What does ROLLOVER mean?

The car rolled over: damage to the roof, pillars and sides.

What it means

ROLLOVER means the car turned over onto its side or roof. Typical damage: crushed roof, bent pillars, broken glass, damage on both sides and often deployed curtain airbags. The body structure is usually compromised.

What it means for a buyer

A proper repair means replacing structural parts; many rollovers end up as parts cars. Check whether the title is nonrepairable and look closely at the roof line and windshield frame in the photos. Airbag, glass and roof costs add up quickly.
