Sample CARFAX® Reports

Every CARFAX Report contains information that can help you make a smarter buying decision about a used car or truck. When you order a CARFAX Report, the report is generated from our database of more than six billion records.

CARFAX receives vehicle history information from more than 20,000 different sources including every U.S. and Canadian provincial motor vehicle agency plus many auto auctions, police and fire departments, and collision repair facilities. In addition to getting a CARFAX Report, before you buy a vehicle we recommend taking a test drive and having the vehicle inspected by a qualified mechanic.

CARFAX® Buyback Guarantee

The Title History section of the CARFAX Report tells if a car has a DMV-issued branded title reflecting salvage, fire or flood damage, and odometer problems. To protect yourself from unknowingly buying a used car with a DMV-issued branded title, look for the CARFAX Buyback Guarantee* logo.

CARFAX 1-Owner Vehicle

The Ownership History section of the CARFAX Report can help you see where and how the vehicle was used. Look for the CARFAX 1-owner logo.
