Yes, any condition that caused the car to be totaled by an insurance company could cause it to have a salvaged title. A good hailstorm can do thousands of dollars of cosmetic damage resulting in a salvaged title.

Are cars with a salvaged title unsafe?
The salvage title is used to title a vehicle that has been paid out by an insurance company. This may be because professional repairs exceed 75% of the value of the car or may be because the car was stolen and not returned within the time required by law such that the insurance company must pay out the total value. Depending on the age of the car a salvaged car may have had no damage, very minor cosmetic damage, or major damage. A vehicle that is considered not repairable is instead titled as "junked".
Salvaged title finance in california. Is it law in California that a car having a salvaged title can not be financed through a banking or credit union Stuck in a rut?
There is no law against financing Salvaged Titles. It is just that most banks and credit unioins chose not to finance these vehicles. The problem is that there can be liability if the vehicle is for whatever reason unsafe, and you sometimes do not know why a vehicle was salvaged. It could be because of frame damage or other serious damage, or it could be for water damage (i.e., Katrina), or it could be that it was just stripped by a theif, and has been rebuilt and is perfectly good, but since it was totaled by the insurance company, it is "salvaged". Some lenders will lend against a salvaged title. But they will take off 40% of the value of the vehicle due to salvaged title. So if the vehicle is worth $10,000 as a regular title, a salvaged vehicle will be worth about $6,000. I believe SafeCo might be a source for insurance. Car Cash Loans in Los Angeles (www.CarCashAuto.com) will lend against salvaged titles, according to their representatives.

Does a salvaged title indicate that the car was stolen?
It means that the car has been wrecked and rebuilt. The following eleven states also use Salvage titles to identify stolen vehicles - AZ, FL, GA, IL, MD, MN, NJ, NM, NY, OK and OR. So, in these states a "Salvaged" Title could mean it was wrecked and totalled or it could also mean that it was just stolen. Also, to clarify, no damage at all has to ocur while being stolen for it to receive the "Salvaged" title. Be leery though. Sellers could use the "stolen" excuse for a title to have Salvaged on it, but in reality it was really totalled.

Can you put full coverage insurance on a car with a salvage title car in Minnesota?
On every auto application, there is a question will ask: "Does the vehicle have a salvaged or branded title?" If this is the case, you will not be able to put full coverage, (comprehensive and collision coverage) on the vehicle. Sometime you can get special exceptions from your insurance carrier to get the full coverage put on if all damage was repaired. It is much harder to get full coverage on a salvaged title vehicle.
