Vehicle Pick-up Instructions -  Release & Pick-up of your Purchased Vehicle

 When your winning auction ends, you will receive an email copy of your invoice.  Check your invoice carefully to verify that your contact information and the vehicle(s) listed is/are correct.  Please make sure that the phone number we have on file (contained in your invoice email) is correct.

 You will receive another email with a signed paid-in-full invoice once your payment has been made to and processed by Surplus Property. This email will detail the contact information and instructions required to complete the sale and release of your vehicle.

 Titles for vehicles ten (10) years or older will be mailed to you once payment is received. For vehicles newer than ten (10) years old, those titles will be mailed to the vehicle site.  You will be contacted to schedule the pick-up of the unit once the site receives the title.  Please contact DOV License & Title at (217) 782-2536, extension 221 to check on title status.

Do not contact the site before you receive our email containing your signed invoice.

Do not go to the site to pick up your purchase without the title, unless directed to do so by Surplus Property or DOV License & Title.  You will not be allowed to remove the vehicle, without the assigned title and a signed paid invoice.

 CMS Surplus property will allow sufficient time to pick-up your vehicle after the title is mailed to you or the vehicle site; however, you must remove the vehicle in a timely manner.  If you anticipate a delay in removing your purchased vehicle(s), you must contact Rick Pritchard at CMS Surplus Property to make mutually agreeable removal arrangements. If this is not accomplished, the vehicle may be considered "abandoned property", and will be treated as such, up to and possibly including utilizing a tow-away service.   All costs charged by the tow-away service for the removal of the "abandoned property" will be the responsibility of the vehicle's new owner.

This unit is a retired government vehicle and perception of the overall condition of the vehicle should be based on that knowledge.

All options may not work. Small dents scratches may not appear in pictures. Condition of brakes, steering and suspension are unknown.

-WARNING-

VEHICLES SOLD BY THE STATE OF ILLINOIS ARE SOLD “AS IS,” “WHERE IS” AND NO WARRANTIES,  WHETHER EXPRESS, STATUTORY OR IMPLIED INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MECHANTABILITY AND THE IMPLIED WARRANTY OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, BOTH OF WHICH ARE HEREBY EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMED BY BUYER.  NO EMPLOYEE, AGENT OR REPRESENTATIVE OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS IS AUTHORIZED TO GRANT ANY WARRANTY OF ANY TYPE WHATSOEVER OR TO MODIFY THE TERMS OF THIS DISCLAIMER IN ANY MANNER.

Many Illinois State Police vehicles being offered were equipped with an after-market air bag switch. The National Highway Transportation Safety Administration (NHTSA) approved the State's request to install air-bag switches for certain vehicles owned by the State of Illinois and operated by the Illinois State Police.  The air bag switches remain active due to the safety benefits provided by air bag switches to the vast majority of drivers.

Purchasers of used vehicles sold by the State of Illinois are cautioned, admonished, encouraged and advised to have the air-bag safety unit inspected prior to operation. All Purchasers are further cautioned that they are solely responsible for conforming to the requirements of any applicable and lawful ordinance, rule or statute governing the resale of vehicles purchased from the State of Illinois.

Air Bag Safety Tips

• Find out if the vehicle has been recalled for safety problems. That information is available on The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's (NHTSA) Web site: http://www.nhtsa.dot.gov/;

• Check the vehicle's crash test results with the Insurance Institute For Highway Safety (IIHS). The web site is: http://www.iihs.org/. The IIHS is a nonprofit research and communications group funded by auto insurers. You can also find crash test results and other information on  NHTSA's Web site;

• Check for signs of previous damage, including mold, paint that doesn't match the rest of the vehicle, frayed safety belts, fenders and doors that don't align, silt in the trunk, and uneven tire tread;

• Check the airbag indicator light on the dash board. (It's sometimes marked "SRS" for supplemental restraint system). If the light doesn't come on, it could mean the airbag system isn't working. Car experts say the airbag warning light in most vehicles comes on when you start the car and stays on for a few seconds. If the light stays on longer, there could be a problem with the airbag system.

• Inspect the airbag cover to be sure it's original and not a replacement. Most original covers are marked "SRS" or "S/R".
