Damage sufficient to warrant a salvage title

Comment comment by Brandon on 23 October 2007

One part of the dealer's story that doesn't add up so far is how the car could get a salvage title (i.e., be dubbed as "totaled" by an insurance company) and only have the rear bumper and trunk lid repaired to salvage it. In other words, it seems there would have to be more serious damages the dealer either doesn't know about or isn't telling me about.

Does anyone know of a circumstance in which a salvage title could be issued for only a rear bumper and trunk lid - especially on a car that's 1-2 years old?

In Ohio they will issue a salvage title for autos that have been impounding and not claimed by the owners, the local police departments sell them at auction and issue the salavage title. Probably because of the As Is sale and questionable condition of the cars. Many have been in accidents from pursuits, DUI, ect.....
