Shopping for used SUVs can be fun and exciting. But you want to be sure to thoroughly check out all systems and accessories to ensure everything works properly. Do your research and check the value as well. Blaise Alexander Hyundai of Altoona is here to make your experience a pleasant one.
Check the Condition
Visually inspect the exterior of the vehicle for dents, scratches, rust, peeling or fading paint, and excessive wear and tear. You want to be sure you are buying an SUV that has a nice appearance as well and is damage-free. Check under the hood for battery cable corrosion, fluid leaks, and cracked belts or hoses. Any of these can be a red flag and you will want to have a thorough mechanical check if you have any concerns.
Ask For a Vehicle History Report
A vehicle history report will tell you if the SUV has any body damage or mechanical issues. It will also give you a maintenance history so you know whether regular service has been performed according to manufacturer recommendations. Regular service keeps your vehicle running and performing optimally.
Take a Test Drive
Before you make a decision ask to take a test drive. This is the only way you will be able to tell how it runs and handles. Try out all accessories and options such as turn signals, heating and air conditioning, and any automatic features such as power locks and windows.
