Most common scams in the UAE used-car market
8 min read
Top scams we expose:
1) Rebuilt total-loss cars sold as 'clean'. 2) Odometer rollback before sale. 3) Full respray to hide side-impact accidents. 4) Counterfeit parts replacing OEM (filters, gaskets, belts). 5) Flood/sea-water cars dried and resold. 6) Temporary DTC reset before the listing. 7) Fake airbags installed post-accident. 8) Stolen or financed cars.
Professional pre-purchase inspection + official document checks = full protection.
