Hey, guys!
I have bought a 2013 Tahoe this year, it seemed to be in perfect condition - low mileage, moderate price and CLEAN Carfax.
However, i took it to service recently, because I had concerns over a strange noise in the front. Skipping the details, I was shoked to find out that my car has been restored! It has been in an accident, that crashed its front and rooftop. Now the repair's gonna cost me money, and I can't trust the car no more and the service verdict is not comforting too. They say it's my luck (good or bad - hard to tell), to find this out on such an early stage. Because it could either break down in the middle of the highway, or everything can turn out ok.
Anyway, I am furious with Carfax, there are so many other alternative web-sites, but I went for Carfax, because I thought SUCH a price would mean QUALITY. A friend of mine ran a report for me on epicvin.com, it cost him 3 times less and I finally got to see photos of my car completely crashed, on an auction that was never even enlisted on Carfax.
now my question is
If any of you have been in the same situation - please I beg you to tell your story, I am planning to go for carfax buyback, but the whole procedure seems really tricky. So if anyone has experience with that - please contact me
