Car fax is complete CRAP. Just because a car has 21 hits doesn't mean anything bad. My XT had something like 40 hits on it. 34 or so were from Las Vegas where someone got a ticket that they never paid. Each time it went another step in the gov't it showed up as another hit. Working at an aution for a few years illustrates how bad car fax really is. 1. They don't actually keep any info, they just rely on what is reported.
2. They don't make changes easily even when it is obvious that a DMV screwed up. (took me 2 years to get a title mileage corrected on their system.) Took 5 minutes with DMV.
Yes car fax can be used to an advantage of a buyer but you first must use your head.
