What's Included in a CARFAX® History Report

Finance Center

What makes a CARFAX® used car history report such an essential factor in the pre-owned vehicle purchasing process? Here at Sansone Auto, we aim to give drivers peace of mind when they purchase pre-owned cars, trucks, and SUVs, and a comprehensive history of vehicle ownership can really help. Here are just a few of the details you’ll learn when you check out a CARFAX® Vehicle History Report™ at our used car dealership in Woodbridge, NJ.

Branded Titles 

If a vehicle has suffered serious damage, it will have a branded title. For the most part, you want to avoid vehicles with branded titles, as they are often damaged to the point of value or safety loss. Some of the reasons a vehicle might be branded include “lemon titles”, meaning it qualified for the lemon law in at least one state, and an odometer rollback, meaning the mileage isn’t accurate. 

It may also have a branded title if it has a salvage or rebuild title, or it has suffered water or hail damage that a service team can’t fix.

Accident Damage Reports 

Another important detail that will appear in a CARFAX® Vehicle History Report™ is the vehicle’s history of damage or accidents. Accidents aren’t necessarily a dealbreaker when it comes to purchasing a pre-owned vehicle, but you will want to know what those accidents were. This will help you schedule service and repairs and purchase new auto parts for safe driving in the future.

History of Service 

In addition to the accident history, a CARFAX® Vehicle History Report™ will provide information on how the vehicle was cared for. There’s no better way to keep your vehicle safe than with routine service and care at Sansone Auto, and the more comprehensive a service history a pre-owned vehicle has, the more reliable it will be. These reports will inform you about the type of service, the date, and the location.
