  Tips to purchasing a used vehicle:
  Check the registration status and Vehicle history. If the vehicle has been reported stolen or damaged, service New Brunswick may have record of this.  A vehicle that has been registered as “salvage”, “non-repairable”, or “rebuilt”, may not be able to be licensed or insured.  Check this information with Service New Brunswick before purchasing.

  
  Check for liens. Verify that there are no liens on the vehicle to ensure that a third party is not owed money for the vehicle. For example, if the owner used it as collateral for a loan that’s unpaid, the vehicle can be repossessed from you even if you paid full price to the seller. You can check for any liens with the Personal Property Registry System.
  

  Deposit. If you provide a deposit, ask if you will get it back if you decide not to buy the car.  Get this information in writing.

  
  Guarantees and warranties. If the seller is offering any guarantees get them in writing. Ask if there’s a warranty on the vehicle and review it to ensure you understand what is covered and for how long. Get any details in writing.  

  
  Inspection and maintenance. Ask where the previous owner had the car serviced and inspected, and ask to see any service records or receipts.
  

  Get a second opinion. Consider bringing the vehicle to a trusted mechanic to have them inspect the vehicle for damage before you purchase it.
  

  Test drives. If the seller refuses to allow you to test drive the car before you buy it, walk away. If the seller pressures you into a quick sale or insisting on a cash sale, reconsider before being bullied into a purchase.
  

  Price and mileage. Does the price sound too good to be true or does the mileage seem too low for the age of the vehicle? If it sounds too good to be true it probably is. If you’re uncomfortable or skeptical of the answer, walk away.
