More than 34,000 sources, such as state DMVs, service and repair facilities, and police departments report vehicle history information that’s housed in the Carfax database. Millions of people every year rely on this valuable information to help them buy and sell used cars with more confidence.

“Carfax Vehicle History Reports are a must have when buying or selling a used car,” said Larry Gamache, communications director at Carfax. “Every day we add millions of pieces of new information to our database.
