if you're seeing those reasons as a car being salvaged, then the seller is not telling you the truth or they are severely downplaying the amount of damage the car had.

none of those things would be a condition that causes a salvage title, it's usually whatever threshold the insurance company set to pay out ACV of the car instead of fixing it... usually when the damage is 60% or higher of ACV of the car.
