Buyer Beware: Watching out for flood-damaged vehicles from Hurricane Ian arriving in Pa.

[yortsed snacilbuper]

As the cleanup from Hurricane Ian continues in Florida and in the Carolinas, people here in Western Pennsylvania looking at purchasing a used car should do so with caution.

In the tight used car market, flood-damaged vehicles from Ian's path may end up on a car lot near you.

While one might not think that a used car sold here could be damaged goods from a hurricane, our very distance from the storm makes us prime targets and you don't want one of these cars.

It's estimated that around 358,000 vehicles were damaged between Florida and the Carolinas in Hurricane Ian.

"They might look fine and dry the day you take them home, but they are literally rotting from the inside out,"
