A salvage title vehicle has been in an accident or a flood, or it has been stolen but recovered, and the company insuring the vehicle has determined that the cost to repair the damages done to the vehicle exceeds a certain percentage of the vehicle's cost. This does not mean a salvage vehicle is not worth repairing. Renault CAN Clip  If a thief took the car on a joy ride (versus stripping it of its parts or wrecking it) before the vehicle was recovered; if the floodwaters remained below the level of the vehicle's electrical components; and if the accident didn't damage the vehicle's most vital parts, the vehicle may run for years to come. Fixing a salvage title vehicle is a risk because the extent of the damage is not always evident.

If the Vehicle Has Been in a Flood

    Find out if the water was fresh water or salt water. Because salt water can corrode wires and connections, the repairs may be costly if not impossible.

    Look for rust on any metal components under the dash. If you see rust, it means the water level was high enough to potentially damage electrical components.

    Look for rust inside the cigarette lighter, which may indicate a dangerously high water level.

    Notice whether or not lights are out on the dashboard--lights that have gone out also indicate a high water level.

    Check the car over for general maintenance issues if the water level doesn't appear to have been too high.
