FAQ
Common CARFAX questions
What does CARFAX show?
Available data depends on the VIN. A report may include ownership, mileage, service, accident, registration and title records.
Does CARFAX replace auction history?
No. It is better to use both sources: our archive shows the vehicle’s auction condition and photos, while CARFAX adds other available records.
Can I check a vehicle before buying on Copart or IAA?
Yes. You only need the VIN. It is useful to check the vehicle before making a final purchase or bidding decision.
