a car with a recent production date." Check if the engine is clean; inspect whether the screws and nuts show signs of being turned, as these parts are installed by factory robots and should not have any marks or paint traces. If you open the hood of a new car and find obvious dust inside, you should carefully reconsider. Test drives and refurbished cars may not be the same. Secondly, examine the tires. Newly manufactured tires usually have tread hairs, and test drives can reset the mileage, which incurs no cost. However, replacing tires would be too expensive. Therefore, tires are often coated with tire wax, but waxing cannot conceal driving marks. Thirdly, inspect the car paint. When examining the car, you might want to check the seams, chassis, and edges of rubber fittings. Look for obvious signs of respraying, such as checking if the gaps are uniform, comfortable, and visually pleasing, whether there are paint spots in each gap, and if each welding point is coated with soft glue. View the entire car paint at a 45-degree angle to see if the glossiness and reflected light are uniform.
