Misleading Carfax Commercials?
posted in Autocheck, Carfax |Recently I heard an advertisement on a local radio station for Carfax. From what I remember it was a girl saying she bough a car from her brothers friend and she found out the jerks car had flood damage and he just let it air dry and never repaired it and now she has tons of damage. Then the ad says how if she ran a Carfax report before buying she could have avoided a bad purchase.
What I don’t understand is how would a Carfax report know that the seller aired out his car after flood damage?
Being in the auto industry for so long I’ve never been a fan of Carfax, but this ad was really shady. I would recommend using Autocheck reports… no auto history report would have known the flood damage in this case, but Autocheck in my opinion is definitely a better vehicle history report.
