[QUOTE="KilledbyKenne, post: 16623228, member: 154527"] I feel your pain. I bought a 2014 Malibu from Hertz in 2015. (Say what you want about buying from Hertz but I shopped around and they had the best deal when considering trade-in value they offered for my old car so I went for it.) It was the same exact situation. Bought with a clean carfax and in 2018 I tried to trade the car in at a different dealership on a Hellcat Charger and they looked at the carfax and saw structural damage so they offered me half of the normal trade-in value. I was livid. I got a copy of the report and same story, the accident was added retroactively. I took the info to the Hertz dealership and they agreed that it was a shitty deal and offered to give me a full trade-in value on anything they had on the lot, which is more than they had to do. They didn't have anything I wanted so I've just dealt with it for the last 3 years. I still own the car today. Sorry for your experience. I have been there before. I still look at carfax for cars I'm buying, but I trust clean carfax reports a little less than I used to. And I'll add one thing. I talked to a rep from carfax and apparently their definition of "structural damage" is really loose. It doesn't necessarily mean frame damage. [/QUOTE]
