How Would I know if my car was???

I bought my car used. IT is not manual. It is Automatic. How would I know if my car ever was Natural Dropped? I don't know how they treated my car. Is there any way that I could find out if the Pervious Owner beat on the car like that? Please Help If you know.

The problem is, I bought my car from a dealership, and the dealership bought the car from an auction. I called North America Nissan. and they won't give me the number of the person. they have his name and number but they won't give it to me.

try carfax. maybe take your car to a reputable mechanic
or maybe there isnt any way to tell, i dont know. when i got my car the rotors warped about 2 weeks after i got it, called the dealership and they said the warranty only covered powertrain, took it to mechanic, turns out the girl who owned the car before me had a thing for the e-brake, rear rotors where twice as worn as the front.

good luck

20 bucks says she was just st00pid and drove while it was engaged on numerous occasions. I really couldn't see them getting warped from a few ghetto ebrake drifts, or whatever else.
