Consumer Watch: What to Know Before Buying a Used Car in Nevada

With car prices rising, more people in the Las Vegas Valley are turning to used cars as an affordable option. However, consumer attorneys warn that a "good deal" could end up costing thousands if not careful.

A local resident, Marie Sepian, shared her recent car-buying experience. She thought she had found a great deal on a used 2024 Honda Civic from a small car lot in East Las Vegas. Sepian said,

"This car had 13,200 miles on it and looked in excellent shape. I asked them if it had been in an accident, and he swore there were no accidents."

However, Sepian later discovered that the car had major structural damage, which the dealer had not disclosed. This experience highlights the importance of being cautious when buying a used car.
