Check if the vehicle has a deactivated air-bag:

This form allows you to search a database of vehicles, identified by vehicle identification number (VIN), in which one or both air bags have been permanently deactivated. (http://www.nhtsa.dot.gov/airbags/VINs/Find_VIN.html)

Check if the vehicle is a destructively tested vehicle:

A few vehicles are subjected to destructive testing, starting with model year 1996, under the 200 or 300 series of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards or under the New Car Assessment Program. When these vehicles are no longer needed for evaluation purposes, they are made available for sale to the public by the General Services Administration of the government. Because of the nature of the destructive testing, each of these vehicles is sold for "salvage" only, with the transfer document bearing the restriction that the vehicle is not to be titled for use on the road.
