1. What is an accident car?
Accident car usually refers to the serious accident of the vehicle itself. Even if this kind of car is repaired, there may still be some safety hazards. If it's just a minor accident like a scratch, this kind of car is usually not an accident car. Meet any of the following, it is an accident car:
1, after the impact, the engine compartment and cockpit vehicles were damaged.
2. The impact damage of the rear fender of the car body exceeds one third of the vehicle.
3. The longitudinal beam has vehicles that are welded, cut, reshaped and deformed.
4. The shock absorber seat has welded, cut, reshaped and deformed vehicles.
5. Each train has welded, cut, reshaped and deformed vehicles.
6. Vehicles with airbags ejected due to impact.
7. Vehicles with other non-detachable parts that are severely welded, cut, reshaped and deformed.
8. Vehicles whose bodies are soaked in water for more than half of their bodies, or vehicles with accumulated water entering the cockpit.
9. The car body was burned by fire for more than 0.5 square meters. After repair, there are still potential safety hazards.
Second, how to judge the accident car?
For many consumers who buy used cars, there is also the possibility of worrying about buying accident cars. I don't know how to look at the car at the same time, and where to pay attention. Even if I know which position to look at, it is easy to be fooled.
Besides looking at the appearance and interior of the vehicle, I'll tell you another trick: check the insurance. Insurance companies in China have realized information sharing. Previous accidents, even if the insurance company is changed, the record still exists. And even if more owners are replaced, as long as the frame number remains unchanged, the accident record of the vehicle will continue.
So as long as you provide the frame number to the insurance company, you can find out whether there is an overhaul record in the accident record, so as to judge whether it is an accident car. (Of course, you have to pay for the maintenance yourself, unless there is no insurance. )
Iii. Matters needing attention in accident car trading
If an accident car needs to be bought or sold, it must go through the accident car formalities. The accident car procedure is actually a voucher, which proves whether the accident car is repaired or not and whether it can run again. It is an official certificate issued by the vehicle management office, which proves that the car has had a major traffic accident. The accident car procedure is also equivalent to the "identity certificate" of the accident car. With it, it will not be illegal to buy and sell the accident car normally, which proves that the accident car is legal and not an illegal black car.
