Carfax Cheat
Hey guys, I'm new here! I am looking to buy a cadillac myself
But meanwhile i wanted to share the story that happened to me recently. I hope it'll be of use to you.
I bought a vehicle that had front end damage from a collision, which wasn't disclosed by the seller. And he’d shown me a CARFAX report, which also didn't show any accident records — the car was absolutely clean according to it. However, I ran a report on another website, epicvin.com, and it showed that the car was in an accident and then repaired. I don't know why this information wasn't disclosed by CARFAX, but now I'm aware that CARFAX isn’t a service that can be trusted, and I won't use it again.

Carfax, Auto Check and all similar others are in competition with each other. They do not communicate with one and other.
Happens frequently what happened to you. I see it weekly in cars we sell and buy at the dealer auctions.
It's just a fact of life.
Carfax for instance only reports when there is a police report filed, other rely on insurance reports only and so on....
People who crash their cars and pay out of their own pocket and have no involvement from police or insurance can usually retain a clean CARFAX history on their vehicle.
Key word here is USUALLY.
