Why Buy A Rebuilt Title?
When most people hear the word “rebuilt title,” they immediately think of accidents, frame damage, or major repairs. But the truth is, not all rebuilt titles come from wrecks, many come from something completely different:
THEFT
At MGM Motors LLC, we specialize in theft-recovery vehicles, a unique category of used cars that can give buyers incredible value with no compromise on quality. On this FAQ page, we’ll explain what theft-recovery vehicles are, why they sometimes end up with rebuilt titles, and how they can save you thousands of dollars on your next purchase.
What Is a Theft-Recovery Vehicle?
A theft-recovery vehicle is exactly what it sounds like:
A car that was stolen, then later found and recovered by law enforcement or insurance.
Here’s the important part:
Many of these vehicles have absolutely no damage.
Often the only reason an insurance company totals them is because:
- They weren’t recovered quickly
- Keys were missing
- Paperwork delays forced the insurer to pay out
- The company followed state rules requiring a payout after a certain number of days
Once the insurance company pays out the claim, the car is marked as a total loss, even if it’s in perfect condition.
Why Does a Theft-Recovery Vehicle Get a Rebuilt Title?
Every state has different rules, but generally:
- Car is stolen.
- Insurance totals it.
- Car is recovered.
- Title is branded as salvage.
- After inspection and verification, it becomes rebuilt.
And again… zero repairs may have been needed.
That’s why these are some of the best-kept secrets in the used car world.
