There's a lot more to getting a good deal on a used Pontiac
than simply negotiating with the car dealer or private seller. Being
prepared, and doing your research and homework can all translate into
money saved in the end on your pre-owned Pontiac.
Used Pontiac cars are
typically less expensive, but have more risk associated with buying. You
should take the pre-owned Pontiac car you would like to buy into a garage for
a mechanic to give it a diagnostic check prior to paying for it. This
check will prevent you from purchasing a "lemon" Pontiac, and is definitely
worth the money.
The Federal Trade Commission’s Used Car Rule
requires dealers to post a Buyers Guide in every used Pontiac car they offer
for sale. The Buyers Guide must tell you:
• whether the used Pontiac is
being sold "as is" or with a warranty
• what percentage of the repair
costs a dealer will pay under the warranty
• that spoken promises are
difficult to enforce
• to get all promises in writing
• to keep the
Buyers Guide for reference after the you buy the Pontiac for sale
• the
major mechanical and electrical systems on the used Pontiac car, including
some of the major problems you should look out for
• to ask to have the
pre-owned Pontiac car inspected by an independent mechanic before you
buy.
When purchasing a used Pontiac
car it's best to have a mechanic look at it. If you don't want to spend
the extra money on the mechanic, check it yourself.
Make sure
everything works in the used Pontiac. Radio, heater, windshield wipers,
cigarette lighter, rear window defogger, and horn. Test the headlights,
taillights, flashers, backup lights, brake lights, turn signals, and
parking lights. Check for proper seatbelt operation.
The Pontiac brakes.
While driving the Pontiac cars at 30 to 40 mph, being certain there is no one
behind you, apply the brakes three or four times. If you get a consistent
pull, either left or right, while the brakes are being applied, there is a
problem with the pre-owned Pontiac.
The Pontiac tires. Check the tread for
depth of wear, the tire sizes for matching, and for any other obvious
damage. All the used Pontiac car tires should be evenly worn. Uneven wear
could mean neglect, abuse, improper wheel alignment or bent front-end
components.
Under the hood. Check all hoses. Examine the battery for
leaks, and check the oil dipstick. If the used Pontiac car has an automatic
transmission, check the transmission fluid to see if it is dark colored or
has a burned odor.
