Partial or total theft are not covered by any insurance (which means that you're 100% responsible if battery or any car part is stolen).

Never accept a vehicle without taking a deep look to every part of it, take photos and video always so you can have an evidence of the condition, read the contract, verify insurance terms and after all that you can proceed to sign contract, once you sign you're responsible for the vehicle and you agree with the condition. Cars are not new sometimes but they are well taken care we do our best.
