What Is CARFAX® Used For? 

CARFAX® is a company that maintains a large database of information on vehicles currently on the road in the United States. The company is most famous for its CARFAX® vehicle history reports, which provide information to dealerships and car owners about pre-owned models before they've been sold. It ensures that drivers know everything about their used car options before they sign the paperwork to own one. 

What's on a CARFAX® Report? 

There are several elements present on a CARFAX® report that inform you about the vehicle's service and operational history. You'll get a report on the previous owners and registrations, including where the car was first sold, everywhere it was registered, and how many people drove it in the past. 

This report also provides information about the car's mechanical history, such as vital service visits and routine maintenance. CARFAX® can tell you whether the previous drivers kept up with regular oil changes and yearly service. You can also get information on any major repairs that were performed on your car.

Getting an up-to-date CARFAX® report on your vehicle is simple when you purchase from one of our MileOne Autogoup dealerships. We provide a complimentary CARFAX® report on every pre-owned model, so you can learn everything there is to know about your vehicle.
