A salvage vehicle is a vehicle that has been wrecked or damaged to such an extent that it is considered too expensive to repair.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"\/portal\/es\/vehicle-registration\/new-registration\/junk-revived-salvage-vehicles\/\">Learn more about salvage vehicles<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dmv.ca.gov\/portal\/es\/handbook\/vehicle-industry-registration-procedures-manual-2\/salvage-nonrepairable-junk-vehicles\/salvage-certificate\/\">Learn how to get a salvage certificate issued for a vehicle<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Be Cautious When Buying a Revived Salvage Vehicle<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A revived salvage is a salvage vehicle that was repaired and reregistered with DMV. Although many salvage vehicles are expertly repaired, some vehicles:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Are not properly repaired or tested and may be dangerous to operate.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Have been repaired with stolen parts. If the California Highway Patrol (CHP) or DMV determines the vehicle or its parts were stolen, the vehicle cannot be registered and the vehicle or parts will be seized.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Identify a Salvage Vehicle<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Inspect the title. <\/strong>The vehicle\u2019s title includes the following information that provide clues to the vehicle&#8217;s history:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><span>Vehicle brand is listed as &#8220;Salvaged.&#8221;<\/span> <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Mileage when the vehicle was last sold.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Vehicle owner.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Sellers, including dealerships, are legally required to disclose a vehicle&#8217;s salvage title and history. However, this law is difficult to enforce, especially when a vehicle comes from another state.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>California&nbsp;licensed dealers must obtain a National Motor Vehicle Title Information System (NMVTIS) report from an approved provider before a used vehicle is offered or displayed for sale. If the NMVTIS used vehicle history report indicates the vehicle is or has been a junk or salvage, or the certificate of title contains a brand, the dealer must post a disclosure statement on the vehicle while it is displayed for sale. The only exceptions are when a dealer attempts to obtain an NMVTIS report but NMVTIS does not have a record for the vehicle, or if the vehicle is a motorcycle, recreational vehicle, or off-highway vehicle subject to identification under CVC \u00a738010.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Inspect the vehicle.<\/strong> Some of the following clues may suggest the vehicle has an undisclosed salvage history:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Signs of major repairs on the inner fender structures.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Mud, mold, or rust under the carpet in the trunk.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Vehicle identification number (VIN) plate attached with materials other than rivets.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Safety restraint light is always on.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Airbag covers are resealed or improperly installed.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) labels (which usually appear on the doors, inside hood, tailgate, and hatchback) are missing.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ways to Protect Yourself<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Be sure the seller is the owner.
