I was all set to purchase a slightly used truck from an out of state dealer for over 40K. A Dealer Auto Check was forwarded to me which stated that this truck was a "One Owner", "Accident Free" vehicle. This major dealership had excellent online reviews so I was ready to commit. At the last minute I decided to run a CARFAX on this vehicle before making the long trek to complete the purchase. Unfortunately, the CARFAX I received on this truck provided a completely different story. "Three Owners" and "One Minor Accident". The CARFAX also stated that this truck had been purchased and driven in Canada until recently when the State of Ohio took possession of it and ultimately put it up for auction. The odometer was converted from kilometers to mph and my assumption was that it might have been involved in some illicit activity. I felt like there was too much history for a truck at this price so I called the dealer and backed out of the deal. I should also mention that the Salesman seemed surprised at my findings so I forwarded him a copy of my CARFAX. Best $30 I have spent in a long time and not the first time that CARFAX has saved me from making a bad deal!!
