Should I get a vehicle history report when I purchase a new or used vehicle from a dealer?

Question:
The answer is YES! Always get a vehicle history report on the vehicle you are purchasing, and go over it with the dealer. Many dealers are re-selling lemon law vehicles, and won't tell you about them when you make your purchase. Always get a vehicle history report on the vehicle, carfax isn't enough! Hold the dealer to the condition of the vehicle. Make them sign off on it, or WALK AWAY!

Do you always answer your own questions? CarFax won't show anything on a new car, as there have been no legal transfers. On a used car, you should not only get a CarFax, but you should have a competent, independent mechanic do a thorough inspection. If CarFax missed something, a good mechanic will find it.

Can I Get a New Car?

For a used car you want to get a CARFAX vehicle history report - buy it on your own or get the dealer to provide it. Plus get an inspection by a qualified mechanic. A Carfax report is NOT a substitute for an inspection.
