Sterling Heights Insights: Junk Car Values and Trends

In Sterling Heights, we notice that pickup trucks and SUVs continue to be the most common vehicles we buy. Models like the Ford F-150 and Chevrolet Silverado from the early 2010s are still popular because they’re sturdy and useful for work or hauling. We also see a lot of Honda CR-Vs and Toyota RAV4s, especially older ones from around 2008 to 2012. These vehicles are sought after because they tend to be reliable and good on gas. However, many of these older SUVs have issues with worn out suspension parts or failing alternators, which can mean costly repairs. On the other hand, small sedans like the Hyundai Elantra and Toyota Corolla from the same period are also common. These tend to have engine oil leaks or transmission problems after about 120,000 miles, which sometimes makes selling easier than fixing. Recently, we’ve seen more interest in electric and hybrid vehicles like the Toyota Prius, but they are fewer in number, and the repair costs can be higher if they have battery issues. Younger vehicles, under 10 years old, often come with fewer problems but tend to be priced higher. As for older models, many need significant repairs, which can influence the amount people are willing to pay. In Sterling Heights, the trend shows that vehicles with moderate use and manageable repair needs are the most desirable in our purchases now.
