Title Washing - How Does It Work
Dealers and individuals use title washing to remove salvage branding from car titles and to minimize their losses. Typically they transfer a salvaged vehicle to a state that doesn’t recognize the brand and the titles are washed. You can never know that the vehicle had been salvaged after the state issues a new title. Another way is moving the vehicle from state to state until the branding is gone. When it is, the vehicle’s history will have been “washed” clean.
