I found out about 3 days after my last post that the ""FIX"" was not actually a fix. They actually decided to add another nice glaring picture to the report. They added a brand new accident.

I could sit here and rant about how useless carfax is but I wont.

The car sold a few weeks ago for $27k and I felt lucky that I got that much for it.

Damn that sucks. I have an audi and I have to wonder if it has been an accident too. I just see somethings that don't add up. Everything seems fine for the most part.
But there is a huge gap in the carfax report. It was from Manheim car auction that a gmc or gm dealer had. It was kinda of odd imo.
But its been 3 yrs so who knows lol.

How much did u pay for it?

I'll be in my bunk!

Yeah, theres not much you can do, especially if youve already owned it for 3 years. If there was the carfax "buy back" on the car, it would still only be for 1 year. I suggest you not dwell on it too long.

I paid $24, back in 2018. It had 23k miles. Carmax SAYS they use "auto check" and not carfax, so the car was clean. Im fairly certain there was information on it. I say that since the carfax was updated after the car was in my possession, registered and under my ownership.

I guess the timing was good. Especially with these so called shortages. U came ahead. Had this been a couple of yrs ago 3, u would of got less for sure.
