How to Protect Yourself
Use Vehicle History Databases:
Check the vehicle’s Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) on the National Motor Vehicle Title Information System (NMVTIS) website (www.vehiclehistory.gov).
You can also check VINs at the National Insurance Crime Bureau (NICB) website (www.nicb.org) for free.
Inspect the Title:
Carefully examine the physical title for terms like “salvage,” “rebuilt,” “reconstructed,” or “flood”.
Request Records:
Ask the seller for original repair and maintenance records to get a clearer picture of the vehicle’s history.
Get an Independent Inspection:
Before buying, have a trusted, independent mechanic perform a thorough inspection to identify any hidden damage or shoddy repairs that might not be obvious to the average buyer.

...a deeper dive into the CARFAX vehicle history report, which he didn't pull until after the sale, uncovered a "minor accident." True pandemic.

A used car salesman mislead him? I’m SHOCKED!
You have to wonder, how did Tesla get pictures of the damage and repair? Was the “shoddy” repair by a Tesla dealer?
