Biohazardous/Chemical Damage

Vehicles marked with biohazardous or chemical damage have been exposed to substances that may require specialized cleaning or disposal.

Burn Damage (Engine, Interior, Overall)

Fire damage can affect a vehicle's engine, interior, or spread throughout the entire car. The severity of the burn damage impacts the type of repairs needed.

Flood/Water Damage

Water or flood damage can affect both the interior and the mechanical components of the vehicle. The extent of the damage often depends on how long the vehicle was exposed to water.

Frame Damage

Vehicles with frame damage may need structural repairs, but with expert handling, these vehicles can still be a great option.

Front End Damage

Front-end damage typically affects the grille, headlights, and bumper. It can vary from minor to severe depending on the extent of the collision.

Hail Damage

Hail damage typically affects the exterior of the vehicle. Dents and cracked glass can often be repaired, making these vehicles a good investment.

Mechanical Damage

Cars with mechanical damage may have issues with the engine, transmission, or other mechanical components. Understanding the extent of the damage is key to making an informed purchase.

Minor Dents and Scratches

Vehicles with minor dents and scratches often have mostly cosmetic damage, which can be fixed at a low cost.

Normal Wear

Rear End Damage

Rear-end damage often involves the bumper, taillights, and trunk area. Repair costs can vary based on the impact.

Rollover damage can cause extensive harm to the roof and body structure of the vehicle. Repairs may involve significant restoration efforts depending on the severity.

Roof/Top Damage

Top or roof damage usually affects the roof panel and can vary in severity from minor dents to more significant damage caused by impacts.

Salvage History

Vehicles with a salvage history have previously sustained damage but may have been repaired. It's important to understand the extent of the original damage and how well it was repaired.

Side Damage

Side damage typically affects the doors, windows, and side panels. Repairs can range from minor bodywork to more extensive frame adjustments.
