WHAT TO KNOW WHEN BUYING A USED
CAR FROM A DEALERSHIP

INTRODUCTION

Buying a used car can be a very stressful process – however, here at Bill Luke Santan, we want to alleviate as much of the headache as possible. Before purchasing a vehicle, it is important to do some research and know what your vehicle needs are. In order to help make this process easier for you, we have curated a list of what to know when buying a used car from a dealership. 

WHAT TO KNOW

  1. The first step in buying any car is identifying your vehicle needs. Having children or pets that you frequently travel with may make your needs different than the needs of one person or a couple purchasing a vehicle. Examples of needs are listed below:
  • Spacious trunk 
  • Gas mileage 
  • Third row seating
  • Automatic or manual transmission
  • Reliability



2. Next, it is important to know your budget and whether or not there is any flexibility within that for you. Match up your needs with your budget to see what you can afford, and see what matters most on your car wish list.

 

 

3. Visit our website to look at the used vehicles we have on the lot. Make a list of your top 3 and do a little research on each vehicle. The more research you do beforehand, the more confident and comfortable you will feel driving off of the lot. At Bill Luke Santan our vehicles go through specific checkpoints in order to offer full transparency to our valued customers. Bill Luke Santan’s Certified Pre Owned vehicles offer added protection, next level reconditioning, and an additional warranty coverage on select vehicles. Look for the Bill Luke Certified sticker!

4. Come down to Bill Luke Santan and let one of our expert salespersons go through the buyer’s guide on the vehicle with you. To speed up the process, you can add our VIP experience or VIP Appointment.

5. Take your options for a test ride! It is important that you enjoy the way the vehicle drives and that you feel comfortable. Be sure to inspect the interior and exterior of the vehicle. 

6. Know what kind of warranty the vehicle comes with. If it comes with one, make sure you keep the paperwork.
