Was yours a car to be destroyed?
Supposedly the system is unable to keep up with the post new car delivery requirements of the traded vehicle. If they were truly serviceable cars, does anybody believe they will wind up on the used car lot?

In my case the cost of repairs to get it ready for resale are a lot more than the car would be worth. From what I have read the car does not have to be destroyed but the motor must be seized by a special process making it undriveable. It does not mean the other parts of the car cannot be stripped and sold as salvage by a U Pull It lot.
