Should You Buy a Car With an Accident History?
A car with a minor, well-repaired accident history can be a safe buy at a lower price, but major structural damage is best avoided. The key is the quality of the repair and an honest history. Always inspect and disclose. Carology inspects and RTA-verifies every car so you know what you are buying.
Minor vs major
Cosmetic repairs done properly are usually fine. Structural or airbag-deployment damage is higher risk and harder to resell.
