Import Tips

Obtain detailed vehicle history report (e.g

Carfax equivalent) to prove used status and avoid reclassification as new under statistical notes

Comply with Clean Air Act modifications for diesel engines; prepare for potential CBP inspection of hybrid battery and charging systems

Declare accurate cylinder capacity via engine specs; pitfall is overlooking statistical suffixes for precise reporting
