Before you buy a used sedan

  • Look for even tire wear; uneven wear can point to alignment or suspension problems.
  • Run the VIN for open safety recalls and ask the seller whether they have been repaired (repairs are free at a dealer).
  • Get a pre-purchase inspection from an independent mechanic before you pay.
  • Compare the asking price with similar listings, and budget for tax, title and registration.
