Do you think they're a mistake most of the time? Would you buy one for yourself? Hammer Time Ultimate Carjunky / Moderator Jun 10, 2018, 8:00 PM Post #2 of 5 (1391 views) Re: Rebuilt Titles/Vehicles Sign In They reduce the value of the vehicle by approximately half so most of the time, they are good to stay away from. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional. VCreed New User Jun 10, 2018, 8:59 PM Post #3 of 5 (1384 views) Re: Rebuilt Titles/Vehicles Sign In Yes, but I'm more asking about mechanical issues? I tend to keep cars until they break, so it's resale value is of limited importance. Tom Greenleaf Ultimate Carjunky / Moderator Jun 10, 2018, 10:44 PM Post #4 of 5 (1380 views) Re: Rebuilt Titles/Vehicles Sign In I know of these as cars/vehicles as "Salvage Titled" which means the manufacturer has zero responsibility for them anymore no matter what. Support for any problems, specifications could be a killer problem to keep them going at all. IDK - the up front savings could easily be lost and suggest against taking on one of these for real use in most cases. In a worse case you may have trouble even junking it? T Hammer Time Ultimate Carjunky / Moderator Jun 11, 2018, 4:33 AM Post #5 of 5 (1371 views) Re: Rebuilt Titles/Vehicles Sign In Of course you can have mechanical issues, along with serious body issues. You have no idea who rebuilt the car or how well. The frame could be twisted or dramatically weakened. Body panels could be permanently misaligned causing leaks that cannot be fixed. The title is permanently branded and in some states you can't even register them. The issues could be endless. I am a car dealer and I see these hacked up messes all the time at the auction. Other dealers are smart enough not to pay anything for them. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.   Email This Post   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
