Before buying a car make sure to do a car search

Do a car search on the Personal Property Securities Register (PPSR.gov.au) for a few dollars to see if the used car is ‘free from debt’, reported as a stolen car or written off. You don’t want a finance company repossessing the car you just bought.

Make sure the car you bought matches the paperwork for the sale of the car.

You need to check the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) found on the car body is the same as the one on the paperwork.

Ask the dealer to show you where the VIN is. Check there isn’t any scratches or damage to the ID plates.

• Refer you to our solicitors to provide free legal advice if debts were taken out in your name or if you were forced into a debt you did not want or could not afford in the first place.

If you or someone you know is going through financial abuse, you can ask for help.

What matters is whether you are controlled or feel afraid because of this behaviour.

If you or someone you know is going through financial abuse, you can ask for help.
