What to ask
a used car dealer before buying your next used car?
In today’s environment, it pays to be an educated consumer. When
buying a used car, most people look at the car only. We encourage you
to also consider the used car dealer, what they do to examine the car
they are selling and all of the warranties and guaranties that come with
the purchase. Buying a car is the second biggest investment most people
make, which means you want to choose a dealer who will be your partner
the entire time you own your car. Ask these questions as you visit various
dealers when looking for your next car.
Used Car Price:
Q: Is it a haggle-free price?
A: Some used car dealers set
the prices high, knowing that there is room for negotiation. Of course,
they are going to push for the top used car price they believe you are
prepared to pay, which could be different than what they think the person
next to you will pay. Other dealers offer a no-haggle price, which means
everyone pays the same price, which is great because it takes away one
of the frustrations of buying a car.
At Web Buy Auto, our prices are haggle-free prices, so the price you see
> is the price you pay (not every used car dealer can say that).
Q: Will they meet or beat
the NADA or Kelley Blue Book Value TM for Retail Used Cars **?
A: Not all used car dealers are willing to match or beat
the NADA or Kelley Blue Book Value TM for Retail Used Cars **. There are
used car dealers that make a commitment to pricing their cars at or below
the NADA or Kelley Blue Book values. In the end, the dealer you choose
is up to you. Before you buy, come visit Web Buy Auto where we set our
used car prices below their NADA or Kelley Blue Book values.
Vehicle Certification:
Q: Who certifies the
car?
A: Who certifies the car makes a difference. Ideally, the
used car certification will be performed by an independent ASE Certified
technician because it means an unbiased technician, not the dealer’s
employees, is making the decision on which items, if any, need to be repaired
or replaced. Each and every used car sold by Web Buy Auto goes through a
109-point certification process performed by an independent ASE Certified
technician.
Protection After
the Sale:
Q: Does your purchase include
a warranty?
A: Most late model, low-mileage used vehicles carry the
balance of their factory warranties. Some dealers even offer additional
warranties for added protection. Note that not all warranties are created
equal. Be sure to compare those offered by the used car dealers you are
considering. Web Buy Auto offers a 12-month/12,000-mile* Limited Powertrain
Warranty.
Q: Do you offer a service contract?
A: Most dealers offer vehicle service contracts that
address mechanical repairs beyond the warranty period or that are not
covered by their warranty. It is important to understand what is or is
not covered as programs vary by provider. It is also important that your
provider is a reputable and stable company that has nationwide coverage
to ensure you have coverage when you need a repair.
Trade-ins:
Q: Do you take trade-ins?
A: To ensure a convenient car buying experience, you should
ensure that your dealer accepts trade-ins. Web Buy Auto accepts trade-ins
to make driving home in vehicle as easy as possible.
