Before you buy

Three things, in order. Ten minutes of work, standing at the car.

  1. 1
    Run the VIN for open recalls

    1 open — all free fixes. Confirm each is closed before you hand over money.

  2. 2
    Test-drive checklist
    • 4-cyl: On a 2019-2020 car, VIN-check 21V301000 and ask whether the engine was inspected/replaced and PNSS software installed; on any year listen for knock, watch for stalling, and check oil level and burn rate.
  3. 3
    Get a pre-purchase inspection

    An hour with a mechanic on the items above is the cheapest insurance you’ll buy.
