Buyer Beware: Salvage Title Vehicle Purchase. What you need to know

I have been looking online for a Sprinter van for quite some time. I currently have a 2005 Chevy Express Van 2500 that I use to haul my track car and stay in.

I found an ad on FaceBook Market place for a 2015 Mercedes Sprinter Van 2500 with 244k miles with a salvage/rebuilt title. They van had a king size bed, a second row 3 person seat, and a Coleman Mach rooftop ac unit listed for $21,000.

I made contact and we discussed the following

  • I received the CarFax
  • They said it was totaled because the airbag was deployed
  • Repairs were made by friend
  • Claimed it was rated 6000lbs towing
