I was looking for a good used car for my 17 yr old son on craigslist and you wouldn't believe how many scammers there are. Lot of cars have salvage title or rebuilt and with car fax I could tell how many owners there where and for how long they had the car for. About 50% of cars for sale by owner was wanna be used car sales hustler listed "for sale by owners" When I question them using car fax data they either hung up or made stupid excuses like: Oh its by girlfriends car or im just selling it for a friend. CarFax data if used right is a powerful tool to weed out the good cars from the bad

I was looking to purchase a 2009 Prius off Ebay motors. Since the car was fairly local I decided to look at it before I purchased it. I ran a carfax on it and found it was in a rear end collision which the report showed disabled the vehicle. I still went and inspected the car. It was fixed very professionally and had no issues since being repaired. However because of knowing this, the seller reduced the price substantially. I bought the car and am very happy with the purchase. It saved me quite a bit of money.

I was moving to the suburban ny area, as a new driver I knew nothing about cars. I met with with 1 car seller in person after seing his ad online, the car look really good but after checking the Carfax, it was involved in multiple accidents before Then I went back on the search and found a great car that qualified for the Carfax buyback guarantee. ???? my new car!!!

I looked at a lot of cars and this helped me stay away from cars that looked like eye candy, that had problems. I just couldn't believe how they would make a car sound so good to suck you into a trap. Also on most of the cars, the information was plentiful and some a mystery. I love the fact I could look by tag# or VIN. That was very helpful.

Provides a thorough history of the vehicle and purchasing becomes easy with it. Your decision making is directly proportional to the carfax report. Although few things aren't granular, the existing information in the report is still of great importance for any buyer.

By using CARFAX I was able to make the decision between two different cars I was looking at. My decision was based off of many aspects such as the number of owners, and how many miles were documented on each car. CARFAX made me feel so much more secure because I was able to see that neither of the cars had been in accidents and neither had any severe issues that would have caused concern. If I did not use CARFAX I would have been stuck with using my best judgment alone, which would have been a lot riskier. I enjoyed the comfort and reassurance that CARFAX provided me.

Carfax helped me find a car. I had searched but with the help of Carfax I would find out that sometimes people would forget to mention that the car was salvage and presented the car as if it never had been in an accident by the way this included a car dealership. Without Carfax I would have bought a car with issues. Carfax records protected my investment. Thanks.

Hi I have purchased car fax review recently from my experience i have observed that the report you are providing is not updated .I am not sure i might be wrong but i have felt that the report is like 2-3 months old ones. So if its true i hope that you will provide updated report may be not longer that 15 days so that it will be easy to buy a good second hand cars. thank you.

Carfax is a good tool when purchasing a new or used vehicle for the most part the information provided is accurate up until the last buyers purchase it . I do not like that you only get five Vin number checks if you purchase the unlimited went in the past unlimited was unlimited for a longer period of time. Wether by Vin number or tag. I searched for a new vehicle with little luck Carfax did help to identify those vehicles with the rollback mileage which is very common nowadays. And I purchased 2 owner Nissan Armada with accurate mileage and good service history for a great price for the new family . Baby Lucas says ,thanks Carfax !

I recently used Carfax again, this time for a Mercedes C320 4matic wagon. I quickly found out the car had no accidents and no surprises with odometer. I also found out that this car would be a bargain at the price I was looking at. Carfax had helped by a previous Mercedes wagon and again, no surprises there either. You can run multiple cars to help you narrow down the right choice. I will use Carfax on every and any car I'm considering buying.
