Junk Cars Shipped South

As we all know by now, new automobile production is a major industry in Mexico. Another large trend is the market for “fast cash for cars”, even old used cars among Mexicans. The used vehicle market is very strong in Mexico, particularly due to the overall low income of its residents. Here at Barberton Junk Cars, a NE Ohio junk car removal outfit, we find this trend to be interesting as used vehicle dealers in Mexico are loudly exclaiming “we buy junk cars”. On March 29, 2015 Tim Johnson of toledoblade.com composed an article titled ‘Droves of used autos trucked in from U.S., tight credit add to drag’, with the following notes: “Every day, Mexico’s auto industry churns out shiny vehicles and puts them on rail cars to cross the border bound for U.S. showrooms. Every day, similar traffic rolls in the other direction: thousands of used cars. Those 2 traffic flows have set off a battle in Mexico that has spiraled into a fight over patriotism & global warming, with arguments laden with phrases like “junkyard cars” and “garbage vehicles.” At issue is that despite Mexico’s powerful and surging auto industry, the domestic market for new cars is weak. What is robust in Mexico is the market for used cars. Auto brokers sweep up more than 1,000 discarded or partially wrecked vehicles at U.S. auctions and bring them back across the border to be sold at used car lots. The battle over the imports has escalated to extraordinary levels.

The new-car industry claims the flood of used cars contributes to greenhouse gases, endangers drivers who aren’t notified of safety recalls, and unfairly depresses the price of used cars in Mexico. The used-car industry claims its popularity is because of tight credit rules & high interest rates that put the purchase of new cars out of the reach. When we talk about the ‘lost decade’ in the domestic auto market, this information bears it out,” said Guillermo Prieto Trevino “Studies tell us that Mexico should be selling 1.7 or 1.8 million units [domestically] a year.” Mr. Prieto described the importation of used U.S. cars as a “cancer” wreaking havoc on the Mexican automotive industry and sending pollutants into the air. “A lot of these [used] vehicles are six or eight-cylinder, and when they come in poor condition, the contamination is enormous,” Mr. Prieto said.” The full story is available here: http://www.toledoblade.com/business/2015/03/29/New-car-industry-tries-to-regain-its-muscle-in-Mexico.html#8QBZfA77TW7bCWWf.99
