Check Out a Used Car (continued)

Step 6: Check the shock absorbers and lights

Walking around to each corner of the car, bounce the car up and down several times. When you release it, you should feel the car bounce back twice. Good shock absorbers will have no more than two bounces in them. More bounces mean shock absorber replacement.
Test all lights: brakelights, headlights and reverse lights. Do this before you take the car out. Also test the horn and turn signals.
