Salvage Title Information from Illinois Vehicle Services
Insurance companies paying a total loss claim for a vehicle eight model years of age or newer
must apply for a Salvage Certificate. Abandoned vehicles or vehicles with possessory liens by commercial
relocators that are subsequently sold at public auction can be issued either a Salvage Certificate or
a Junking Certificate. Likewise, a repossessed or fleet vehicle (firm with five or more vehicles) that has
sustained more than 33 1/3 percent damage will be considered salvage. A salvage vehicle can either be
rebuilt by a licensed rebuilder or disposed of as junk. A junk vehicle can be disassembled into parts or
crushed or otherwise disposed of. A vehicle issued a junk certificate of ownership can never receive a
clear title that would allow the vehicle to be registered in Illinois again.
A rebuilt salvage vehicle can be registered upon completion of appropriate inspection (eight model
years or newer). For this to happen, the licensed rebuilder (the only entity who can legally apply) must
take the vehicle to the Secretary of State inspection station and have the vehicle physically inspected
before a REBUILT title can be issued. The purpose of these inspections is to verify the replacement of
any essential parts and to inspect all ownership documents. The inspection is not intended to certify the
safety or road-worthiness of the vehicle or the quality of the workmanship. There is a fee of $94 for each
such inspection. No inspection is required for a vehicle that is nine model years of age or older. The
vehicle must also be inspected by the Department of Transportation and issued a certificate of safety.
