Master Tip
Let’s start with the most important pre-purchase tip on the page, shall we? The most effective way to protect yourself from unpleasant surprises when buying a used SUV is to have the vehicle assessed by a technician in a dealer setting for a Pre-Purchase Inspection (PPI) as a final step before you write a cheque.
Many shoppers avoid this check, since it costs money and requires you to go to a place. Still, the smartest shoppers make this inspection a priority before they buy. For your investment of about $150 or so, a PPI provides the high-quality peace of mind that comes from setting an expert loose on the vehicle you’re after, on a hunt for possible concerns or issues that could cost you a lot of money, or conversely validate that the three-row crossover SUV you’re considering is healthy and trouble-free.
