Rebuilt/Reconstructed Title
A Rebuilt/Reconstructed vehicle is a salvage vehicle that has been
repaired and restored to operation. These vehicles are often severely
damaged before they are rebuilt and refurbished parts are typically
used during reconstruction. In most states, an inspection of the
vehicle is required before the vehicle is allowed to return to the
road.
Manufacturer Buyback or Lemon
A DMV or a state agency marks an official document or issues a
Manufacturer Buyback/Lemon title when a vehicle has been repurchased by
the manufacturer. Not all states issue manufacturer buyback titles and
the specific requirements for a lemon law vehicle varies by state.
Odometer Rollback
If a more recent odometer reading is less than an older reading, then
the odometer may have been tampered with and "rolled back".
Manufacturer Recall
Automobile manufacturers issue recall notices to inform owners of car
defects that have come to the manufacturer's attention. Recalls also
suggest improvements that can be made to improve the safety of a
particular vehicle. Most manufacturer recalls can be repaired at no
cost to you.
Basic Warranty
Most manufacturers offer a basic warranty for new vehicles. These
warranties vary by manufacturer and typically last for a certain amount
of time and/or a set number of miles.
Not Actual Mileage Title
When the seller certifies, under the Federal Odometer Act, that the
odometer reading does not reflect the vehicle's actual mileage. This
may occur because the odometer was tampered with, broken, or replaced.
Junk Title
A Junk Title is issued on a vehicle damaged to the extent that the cost
of repairing the vehicle exceeds ~ 75% of its pre-damage value. This
damage threshold may vary by state. The majority of states use this
title to indicate that a vehicle is not road worthy and cannot be
titled again. Some states treat Junk titles the same as Salvage.
Loss Due To Fire Title
The vehicle sustained major damage due to fire. In most states, fire
damage titles are issued when the cost of repairing the vehicle for
safe operation exceeds its fair market value.
Exceeds Mechanical Limits
A vehicle with a 5-digit odometer cannot accurately track mileage after
99,999 miles because the odometer rolls over. This title is the result
of a seller certifying under the Federal Odometer Act, that the
odometer reading EXCEEDS MECHANICAL LIMITS of the odometer.
Structural / Frame Damage
In most cases, a vehicle is inspected for structural or frame damage,
depending on the body design, after an accident or other incident. All
levels of accidents from minor to severe can cause structural / frame
damage and in most cases it can be repaired.
Airbag Deployment
Occurs when the driver, passenger or side airbag has been used or
deployed during a crash or other incident. If an airbag has been
deployed, it must be replaced by a qualified technician. Have this car
inspected by a mechanic prior to purchase.
Salvage Title
A Salvage Title is issued on a vehicle damaged to the extent that the
cost of repairing the vehicle exceeds ~ 75% of its pre-damage value.
This damage threshold may vary by state. Some states treat Junk titles
the same as Salvage but the majority use this title to indicate that a
vehicle is not road worthy and cannot be titled again in that state.
The following eleven States also use Salvage titles to identify stolen
vehicles - AZ, FL, GA, IL, MD, MN, NJ, NM, NY, OK and OR.
Total Loss
An insurance or fleet company declares a vehicle a total loss when a
claim exceeds ~ 75% of its pre-damage value or if the vehicle is stolen
and not recovered. This damage threshold varies by company. These
companies typically take possession and obtain the title. Not all total
loss vehicles result in a DMV-reported branded title, like a Salvage or
Junk title. See the glossary for more information.
Accident Indicator
Various events could indicate an accident in a vehicle's history, such
as: salvage auction, fire damage, police-reported accident, crash test
vehicle, damage disclosure, collision repair facility and automotive
recycler records. See the glossary for more information.
Hail Damage Title
The vehicle sustained major damage due to hail. In most states, hail
damage titles are issued when the cost of repairing the vehicle for
safe operation exceeds its fair market value.
Flood Damage Title
States issue flood titles when a vehicle has been in a flood or has received extensive water damage.
