CARFAX
CARFAX is the pioneer of the vehicle history report. CARFAX has surpassed the three billion mark in its online database of unique vehicle history records. Each data record is associated with a specific vehicle, identified by a unique 17-character vehicle identification number (VIN).
Buyers and sellers of used cars use these pieces of information to learn more about a car’s past that may include routine maintenance and odometer readings or uncover department of motor vehicle reported incidents including prior salvage records, flood damage, or other branded titles.
More than one thousand government and law enforcement organizations that fight vehicle theft and fraud rely on the information in these reports.
The Vehicle History Service, the most comprehensive collection of used vehicle information ever assembled, can confirm a clean title history or may help purchasers identify previous salvage history, odometer fraud, flood damage or other incidents in a car’s past. CARFAX provides used car buyers with more than 3 billion vehicle history records in their database. Vehicle History Reports are also available at participating auto dealers.
CARFAX Vehicle History Reports that do not reveal DMV-reported incidents (salvage, fire, flood damage, odometer problems, lemon history) may be eligible for the “Buyback” guarantee.
