Review the CARFAX® Vehicle History Report
Before you begin, it’s a good idea to check out the vehicle’s CARFAX® report. This shows if the vehicle was properly cared for and received routine maintenance. This is one of the best ways to know if a vehicle will be reliable for you.
The vehicle history report also shows:
- If the vehicle was involved in any accidents
- If it received the necessary repairs
- If it has any open recalls
- If it was used for personal or commercial use
Research it Online
It’s also helpful to research the model itself online. You want to take a close look at its performance, as well as features and amenities. This is a good way to see if the model includes everything you’re looking for.
While searching online, also take note of the vehicle’s reviews. What do its previous and current owners have to say? What do they love about the vehicle? What do they wish they could change?
Take a Test Drive
No matter how well a vehicle checks out on paper, you never want to skip the test drive. This is important so that you can make sure the vehicle doesn’t have any issues or unusual wear and tear. You also want to make sure you feel comfortable navigating the vehicle and that it’s truly what you’re looking for.
