What does it mean when a car is sold “as is, where is”?

At RideSafely, vehicles sourced from Insurance Auto Auctions are offered in a competitive marketplace and sold to the highest bidder. Often, these vehicles are declared by insurance companies to have sustained damage that exceeds a certain value threshold, and are therefore sold “as is, where is.” This designation means that the vehicles come without any warranties or guarantees. As a buyer, you assume responsibility for any existing or potential issues. This indicates that the vehicle is being sold in its current state, regardless of its condition. We strongly recommend conducting thorough research on the vehicle’s history using resources like CARFAX and AutoCheck. Please ensure you verify all details and bid with full knowledge of the vehicle’s status.
