Re: Carfax vin check record
Carfax only works as well as the supporting shops utilize it...if a shop does a repair and doesn't report it it can't show up on Carfax..

Re: Carfax vin check record
The major source of info for CarFax is DMV, Insurance, and Police records. That is where most of their "report" is formed. I have dealt with CarFax reports in my daily job for the last few years. I will say it is a nice thing to see where a vehicle has been owned or if had been wrecked. But not all vehicles that have been wrecked are bad vehicles. And not all that have been wrecked will show on a CarFax. I had a Jetta myself that I totaled. If you ran a CarFax on it you would see one minor rear end incident 3-4 years prior, but nothing else.
