i was reading a reddit thread about this. Apparently a shop put the car on the frame bender not to actually do frame repairs. But carfax considers any "frame time" to mean that extensive damage and repairs were done. Even if there was no structural damage. IIRC the guy go the shop to tell carfax that and they removed it.
