It’s
a concern that every used car buyer has anytime they start looking at
vehicles: What if this car has previously been involved in a serious
accident or collision? Until now, the only way to find out was to rely
on a service like CarFax, but even that was not 100 percent accurate
because it relies only on data provided by insurance companies and auto
dealers.
That’s
the core problem that the new Accident Scan app, now available at the
App Store for iPhone and iPad users, is able to solve for used car
buyers. Using the Accident Scan app, it’s possible to detect possible
signs of serious repairs or collisions within minutes. And those minutes
could save you thousands on the final purchase.
Simply
stated, the Accident Scan app is the best way to find out if a used
vehicle has been in an accident. It’s fast, it’s convenient, and it has
unrivalled accuracy. With the information that the Accident Scan app
reveals, you’ll be in a much stronger negotiating position the next time
you step onto a user car dealer lot.
The
power of the Accident Scan app comes from its ability to tap into the
powerful camera on the iPhone. By taking pictures of the vehicle from
just one inch away, it’s possible to detect slight variations in paint,
as well as other irregularities. The app, using a proprietary algorithm,
is then able to determine whether those irregularities are due to
normal wear-and-tear, or whether they are the result of a collision or
accident that hasn’t been reported to an insurance company.
As
any auto body shop owner will tell you, one of the most common
misperceptions among used car buyers is that every incident is
automatically reported to dealers and insurance companies. But that’s
not always the case. Not all accidents go through insurance claims.
Trained
auto repair professionals use the same method that the Accident Scan
app uses – they check out the paint job of a vehicle for tell-tale signs
of an accident. And the Accident Scan app can pinpoint signs of an
accident within minutes. That means you won’t miss any potentially
serious accidents or repairs.
In
fact, the Accident Scan app is so powerful that it boasts a 97 percent
accuracy rate. Even better, the cost of downloading the Accident Scan
app is cheaper than ordering a CarFax report. So you’re getting an
affordable, quick and convenient way to eliminate the risk of buying a
used car, all in the power of a smartphone app that you can take
everywhere.
So the next time you’re looking to buy a used car – take control of the process. Instead of worrying that you might be missing a crucial part of the information about a used vehicle, you’ll have the peace of mind of knowing that you have a complete set of information. That makes you a smarter buyer, and it also makes you a more autonomous buyer. You’re no longer dependent on insurance reports for your information. In short, the new Accident Scan app is the best way to find out if a car has been in an accident.
