Residents affected by the flood

My name is James Magness I am an independent used car dealer in Benton AR. I myself have never experienced devastation of such magnitude as the residence of South Carolina is currently enduring. However I have seen the effect it has on people. My grandparents now deceased retold their memories of the Arkansas flood of 1927 anytime such an event was reported in the news. Yesterday my 96 year old aunt retold that experience almost as if it were tradition. Many of you have lost everything and I m sure facing that must be must be overwhelming. In times like this even the simplest task can be frustrating and confusing. I have extensive experience in all aspects of the automobile business. You are welcome email me with any questions you may have regarding the repair or replacement of a vehicle. Including insurance or warranty concerns. Let me be clear I am not an attorney. But if I can clarify some concerns I d be glad to. I would like offer a few simple thought as you prepare to replace an automobile. Consider buying a vehicle from well outside the area impacted by the flood. I would even go so far as to try to find a vehicle from another state. There are transport companies that specialize in moving automobiles and it s probably not as expensive as you might think. Keep in mind car history reports are only as accurate as the information provided to them. They are valuable in that if a problem has been reported you will know about it before buying the vehicle. However don t assume because there isn t a reported problem that the vehicle is perfect. When vehicles are damaged in such large numbers as in this flood it may take several months before it shows up on a report.
