I was in the market for a collector car, a 1989 20th Anniversary Pontiac Turbo Trans Am, one of 1550 produced. I traveled 9 hours close to 600 miles (Chicago) to check this car out. Upon looking at the 2 owner car, which listed 22k miles on the odometer, I just didn't feel right about it. I had my wife at home run a Carfax on it instead of just going by what the seller had told me before I left. Come to find out this car had over 207,000 miles on it and over 5 previous owners, and had several issues with the car throughout its life. I then called the dealer from my hotel room and said that I couldn't do the purchase because of what I had found out. He was very surprised by what I had told him and actually tried to explain them off as "errors" on the report! Carfax saved me from making a $23000 mistake. I found another car in St Louis the next morning and had my wife run a Carfax on that one. It all checked out. A real 2 owner car. I headed to St Louis and looked at the car. Everything check out as stated. I bought the car and had it shipped to my home within the next few days. I am so glad I had Carfax! I have used them several times since and had great luck! Thank you Carfax for being there!

I looked at two trucks from a reputable dealer and suspected something wasn't quite right and CARFAX helped me prove it. The first was supposed to be perfect but had been totaled. The second was only 6 years old and supposedly had a broken odometer, but CARFAX showed that it really did have more than 500K miles on it. I'm so glad I checked the CARFAX!!

CARFAX helped me find out the vehicle I was looking at had more miles on it than the odometer said. The trucks odometer said it had 110k miles, but it actually had 290k miles

Needing to replace a very old car, I went to Carfax as one tool to be sure the one I was considering was one I could feel safe buying. The info I found told me what I needed to know before I even test drove the vehicle. With that and several other searches into the make, year and model, I purchased the 2007 Colorado two months ago and have so far been happy with the decision.

I used carfax to run a report on a car I wanted to buy at an estate auction. The car had no keys with it, so nobody knew the miles on it. I ran the carfax report beforehand and estimated mileage. It was lower than anybody else estimated. I bought $5000 cheaper than book value. Thank you Carfax.

I recently pulled a CarFax report on a car I was preparing to buy. The report reflected that the car had been in a minor front end accident. I took the car to my mechanic before the purchase and asked him to focus on possible front end problems. It turns out that the accident had been minor and the repair done well. I ultimately used the CarFax report to negotiate the price and saved 15% on my used car purchase! Thanks CarFax! Curt Wiggins Winter Springs, Florida

Thanks to carfax, my 80 year old cousin did not make a huge mistake. She wanted to purchase a 2003 Buick Park Avenue from her mechanic in Walhala, SC, whom she trusted. Because I was her family advisor on major purchases, I asked her to send me the ViN number, which I then entered into Carfax. To my dismay, the car was "redflagged" as salvaged. I told her do NOT buy that car and inform this guy that he was no longer her mechanic, as he was a "low-scum" trying to take advantage of a senior citizen on a fixed income. I used Carfax again to help find her a clean car. She is now driving a dependable 2006 Chevrolet Impala, which she loves! Thanks Carfax for saving the day! Rob (678 451-0092)

It's quick and easy to use on the spot, because that is what you need when your out looking for cars. It saved me a lot of trouble because I found some cars that turned out to be lemons. And it's worth the price, because you don't want a lemon! I was going to buy a car I checked out. I had pulled the cash out of the bank and was ready. Now this was a car I had already looked at, it was only a 2011 so figured it would be okay. I decided to run a car fax report on it when I got there and I found out that the cars odometer had been rolled back over 150,000 miles. I was very greatful to have dodged that bullet. I had a backup already planned so I went to the next place and ran a car fax report on that car and it checked out so I bought it! If you buy a used car then get car fax!

I used car fax to gain information about the car I have now purchased. All information needed to make a wise choice in my car purchase. I will use car fax again when I purchase my next vehicle.

We used Carfax to help our daughter pick out a car. Since we live far away from her, it was hard not being to help her shop and test drive cars. By using Carfax we felt like we got to be part of the process in making the best decision possible!
