“Carfax assisted my son and I with his very first car purchase. It showed us the transfer of ownership to various parties and maintenance records on a 2000 Toyota Camry, and using this information we were able to make a wise decision on it's purchase.”

“Carfax is a tool to use when buying a car. It used with other factors and some good ole common sense can help immensely. If you're not using Carfax when considering the purchase of an automobile, you prob shouldn't be buying that automobile”

“I was looking at a 2002 Mustang GT with only 126,000 miles, the seller dropped the price by $1000 and so that made me wonder as I had just come from a terrible ordeal with my previous car on which I should have done a Carfax report. Therefore I got a Carfax report and much to my delight no accidents, no damage, fully serviced, and worth about $1250 above retail book value. Thanks to Carfax I was able to buy this car with complete piece of mind.”

“Using Carfax helped to confirm the other due diligence I completed. It essentially helps to verify what a used car seller is saying, and whether their story checks out. It's fantastic to have this third party verification available, and highly recommend using Carfax for any used car purchase.”

“The requirements for the perfect car were rear wheel drive, manual, and decent engine. I found this package in an Infiniti g35 coup. I was ready after a long search to pull the trigger because it looked immaculate inside and out. A last minute check of carfax revealed it had been declared a total loss and had a salvage title. I inquired as to the discovery and never heard back. Saved me a fortune!”

“I listed my car for sale, it went unsold for 1 month , but as soon as I bought and downloaded the carfax report not only did I sell the Tahoe, got more than book value for it, that does not happen if I dont get the report from carfax.”

“My old 1999 car died on the highway and I needed a replacement fast. Hopefully the same model if I could find one. I searched on Craigslist and saw several but nothing worth following, On the third day a gem popped up, but it really seemed to good to be true. A 2001, exactly the same model and only 19500 miles with a price of $2000. The VIN was listed so I signed up for CARFAX and ran the number. It checked perfectly so I dashed over to the location and bought the car after a quick drive around the block. The little old lady selling the car was glad to get rid of it and I've been smiling ever since. It is a gem and friends and family are asking if I can do the same for them. Maybe, but only if CARFAX says it's OK.”

“Was looking to buy a car for the first time in 13 years! Was in the market for a used car but didn't know who to trust. Well I knew I could trust CarFax. After all I wasn't buying the car from them and they are well respected and independent. I narrowed my search and eliminated several cars using CarFax Almost bought a car from someone who showed me a CarFax competitor fact sheet. When I checked it against the CarFax information I realized he was not being truthful. I finally bought my 2006 Toyota Avalon from a company who advertised CarFax and I am completely satisfied!!”

“I had leased 3 cars and had averaged 15k miles a car so after 9 years and 45k miles I realized a good used car was the smartest way to go. After using carfax on 3 jeep compass' I decided on an 2011 because the records were very well kept and had no issues. I probably saved myself over $7,000 by buying used and using carfax since I don't put any miles on my car.”

“I was looking to purchase a newer car off Kijiji and found 2 that i was very interested in. The price on both was about 2000.00 less than what dealers wanted for the same vehicle on the lots so i figured just to be safe i would run a carfax on both. One turned up as a total write off rebuild but was not listed as such and i contacted Kijiji and they had the add pulled and the seller relisted it as a write off rebuild when he relisted it so i saved someone else from getting a dud. The second one came up A-ok and i purchased it and have put 60,000 kms on it with only doing minor maintenance. Good thing i used carfax and I have advised every one that asked me about purchasing a used vehicle to do the same and have had many thank you's because of that advice.”

“Obviously you will check CARFAX for every automobile that you look at, but CARFAX has other awesome features. One of these has a list of cars that have already been ran through CARFAX's check lists and this is how I purchased my car, without regret. I would clearly recommend it to anybody, it's definitely the best guide or gauge for car buyers.”
