Hello, Here you are bidding on a 2010 Chevy Equinox LS 2.4 engine that gets 32mpg and its FRONT WHEEL DRIVE. 1 key with 1 key fob. This equinox is being sold with a clean title. We bought this equinox at auction and fully intend to have it repaired if no one is the high bidder. We haven't taken this equinox apart, but the only damage that i can find is only to the upper front bumper cover, right front fender, and lower front grille has a crack in it. I have some spare grilles that i could give you if your interested. I don't have a fender or bumper cover. but i know you can get a new fender for $100 or about $150 used in color. i also know you can get bumper covers in color for $200-$300. There doesn't appear to be any damage to the cooling. No leaks and everything works. I don't see any reason why you can't get in this equinox and drive it clear across the country. No squeeks, No rattles, No air bags deployed, No lights are on the dash that aren't suppose to be. I don't know how this damage happened, but due to a couple maintance stickers that are in the door jam, i think this is either a rental, fleet car, or lease car. The title has this equinox registered to the Midwest Car Corp. Engine and transmission run and sound great. AC works just fine. The right headlight looks to be just fine, but i haven't removed it to check the back side. Tires all look like they have 90% life left. Fyi, We have a lien release from the prior owner and the title in hand. So its all ready for you to register right away. Any questions please feel free to ask. PAYMENT, We will need a $500 deposit via pay pal or cash in person due with in 48hrs of the end of the auction to secure this vehicle.

I can get it inspected here in Minnesota, but that wouldn't do you any good if you live out of state.

All sales are final. We will provide you with a bill of sale, title, repair receipts, and photos of the car before it was repaired.

Salvage Title Info, Info below was pulled from Wikipedia about salvage titles. In the United States, a salvage title is a form of vehicle title branding, which notes that the vehicle has been severely damaged and/or deemed a total loss by an insurance company that paid a claim on it. The criteria for determining when a salvage title is issued differ considerably by state. In a minority of states, regulations require a salvage title for stolen vehicles but, in others, it is issued only for losses due to damage. Under some circumstances, a salvage title denotation may be removed or replaced with a Rebuilt Salvage designation and cars imported to, or exported from, the United States may be issued a clean title regardless of history. Because a salvage title can be issued to a vehicle with easy repairable problems or no damage whatsoever, the low cost of the salvaged motorcycle or car is appealing to some hobbyists and investors. Determination of Salvage Status, In general, a vehicle is deemed "salvage" when the insurer determines that the repair or replacement cost is in excess of approximately 75% of its market value at the time of the accident or theft. Thresholds range between 50% and 95% of the vehicle's value, while "total loss states" leave the specifics to the insurer. Upon paying the claim, the insurer may offer to return the vehicle to the owner as an insurance buy-back, in which case the owner is responsible for having the repairs made and having the car inspected by a State-designated facility. Depending on the state, this inspection may remove the salvage brand from the vehicle's title. The exact percentage of value that triggers the decision to total the vehicle is guided by applicable laws and regulations. The damage estimate is calculated at retail repair rates, which may be more than the cost of wholesale repair. Vehicles that are not bought back are auctioned as salvage to an auto recycler or a rebuilder and given a salvage title. Are All Salvage Titles Bad? No, They aren't. Thats just like saying all Clean Title cars are good. There are alot of salvage titles cars out there that have little to no damage due to theft recovery, or since insurance companies won't use aftermarket parts and need to use brand new factory parts. If those factory parts are on back order, they aren't going to wait weeks or months until they can get those parts again. So something as simple as damage to a 01-06 GMC Yukon Denali front impact bumper that costs $300 new, that totaled out about 100 trucks last year because of the GM bankruptcy that shut down the manufacturing of those bumpers. Thus no one could get that part so insurance companies just totaled them all out rather then to wait the 6 months to get a new bumper. Are All Clean Titles Cars Accident Free? No, Most of you have probly been in an accident at one point or another. If your accident was a deer hit, most of the time that is repairable. Your local body shop made the repairs and you were good to go. However no one will ever know and it wasn't marked on your title. It still may have been a great car after that, but just like salvage title cars, they can be great and hassle free for years after the repairs have been made. In another example, if you had a newer car, and you didn't have full coverage insurance and you drove your car into a local lake, ditch, hit a tree, another car, ect. You would have some damage that you might not have taken to a body shop and had the repairs done correctly. Thus passing on future possible issues to a new owner. The truth is, that you don't know what or where a car has been unless you bought it brand new. And as you know, buying brand new will cost you a lot more then buying used. So even if the worst case happens and you buy a salvage title car that you know has been in an accident, you know what you are buying and you are paying less for that. So even if something happens to the motor, transmission, battery, tires, ect. You saved thousands by buying a salvage title over buying a used car with a clear title and that savings will likely cover the cost of the repairs. The truth is any car either brand new, used, or salvage title can break down at any given time. We take pride in our cars and do our best to make our customers happy with their purchase.
