If you purchase an auto with a salvage title does that mean the vehicle is no longer road worthy?
It does not mean that the auto is not road-worthy. What it does mean is that the auto has previously been in a wreck and considered totalled by the insurance company. Many times, an insurance company determines it is cheaper to "total" the auto than to pay the costs to repair it. Auto body and repair shops will scout around for later model autos that have been "totalled" and buy them to repair and re-sell. The shops will usually check and make sure that the frame is not bent and that most of the damage is just body damage. Because the auto has been previously "totalled", the title is issued as a salvage title.

A rebuilt salvage title is issued when a vehicle has been declared a total loss. When that happens, the original title is "retired", and the salvage may be sold--often by an insurance company that paid the owner and acquired the salvage. As a way of recovering some of what it paid, the salvage will be sold by the insurer. The buyer of it may then repair the vehicle to make it road-worthy. The repaired vehicle is then issued a rebuilt salvage title in order to be "legalized" and used as a vehicle. The fact that it has a rebuilt salvage title will generally reduce the value of the car, because any buyer will know that the vehicle has at one time been totaled.

When the vehicle is inspected and once again registered a normal title will be issued. === === == The above answer is correct until the last sentence. When a car is in an accident, flooded or sometimes even stolen/recovered (things vary from state to state) and the repairs exceed 75% of the car's value it is totaled and issued a salvage title. Once a car is issued a salvage title it can not legally be made "clean" again, only salvage/reconstructed or totaled/reconstructed depending on how a state words it. Unscrupulous sellers can always find an illegal/unethical away around this but since a reconstructed car(i.e. a salvage car that has been rebuilt to roadworthy standards) is worth 40% less than a comparable clean titled car, buyers need to beware and do their homework with Carfax, VIN and title number checks before they purchase any used car. Otherwise, they will pay too much for what they get. Salvage cars can sometimes be fine purchases, just pay the right price!

Once a salvage title it should remain that way from state to state if sold somewhere else. I have seen a Michigan "clean" titled issued for a Missouri " salvaged" titled vehicle but I think our state department didin't catch it. Carfax and Autocheck reports do show the history of these type of vehicles and there are some that slip thru the cracks of our paperwork society.
