If you were to purchase a used car or truck, would you ask the dealer for the history report on the vehicle Furthermore, if they don't provide a history report, would you still buy the vehicle?
While shopping for a used automobile, I always request that the
dealer provide a history report on any vehicle. If the dealer could
not provide me a history report on a vehicle I was considering
purchasing, I would not make the purchase that day. I would take
everything into consideration and do further research on the car on
my own time, if I was dead set on owning the car and it's history
was clean, I might buy it from the dealer - but begrudgingly. If a
dealer can't provide a history report for the vehicles they are
selling it raises a red flag that they aren't as reputable as they
seem. It could be that they are trying to hide known negative
information from you about the vehicle that would sway you from not
purchasing it, or it could show that the dealership doesn't have
enough respect for the customer to provide them with all the
knowledge on the vehicle so the customer can make an educated
decision.
