Hello everyone,
I am looking to buy a used 2016 CHRYSLER 300 with a 3.6L V6 SOHC 24V engine. The car is listed at a price of $11,600 but it is a salvage title. I am a little hesitant to purchase this car due to the title and I was wondering if anyone had any experience with buying a salvage car or any advice on the matter.
I understand that the title can be an indicator of a potentially unreliable car, but the price is so low that I am tempted to buy. I would just like to hear the opinion of the forum members before I make a decision.
Has anyone purchased a used car with a salvage title? If so, were you satisfied with the purchase? Was it worth the risk? Any advice or tips on how to ensure I make a safe purchase would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your time and input!
UPDATE:
I appreciate all of your excellent advice. I made the decision to run the report first because I'm really interested in this car. I chose to run a VIN CHECK and also get a Window Sticker from the Detailed Vehicle History Report For their excellent customer service. I was able to find the damaged image in the report as well as received the window for this car. The damage seems to be pretty extensive.
Here is the report: Vehicle History Report for VIN: 2C3CCAAG9GH224528
