AAA Can Help You Find and Buy Used Cars with Confidence

Sometimes buying a used car can feel like a game of chance. Luckily, AAA helps take the guesswork out of the whole process. AAA members can take advantage of our years of experience and wealth of helpful information about buying used cars.

Kicking the Tires is Just the Beginning. Here are some Helpful Tips to get You Started Before Your Test Drive:

• Before you buy a used car, verify the reading on the odometer.
• Check the windows, door locks and seat adjustments.
• Check the headlights, brake lights and turn indicators.
• Check for rust behind the bumpers and around the rocker panels below the doors.
• When you decide on the used car you want to buy, be sure to have it checked out by a certified mechanic at AAA Approved Auto Repair facility.
• If maintenance records are not available, find out where the car has been serviced and check with the facility.
