We live in Arizona were looking to purchase a 2014 Ford Fusion. We found one for sale by owner on Craigslist. When we called and asked about the car, why such low mileage, why are you selling soon, we were given a sad story of getting a divorce and the car we just purchased must go. A tale of how much they loved the car, how great a car it was and how they really hated to sell it. Feeling bad that anyone has to experience divorce, yet convinced this was a legitimate story, we were excited to go investigate purchasing this. So excited we brought a check, transferring money, to leave a deposit. Upon arriving, the car was immaculate. perfect condition and fully loaded. And at an excellent price to boot. Runs perfect and clean like new. So I write down the VIN number while my wife is talking with the owner and log into CarFax to run the report. Well, low and behold, the vehicle was a lease and recently, 2 months ago, purchased at auction. And this "owner" was not even registered yet. But wait it gets even better. The CarFax report shows a rear end accident while registered to the rental agency in California. Mind you we are in Arizona. OK, not only an accident, but now I look real close and it doesn't even have the correct rear bumper on it. and it is out of alignment with the rear fenders. And of course our seller is now speechless. Claims to not have been aware of any of this. Shocked. We said our goodbyes and I emailed him a copy of the report. Perhaps he can tell the truth to the next buyer. THANK YOU very much CARFAX!!!!!!!!!
