What does Salvage Branded IF Rebuilt specifically mean, and is it just a regular salvage title?

/0 Comments/in /by

A vehicle with a ‘Salvage Branded IF Rebuilt’ title has been significantly damaged in the past and subsequently repaired and re-inspected. These vehicles are operable and safe to drive, but the ‘rebuilt’ designation will permanently remain on their title and registration documents. This title is issued instead of a clean title to ensure buyers know the vehicle’s history and prevent it from being sold at a value comparable to undamaged vehicles. Once a vehicle has a rebuilt title, it will never revert to having a clean title; it will always carry evidence of its past condition. It is still considered a salvage vehicle in the context of title branding.

What is “reconstructed title or rebuilt title”?

/0 Comments/in /by

When a vehicle is involved in an accident, and salvaged by the Insurance Company, it has to be reconstructed before being placed back on the road. After the vehicle is repaired, it`s inspected by an authorized mechanic and certified by the DMV as reconstructed to manufacturer specifications. The DMV issues a `reconstructed` title, which is treated the same way as a “clean” title regarding registration and insurance purposes. Please note http://www.ridesafely.com does not guarantee that all title denominations can be reconstructed in any particular state or country. Please refer any title questions to your local DMV.
