Some 18 year old tech at a dealer fat fingers 180k miles instead of 18k on a service ticket which then goes into the 3rd party database mining before being sent off to Carfax... guess what Carfax does when they see an oil change at 180k and the next one at 21k? What happens when a minimum wage clerk at the auction house enters the wrong mileage on a title transfer (which happens a solid 25% of the time BTW) If that mileage is higher... Boom!! Odometer fraud!!!! (Well, at least according to Carfax). |

Sure, if someone crashes their car against a post and police is not involved and they fix the car themselves at home, it won't show but that doesn't account for most accidents. In most cases, Carfax gives you a lot of information. |

You also didn't mention any of the things that are clear signs of fraud or odometer rollback. |

Carfax is an absolute fraud and there is a special place in hell waiting for the assholes that run it.
They provide garbage information. They absolve themselves of any culpability for misinformation (of course via that whole fine print thing). They market themselves in a way that holds dealers and individuals hostage... just like is seen here. If you don't have a Carfax, it's a red flag. I have seen hundreds, yes hundreds of vehicles come across as "Potential Odometer Rollback". Do you know how many actually were? 1. Exactly 1. And it was a custom motorcycle that didn't even have an OEM odometer on it. Carfax has convinced the world that they are the protector of truth. They are the largest source of false information in the entire industry. F**k Carfax. |

Yes, errors do happen if someone mistypes something but it would look like this.. 2019 20000 miles 2020 21000 miles 2021 23000 miles 2022 10000 miles 2023 26000 miles.. Obviously, the 2022 mileage may have been typed in incorrectly but if you have a car that had the mileage go up consistently over many years and then the car is sold with 100k miles less on the odometer, this is fraud. |
