I live in Montana. Two years ago I bought a used car from a dealer here that could not provide a CarFax report. At the time of the purchase the dealer was not able find a report on the Internet, nor was I able to find one. Somehow it didn't exist. Since I purchased the car I have been able to find the CarFax report, perhaps by purchase triggered its availability?? What I discovered was the car had been in a debilitating front end collision, which was not disclosed to me. This was discovered after having two years of front end problems with this car. They replaced the transmission multiple times, the engine block as well. I have had numerous electrical issues and failures too. It has been in the shop more than I have been able to drive it. Of course, this would have been clear to me had there been a CarFax report at the time of purchase. Can someone explain to me how this is even possible?? Once a VIN number is established, how can a report go missing?? I’m really disappointed in CarFax for allowing this to happen.
