...snip... all vehicles are not reported to CarFax, and as you've seen in previous posts, they may or may not be accurate, so what good are they. :h
Because things like state registration and miles are reported (under 100K). Change of title name is. Anything that the state requires to legally license the car is. Just about any reported insurance claim will also be.
Now can you go to many shops and pay cash for repairs without being logged, of course you can. But if you get a Carfax on a 10 year old vehicle that has had 15 owner changes, two auctions, all occurring in three different states that also reports zero accidents but a magnetic will not stick to the lower door panel, and is barely over 100K miles with a worn brake peddle. Well guess what Forrest, that vehicle is going to be just like a box of chocolates.
Who knows maybe the ones trying to scare people off of Carfax are also the ones selling the chocolates.
