Roof - Roof are damages to the roof of an automobile. They are less common, but in most cases are serious and dangerous. Roof damage can be the result of the vehicle flipping over, can be the result of heavy objects falling, severe hail damage. How Roof damage affects the condition:
Such damage is difficult to fix without replacing a large part of the body, a lot of work is required to restore the geometry. With serious defects, the car becomes unsafe for passengers in case of future accidents. To determine exactly how damaged the roof is and whether the vehicle can be restored without compromising safety, it is worth contacting an independent expert. At this time, the estimated cost to repair the roof is 1000 USD.
In addition, secondary damage "Water/Flood" is indicated - indicates that the vehicle has been in contact with water. Causes - flooding, heavy rainfall, technical flooding. Water/Flood damage comes in two types. The first is when water just got into the car, for example, if the driver forgot to close the windows or sunroof, it rained at night and the interior was flooded with water. In such damage, the electronics and critical components will not be damaged, but the interior will be ruined. Another option is if the vehicle was partially or completely flooded. In this case, there may be many more problems, and they will be much more serious. Even a short stay in water has a negative impact on the technical condition. How Water/Flood damage affects the condition:
If electronics have been damaged, there is still a high risk of hidden damage and short circuits even after drying.
If a lot at auction has a "Run & Drive" status, it means that the car starts and drives itself, that the transmission shifts into the right gear. That is, at the time of inspection, the engine and transmission were in working order and there were no critical faults. Nevertheless, having a "Run & Drive" status does not guarantee that the vehicle is in good working order. Used cars sold at auction may have hidden defects, problems with brakes, electronics, suspension and other damage that can only be detected by a detailed inspection. There is not even a guarantee that with this status will start and drive when it gets into the hands of the buyer. Breakdowns can happen at any time, and all repair costs will fall entirely on the new owner.
