So how trust worthy is carfax............
 
when buying a used vehicle? Does it really protect the buyer?

It gives you an idea and use your judgment.

Somebody told me that apparently one can doctor a carfax report. There's another service that can't be fudged. I don't know the name, but it's worth researching.

Yup, it gives you a pretty good idea. Some cars will have a lot of detail in the records, others won't. It all depends.

You could also call Nissan/Infiniti and ask where the car was bought from. The dealership can tell you the service history if you have the VIN.

Car fax is just another tool. Just like taking the car to a machanic of your choice.

Im thinking the same thing. I wish I knew someone in Georgia. I have seen an heard of situations where wives sell husbands cars on them to screw them over. Im just wondering if that could possible be the case, or if there is something really strange going on?
