I think CarFax is very good. I had some issue with misunderstanding of the terms after I paid subscription but it was resolved very quick and I got clarification and bonus. It was really nice: question - quick answer with detailed explanation. I'll definitely will use CarFax in future, probably, in near future, because I need to buy another car and report is very helpful.

I used CarFax to check on the used car history. I find that it makes more comfortable knowing the background of the cars before buying or making a trip to see the car. It's easy to use and it's totally worth the money to invest when comes to car buying.

Its awesome to know a company like Carfax is out there in today's times when checking on used cars. Knowing if the car your will spend thousands of dollars on is really the car to buy - with knowing if it was really a one owner car and had no accidents or major problems! Too many con artists to have to worry about or be concerned with and that is I will always will first check with Carfax. Great job guys, Larry Marcus

Hi purchased a 94 Toyota 4 runner after searching the Car Fax online for this vehicle. I was impressed with the full history of the vehicle and how many owners as well as dealerships had it. It allowed my to inquire on the maintenance history, track and pin point the recommendations on all future repairs. I am very happy with my purchase.. Thanks Car Fax!!! Yvonne

It's very convenient and easy to check car condition through putting VIN number. Best choice to buy a car.

We were meeting a potential seller to look at the ML320 we wanted to buy at a shopping center near his house. We didn't know the car ID before we met him and we able to run the CARFAX right there as we had coffee to discuss the deal. We then knew the car was clean and made the deal right on the spot. Much thanks to you for helping us buy this beauty!

Carfax's detailed vehicle history report helped us in our recent search for a hatchback. The one Nissan Versa we looked at Carfax showed it had been involved in two accidents. On the Mazda 3 we bought, it was reported as never been involved in an accident. Additionally, one can see some maintenance records listed as well. To summarize, if you are going to spend 5k or more or a car, then spending 1 percent of that on a vehicle history report just makes sense.

From previous damage of car purchasing, I decided to check my next purchase through CARFAX. It showed multiple owners (2) within a month. the second owner had it for LESS than a few weeks before it was sold at an auction. That was my red flag. I didn't go with my gut about this car and bought it anyway. I regret not listening to the CARFAX report, because now my car won't pass emissions without $800 worth of work, and my drive belt has snapped leaving me and my kids stranded without a car. (both are not working now) On top of the $800 worth of work, I now have a possible $500-$1,500 quoted bill to fix the ac compressor. CARFAX WAS RIGHT ABOUT THIS CAR AND I DIDN'T LISTEN! It was a to good to be true moment, as I needed transport right away for my kids. Thank you CARFAX for the warning.

I was looking at two 2009 Honda Accords both with apparently clean titles, one had 90K miles for $12K and the other had 54K for $9K. The second one seemed like a better deal. However, I CARFAX'd both vehicles and I found out the first one had an impeccable dealer-serviced service record! Whereas the second one was involved in an accident in another state that was wiped during interstate transfer. So, I decided to pay more for peace of mind, thanks to CARFAX!

I don't use carfax to buy! I use carfax to sell my cars. People are all scretchy these days buying used cars and wondering if they are about to buy a piece of ( lemon)! . Well when I hand people a copy of the carfax on the car in question their attitude does a full 180 , because now they hold in their hands to full history and truth of the car!! Thank you carfax for helping me sell my cars.

Carfax helped me find my dream car- a 2010 Cadillac SRX and it had a clean report. During the process carfax helped me make the right decision by allowing me to view a cars report prior to test driving it. Carfax gives you the reassurance in purchasing a clean and great ride.

I was searching the internet for a 2014 BMW 535i M Sport when I located one at Luxury Auto Xchange in Chicago that seemed too good to be true. The car was equipped exactly like I wanted and the extremely low mileage made it even more attractive. At that point, I ran a Carfax in an effort to verify the mileage and check the overall condition of the vehicle. When I got the Carfax report I was delighted to see that the stated mileage was accurate and there were no other issues with the vehicle that gave me concern. Long story short, the clean Carfax report gave me the confidence to finalize the purchase. I have now owned the car for a little over a month and I couldn't be more pleased. The clean Carfax report was the key to the whole deal!

Carfax helped me find my first car. At the dealer I was afraid to buy it because of all the miles on it, but when I looked it up on Carfax I learned that it had been well maintained and only been used for highway miles. I'm so glad I checked and was able to get such a good deal!

If I didn't have carfax, I never would have found my car. A one-owner used car is the single most important factor in buying a used car for me, so carfax was invaluable. Worth every penny of the service. Thank you!

My CARFAX story is not exciting. I didn't discover an undisclosed issue or anything that saved me from disaster. What I did do was, for about $50, get third party verification of the story the seller was telling me. Armed with the CARFAX report I was confident enough to travel from Wilson,NC to Savannah, GA and spend $17,250 with a total stranger. We could not be happier with our purchases -the car and the CARFAX report.

I recently purchased a 2002 Mercedes S430 for a real good deal, I was concerned that the good deal was due to something being wrong with the car (accidents). To my surprise when I pulled the car fax, I was pleased to see there were no accidents, BUT on top of that the car fax showd the car was serviced at a Mercedes dealership the whole time. There were a couple of Mom and Pop Mercedes repair shops that were used for minor repairs that showed up on the list as well. Very pleased with the level of service that was provided.

The information you furnished was more than the dealer had told me, all though I did not ask to see the Carfax, I paid to get a new one and found it was in more than one accident, and from little things I find it makes you wonder if everything that has happened to the vechicule has been turned to Car fax
