Buyer safety guidelines

Buying a used vehicle is a big decision. These steps help you protect yourself — AutoKarZay does not perform any of these checks for you.

Before you meet a seller

• Verify the seller's phone number and, where possible, their identity.
• Ask for the vehicle's registration documents and confirm the name on them.
• Ask about accident history, flood damage, and past repairs in writing.

Before you pay

• Inspect the vehicle in person — never rely on photos or video alone.
• Test drive the vehicle yourself.
• Have an independent, qualified mechanic inspect it before you commit.
• Confirm ownership documents match the seller's ID.
• Meet in a safe, public location for viewings and handovers.

Never send money, a deposit, or personal/financial information to a seller you have not independently verified. AutoKarZay cannot reverse a payment made directly between users.
