 * Beware of flood-damaged replacements. Many cars that are totalled due to flooding are simply cleaned up and re-sold. Before buying a used car, have the title checked; words like "salvage" and "flood damage" are giant red flags. Get a comprehensive history on the car, if the car has been moved from another state and re-titled \(especially a state that has been subject to flooding just before the title change\), the seller may be trying to hide flood damage.
