The Importance of Carfax

The Importance of Carfax
What is Carfax? Many people exploring the possibility of buying a used car are completely out of the Carfax loop. The truth is, it is the most expanding database of used car accident reports in the country. Their national database of more than a billion vehicles on record is constantly growing, adding more state records from states like Alabama and Louisiana. It already provides accident report data for states such as Arizona, Florida, Idaho, Iowa, Kansas, Massachusetts, Missouri, Maryland, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Ohio, Vermont, Wyoming, and Texas. While many states already issue salvage titles for cars and trucks that have had serious accidents, resulting in critical damage, these issues do not report all of those more minor accidents that could have a future impact in the life of the vehicle? Wouldn't a report of those damages be nice to have before you buy a used car?
So why is it so important to have these records? It is no secret that used car dealers have the reputation of selling cars that have concealed problems. Are you willing to go on the salesman's word that the car you are buying will last as long as you need it to? Even if you do completely trust the salesman, there may be things that even he is not aware of, especially if the dealership does not use Carfax. Finding a dealer that will supply you with the Carfax report adds an incredible sense of security to your used car purchase. Why would you take a risk? Information like flood damage, odometer fraud, and salvage history that might normally be unknown will show up on the Carfax report, allowing the customer to truly make an educated decision on such an important purchase. People everywhere depend on their automobiles to get to their jobs, keep their kids in school, and keep their households running. There is no reason to put all of this at risk and buy from a dealer that will not provide the Carfax report for the vehicle you are considering. There are too many unknown possibilities that could put your entire family at risk.
As you begin your search for a new used car in Austin Texas, find a dealer that will provide you with a full Carfax report so that you can be sure you are making a wise investment decision as well as a good safety decision. Using a dealer that uses Carfax may be the best decision you make in your used car search. So make sure you let the right dealer win your trust by showing you the facts.
