What should I pay attention to in second-hand car trading? How to trade?
2. Careful inspection of the corrosion of the car body has a great relationship with the service life of the original car and its future service life. Otherwise, after the car is bought back, the body will shake, and if it is serious, it needs welding or maintenance. Check the door, window, fender, downpipe, sealing strip, etc. to see the sealing condition and corrosion degree. You can also open the trunk and uncover the front foot pad to see if there is any water leakage on the trunk floor. 3. Check the working conditions of the chassis, wheel arch, shock absorber, etc. You can press the corner of the car body hard by hand. After releasing it, look at the number of bounces, preferably between 2 and 3 times. If you can't jump freely or make noise, it proves that the shock absorber or suspension system spring is not working properly.
4. Check whether there are any repair marks on the engine room and the bottom edge of the car to prevent you from buying a car for accident maintenance. When checking the chassis, you can drive the car into the ditch to facilitate the inspection. 5. Observe the appearance of the whole vehicle from a distance and browse carefully. Such as whether the height of the car body is symmetrical, whether the windshield is in good condition, whether the tires are in good condition without wear and tear, etc. Pay attention to the details inside 1, the door glass should be able to rise and fall freely, up to the top and down to the bottom, and the sliding window switch should be easy, push and pull smoothly and seal well.
2. Check the switches and display lights on the instrument panel, steering wheel and steering column one by one. By the way, check whether the main power cord is intact, whether the wires in the harness are aging, and pay special attention to whether there is self-wiring. If there is wiring, it is very likely that the wires in the harness are originally open-circuited and short-circuited.
3, shake the steering wheel by hand, there can be no gap up and down, the left and right free travel can not be too big, the surface feels good.
4, the seat surface should be clean, intact, no damage, scratches. The front seat can move back and forth freely, and several positions can be fixed, which is convenient for passengers to choose the right seat freely. Broken pedal pads, dirty seats and worn door handrails all mean that the car has traveled a long distance. If the seller provides the seat cover, be sure to check the original seat cushion.
5. After sitting down, put your hand on the steering wheel and step on the clutch pedal with your left foot. You should feel relaxed and freestyle for a short time. Keep a certain height when stepping on the brake pedal with your right foot. If the downward movement is slow, it means that the brake system is leaking. The accelerator pedal should not be too heavy to return. When the legs and feet are placed on the accelerator pedal, the ankles should be natural and comfortable, so as to ensure that the long-distance driving is not tired. Used car experts exposed 5 minefields: strangers cheated to sell cars. Used car experts exposed 5 minefields: strangers cheated to sell cars.
Editor's Note: Recently, Wei Zhi, a second-hand car expert in China United Exchange Market, disclosed to this newspaper the most common dispute in the process of second-hand car trading, that is, the transaction between individuals. According to his long-term observation, he found that private disputes have become the biggest minefield in used car trading. To this end, he reminded his friends that when buying and selling used cars, never deal with unlicensed idlers, but must do business in the regular used car market.
Private second-hand car trading, beware of stepping on minefields.
The scary minefield reminds me of the essay "Selling Cars". In this sketch, Fan Wei learned all the tricks that Zhao Benshan used to fool him, and applied them to others to open a psychological clinic. When I met Zhao Benshan again this time, no matter how Zhao Benshan fooled me, he saw through them one by one. At this time, Fan Weiben thought that he had become smarter than Zhao Benshan, but he still didn't expect that Zhao Benshan finally pulled out his new "killer" and used his two disciples to successfully fool him again. Indeed, it is understandable that businessmen pursue profit maximization. However, "a gentleman loves money well", if he uses inducement and fraud, he will eventually be spurned by rational consumers. "No matter how stupid a person is, you can cheat him once or twice, but you can't cheat him a third time, can you?" In tears and vows, the businessman's integrity is losing day by day, which is tantamount to the bottom of a bucket for a mercenary businessman ... At the end of the "car sale", Zhao Benshan returned the "money" to Fan Wei. It seems that Zhao Benshan has turned over a new leaf this time. He just wants to educate Fan Wei through this matter. No one should fool anyone in the future. Everyone should be a good person and draw a perfect ending for the end of this sketch. I hope that in the private transactions in the used car market, merchants will take this as a warning and fill the scary minefield with integrity. Minefield 1? Slaughter is an acquaintance
Friends all know the essence of the transaction, but when it comes to the transaction price, it is easy to "hurt feelings" and it is "killing" a lot of money. "It's easy for an acquaintance to do things", but when economic interests are involved, both sides must "settle accounts with brothers". ? [experience activities]? A 30,000 yuan car will cost you 50,000 yuan.
A friend came to me with a car and asked me if it was worth 50 thousand yuan. He knew at a glance that someone else was going to sell it to him, and he had no idea. It's hard for me to do it, too Let's just say it's not worth it When I go back, he will talk to his friends and bargain, which will definitely hurt his face. In fact, when I was looking at the car, it was worth 30 thousand, and the seller was quite "black". I also saw two friends fail to negotiate the price of an Alto in September 2002. The owner is 20,000, and the next home is definitely 1.9 million. After several days of "dispute", there was no result. ? [Expert reminder]? Know the condition of the car and inquire about the market? Businessmen like to slaughter acquaintances and friends and take advantage of their weaknesses. This businessman has no real friends, only acquaintances. No matter what the price, you must see clearly the condition of the car, whether there are accidents or mechanical failures, so as not to leave "sequelae". Second, it is best for both parties to go to the second-hand car market together, understand the trading market and clarify the transaction. Minefield 2? You lied to strangers? Some people also trade vehicles in other ways, such as looking for advertisements such as "personal urgent purchase, white-collar purchase" through the Internet. I dare not say the truth of this, but I must be careful when dealing with strangers. If you sell cars, you should check the buyer's ID card. The process of selling cars is generally "one-handed money, one-handed car", but at that time, it was necessary to transfer ownership. Take Zhonglian used car market as an example. In the case of complete procedures and no violation record, the transfer time is less than 20 minutes, so time should not be a problem. ? [personal experience]
Cheat procedures to sell cars.
Anonymous mainly sells a Honda car and finds a stranger who doesn't have the qualification of a used car broker and doesn't belong to the staff of the brokerage company. As a result, he cheated the car, the formalities and the owner's ID card on the grounds of helping with the formalities. The purpose was to sell the car for more than 100,000 yuan, but fortunately, he was detected by the public security department in time and was arrested when the liar was ready to change hands.
[Expert reminder]
Switch to the used car market? It is important to note that the location of the car should not be far away from the urban area, so as not to be used by people with ulterior motives. For example, Zhonglian used car market and Hu Axiang used car market are located in West Fourth Ring Road and South Fourth Ring Road respectively, which is very convenient for transfer. Minefield 3
Are you car blind? Don't sell your car just for the right price, transfer it in time to protect your own interests. ? [experience activities]? Selling cars is not illegal? A man's car mainly sells a Bora, and he also found a used car broker. At that time, the price was140 thousand. I sold the car to him because it exceeded the psychological price. Half a year has passed and there is no transfer. The shopkeeper is worried. He called the man, but he said that the car had changed hands, and then found the next home and got the answer that it had changed hands again. The car changed hands twice, and the owner was a little anxious and looked for it again. ? [Expert reminder]? Should I follow the transfer all the way? This example is a typical example. I just want to get the right price, but I don't transfer the ownership, causing myself trouble. It can be seen that if it is really necessary to conduct a transaction with an individual, the transfer should be handled immediately after the transaction, and the change of driving license and motor vehicle registration certificate (including purchase tax and road maintenance fee) should be handled at the vehicle management office, and the whole process should be followed. This is the greatest protection for your rights and interests. When buying and selling used cars, you must know the transaction in advance. ? Minefield 4? Are you bluffing about "digging"? The price on the car collection advertisement is "for reference only" to avoid being "blocked" when selling the car. Some people who are greedy and cheap are gullible. ? [experience activities]? Small ads are not true? Usually, when paying the road maintenance fee and annual inspection, you will often receive many personal small advertisements for picking up cars, which are printed with the "acquisition reference price" of various models, but the models announced in the small advertisements are not specific enough, which is quite different from the facts. The advertising price is generally much higher than the actual price, and the high price is just to attract customers, which is called "canceling the price". ? [Expert reminder]? Collect used car information extensively? You should go to the regular used car market to get familiar with the market, and it is best to collect information about used cars extensively. It is best to find a model similar to the brand, year and condition of the car, and judge the approximate purchase price by its price tag. Minefield 5? Sticking to everyone? "sell? Do you sell it? " Many car owners go to the used car market, and there are always people shouting at you around the market. You said you wanted to sell the car, and as a result, a dozen or more people gathered around, and then everyone who could get on the bus squeezed in. They are the sewing people who stick to you. ? [experience activities]? Can the price of the car be skinned? Afraid! Indeed, around the used car market and social parking lots, there are idle people who take sewing as their profession. They don't belong to the second-hand car brokerage company, and they don't have the qualification of second-hand car brokerage. If they are "glued" by these people, they will "peel off the skin" from your car. The more people are glued, the more they will peel off. For example, everyone who gets on your bus has a share of the money, and so do those who don't get on the bus outside. And "the wool is on the sheep", and their money is squeezed out of the car you bought. For example, you could have collected 50 thousand cars, but there are so many seams, and your loss can be imagined. ? [Expert reminder]? Ignore the sewing man? In the market, the best way to face these people is to ignore them. Even if we want to sell the car, we shouldn't "announce" We can form our own judgment by wandering around the market, seeing more and doing more. In addition, the second-hand car market in this city has set up "bidding to collect cars" and "online auction". The former is similar to an auction. When the owner sells the car, he gets the highest bid through the "bidding" of the second-hand car dealer, and the owner can choose whether to make a deal. This way is fair and just, the price obtained is more direct and real, and the interests of the owners can also be guaranteed.
In short, before selling a car, you must know more about the transaction, collect more first-hand information, accurately grasp the actual price, and be aware of it. You shouldn't act in a hurry.
Try to avoid dealing with individuals? From the above cases, we know that when dealing with used cars, we should try to avoid dealing with strangers to avoid being cheated. Choosing to go to the second-hand car market, looking for a regular second-hand car brokerage company and trading with brokers with second-hand car business qualifications can protect their own interests to the maximum extent. Moreover, as a market organizer, it can also provide consumers with necessary protection, and when economic disputes arise, the market can coordinate and solve them. ? 2. Should I go to a regular trading market? The transaction between individuals is not guaranteed, so you should go to the regular used car market. The second-hand car market in Beijing is composed of second-hand car brokerage companies, which are registered in the administrative department for industry and commerce and are legal enterprises. At the same time, as the organizer of the used car market, a three-level complaint management system is generally implemented, specifically: 1. After an economic dispute with a used car brokerage company, it can be settled through consultation with it first; 2. If you are not satisfied with the negotiation results, you can find the market management department. The market organizer has a functional department to handle consumer complaints, and can mediate according to the specific circumstances of economic disputes to ensure the legitimate rights and interests of consumers to the maximum extent; 3. If consumers think that the mediation effect has not been achieved, they can find the local administrative department for industry and commerce, and then deal with it according to the requirements of industrial and commercial laws and regulations. It is a very complicated problem to identify the condition of used cars according to the control engine. According to general experience, we can start from the following aspects: First, check all kinds of control devices. Gently hold the steering wheel up and down, if it is loose, the bearing on the upper part of the spindle will wear; Turn the steering wheel, if the gap is too large, it means that the steering wheel is used frequently; Whether the turn-on and turn-off of the direction lights are normal; Whether the horn rings; Whether the wiper blade is worn and the wiping angle is normal; Whether the seat adjustment device is normal; Whether the throttle is unblocked, stuck or loose; Whether the brake pedal clearance is small enough; Whether there is room for the hand brake to be pulled up when braking; Whether the shift is smooth, whether the bite feeling is obvious, etc. Second, check the lights on the dashboard. Turn on the switch to see whether the oil pressure gauge light is on and whether the oil gauge and water temperature gauge work; Start the engine, and see if the indicator lights of the oil pressure gauge and charging meter are off; Pull the damper to see if it is normal. Third, check the engine. Whether there is abnormal noise; Step on the gas pedal to see if it blows; Look at the exhaust color. If the white smoke is continuous or the color is blue, it means that there is engine oil burning. Fourth, check the engine room. Whether the cylinder head and tappet cover are leaking oil; Whether the water pipe clamp, water pump connector and radiator are leaking; Whether there is brake oil leakage from the brake oil pipe and the lower part of the master cylinder. Five, check the electrical system. Whether the connection of each line connector clip is normal; Whether the battery date has arrived. Sixth, check the body chassis. Observe the body sheet metal horizontally to see if there are any ups and downs when repairing. Whether there are traces of straightening or welding on the water tank cover and beam; Open the luggage carpet to see if there are any welding marks; Whether the chassis is rusty or leaking; Whether the body rubber is cracked or leaked; Whether the chassis girder is bent or welded. Ministry of Commerce promulgates norms for second-hand car trading. Second-hand cars should also have quality assurance. Since the promulgation of 1 Measures for the Administration of Second-hand Car Circulation last June, its supporting implementation rules, Specification for Second-hand Car Trading (hereinafter referred to as the Specification), have been formally implemented recently, and some second-hand car transactions must also have quality assurance. According to the regulations, before selling second-hand cars to buyers, second-hand car distribution enterprises should test vehicles, fill in relevant information for vehicles entering the sales exhibition area, and make it clear in a prominent position. At the same time, when selling vehicles with a service life of less than 3 years or a mileage of less than 60,000 kilometers to end users, second-hand car distribution enterprises should provide users with a quality guarantee of not less than 3 months or 5,000 kilometers (whichever comes first).
Quality assurance covers engine system, steering system, transmission system, braking system and suspension system. When providing after-sales service to end users, second-hand car distribution enterprises shall provide after-sales service lists to them; And in the process of providing after-sales service, the service items without the consent of customers shall not be added without authorization. Second-hand car distribution enterprises should also establish after-sales service technical files including basic information and maintenance records of vehicles.
In addition, the Code also has strict requirements for second-hand car brokerage institutions and auctions. Brokerage agencies that accept the entrustment to sell used cars shall not arbitrarily reduce the price or increase the price to sell the entrusted vehicles.
