Type	Description
ACTUAL	The odometer reading is believed to be the true and actual mileage of the lot.
EXEMPT	By Federal Law, no odometer code is required to be displayed for this lot.
NOT ACTUAL	The odometer reading does not correctly reflect the mileage of the lot or it cannot be known.
EXCEEDS MECHANICAL LIMITS	The true mileage of the lot cannot be expressed because it has exceeded the capacity of the odometer to measure it.

What It Means	Facts and Risks
Description	Fact: Damage documented to the left front corner of the vehicle — left fender, front left door, front bumper on left side, left headlight. Causes: side or diagonal collision, obstacle impact, intersection accident.
What to Check in Photos	Determine impact angle and depth: • Center front section condition (plastic, air ducts, hoses) • Fender, door deformation • Headlight, bumper section damage • Gaps between fender and door (sign of fender displacement) • Fender liner (splash guard) condition • Left front pillar condition • Wheel well and suspension Important: If impact was angled left of frame rail (sideswipe) and center section unaffected — this significantly reduces damage scale.
Damage Levels	Light (sideswipe): fender, fender liner, bumper section, headlight. Center section unaffected, plastic and air ducts intact. Door often slightly damaged from fender displacement. Body repair or parts replacement. Medium: door deformation, center front panel section damage — parts replacement. Serious: frame rail, pillar damage — structural damage, frame rack work required. Airbags: Deployment depends on impact angle and force. With direct frame rail impact — high probability of frontal and side airbag deployment. With sideswipe (left of frame rail) airbags often don't deploy.
Expert Recommendations	✓ Assess impact angle: sideswipe (left of frame rail) vs direct frame rail impact. ✓ Check center section: if plastic, air ducts, hoses intact — impact was light. ✓ Study gaps: between fender and door — sign of fender displacement. ✓ Check VIN report: repair history helps assess scale.

What It Means	Facts and Risks
Description	Documented damage to suspension elements - struts, springs, control arms, mounts, hubs. Causes: curb impact, pothole, obstacle impact, accident, wear. Important: If suspension is listed as primary damage, scale is usually significant.
What to Check in Photos	Photo Limitations: Most suspension elements are not visible in static images. Indirect Signs: • Uneven wheel-to-body gap • Visible control arm damage • Wheel well deformation • Undercarriage damage • Signs of bottom impact
Typical Damages for Primary Write-off	If suspension is primary damage: • Replacement of entire front or rear suspension • Subframe (most often damaged) • Drive shafts • Vehicle undercarriage Hidden risks from bottom impact: • Transmission • Engine • Fuel tank • Muffler Important: Even if these elements are not mentioned in description, damage risks exist.
Damage Levels	Light: strut, bushing wear - standard repair. Medium: control arm, spring damage - component replacement. Serious (primary write-off): subframe deformation, undercarriage damage, transmission/engine risks - structural problems and hidden damages.
Expert Recommendations	✓ Study undercarriage photos: bottom impact signs indicate scale. ⚠️ Assess damage scale: if suspension is primary write-off, expect entire front/rear suspension and subframe replacement. ✓ Consider hidden risks: bottom impact may damage transmission, engine, fuel tank. ✓ Check VIN report: history helps understand damage cause. ✓ Run & Drive status: if present, it's a good sign - damages are not critical.

Status	Facts and Risks
Intact (Intact)	Fact: Visually, airbag installation points (steering wheel, dashboard, trim) appear intact. No signs of deployment detected during external inspection. Risk: The inspector does not disassemble the interior. An airbag might be missing (cut out) or replaced with a dummy/resistor under an intact panel.
Deployed (Deployed)	Fact: Deployment of one or more airbags has been recorded. Risk: Carefully study interior photos to identify which specific airbags deployed (steering wheel, curtains, dash). We recommend making your own repair estimate based on visible damage.
Not Verified (Not Verified / Missing)	Fact: Inspector could not access the interior (vehicle locked/no keys) or airbags are dismantled. Risk: Maximum uncertainty. When budgeting, assume the worst-case scenario — complete absence of the safety system.

Metric	Description
ACV (Actual Cash Value)	The estimated market value of the vehicle in the U.S. at the time it was written off by the insurance company. Use: Helps assess the real value of the car before damage.
ERC (Estimated Repair Cost)	The insurer's preliminary estimate of repair costs for the U.S. market. Use: A general indicator for budgeting restoration costs.

Features Specs

Type	Description & Risks
Insurance Company	The most reliable seller type. Vehicles are sold after an insurance claim payout. Usually sold "as is" — without hidden repairs or defect masking before being listed on the insurance auto auction.
Dealer (Reseller)	Sold by an intermediary. Warning: High risk of poor-quality pre-sale repairs (cosmetic cover-ups) to conceal actual damage. An independent inspection is mandatory.
Rental Company	Vehicles from rental fleets. Often repaired at the company's expense (Self-Insured) without being reported to databases. Risk: History reports may show "No Accidents" and a Clean Title, while hiding actual repairs. The price is higher, but the history may be incomplete. Inspection is required.
Not-Insurance (Bank / Private / Other)	Banks, leasing companies, or private parties (Dealer / Reseller). Damage history may not be obvious. A detailed check is recommended; we do not recommend buying without an inspection.

Rate	Coverage
1%	Covers total loss only during transportation. Any new damage that occurs in transit is not covered.
2.5%	Covers total loss and new damage that occurs from the moment the vehicle is accepted at the U.S. warehouse until it arrives at the port of discharge. Deductible: USD 200. Compensation is calculated based on the average market cost of repairs and replacement parts (new or used, depending on the most economically reasonable option). Official dealer pricing is not used.
