Avoid buying a lemon when it comes to Charlotte used cars!

Toyota of N Charlotte used cars offer great warranties 

What should you lookout for on used cars in Charlotte? 

  • High mileage. This shouldn't always be a deterrent, but you should know that high mileage on used cars can often lead to more expensive upkeep (especially after you hit the 100,000 mile mark or the miles were accrued on the highway). If you're willing to put a little more effort into maintaining your ride, then this shouldn't be a problem! 
  • Rust. This is a big, fat warning sign. Carefully check all used cars in Charlotte for rust before you get behind the wheel, especially around the bumpers, fenders, and door jams. Rust will eat away at body work and result in extremely costly repairs in your future. 
  • Speaking of bodywork, check that over as well! Do you notice any places where panels don't really seem to meet, or patches of paint that doesn't quite match? Sometimes mechanics will take shortcuts to kill time, but these shortcuts can often mean money out of your pocket to fix the issue AGAIN in the future. Be on the lookout for poor bodywork! 
  • Also check over the car for any electrical issues, as they'll empty your wallet faster than you can blink. If you see a malfunctioning light in the dash, that can be an indicator. Also, be aware of flood damage, as that can often lead to electrical problems. It's expensive to replace the parts and even more expensive to install them, so don't get caught out!
