[QUOTE="svtfocus2cobra, post: 16623417, member: 21786"] Someone may have posted this already but I don't have time to read the whole thread so I'm just going to say this: I worked in body repair for about 5 years and not once did we ever report to Carfax, and neither do any of the other shops I knew of either. It's a service that the shops have to pay for and customers will pay out of pocket just to keep their accidents from being reported by an insurance company, third party, or whatever. It's worth checking a Carfax to see if any accidents were by chance reported but I would say that the majority of repairs are never reported, and I mean that by a huge margin. If you want to know if a car has been in an accident just take it over to a body shop and ask the estimator if they would be willing to look the car over and tell you if it has ever been wrecked. It will be much more accurate and likely free and they'll most likely be able to tell you what was repaired and how big the repair was. [/QUOTE]
