Detailed Vehicle History Definitions:
• First Owner
When the first owner(s) obtains a title from a Department of Motor Vehicles as proof of ownership.

• Lease
When someone leases a car from a dealer, the dealer actually sells the vehicle to a leasing company. The leasing company then collects payments for the vehicle from the new owner for 24, 36, 48 or more months. A leasing company can be an independent car dealer or a car manufacturer.

• Odometer Rollback
If a more recent odometer reading is less than an older reading, then the odometer may have been "rolled back." This is an indicator of mileage fraud.

• New Owner Reported
When a vehicle is sold to a new owner, the Title must be transferred to the new owner(s) at a Department of Motor Vehicles.

Thanks alot MBW!!....hmmmm, odometer rollback? Gonna have to find out more...once again, thank you. :) Totally appreciate it. Is that the only thing it reported? Anyone else spot anything else wrong with it?
 
Does anyone understand why Carfax would give a clean bill of health (ie guarantee), yet show odometer rollback issues?

This happened on another car earlier. I am confused :confused:
 
My car

Thought I should respond since this is my VIN. Spinner and I have been discussing a possible trade. In case someone looks up my VIN in a future sale, I don't want this to come back and haunt me.

So the truth is, the CARFAX is wrong. I checked with the DMV to insure that all records were indeed intact and they are.

I would like to state that I have NOT rolled back my odometer!

My car's lien was recently released. When a lien is released the actual mileage is not recorded. Mileage is only recorded by the DMV when a change of ownership occurs when a new title is issued. In this case, CARFAX reported that my lien was released, but with the mileage of when I bought the car eventhough the mileage was recorded on 7/10/2001! They did not record my mileage back in June at all!

I wrote a letter to CARFAX explaining the problem, they are now in the process of sending me documentation to state my case.

That said, I'd like to warn everyone that CARFAX is not the bible. Apparently they too can make mistakes with their data feeds.

My letter to CARFAX for those who are curious, and for posterity purposes so my name, and my car's VIN is cleared is enclosed below.

I hope to get a clean CARFAX soon.

Incidentally, I am entertaining the sale of my car; but not entirely serious.

If you have a good offer let me know. The car currently has 106K miles, all maintenance is up to date, new rear pads 1K miles ago, alignment done at Custom Alignment (high end alignment shop in Mountain View, CA), engine and maintenance serviced exclusively by Don Lam during my ownership and Golden Gate Acura before, I have complete maintenance records to back my car up.

It is mechanically flawless. The paint is in great shape, except for the hood chips endemic of a car with 106K miles. No dings, dents, or other egregegious imperfections to speak of. As for mods, lowered with Bilsteins and CT Powergrip 1 clutch/flywheel.

PM if interested.

I will not sell the car till the CARFAX is clear, as I will be the best person to insure that the record is clear before ownership is passed on; if I do indeed decide to do so. Again, I'm only entertaining the notion of the sale, so don't bother low-balling me.

I am pretty upset about this matter. However, I am glad that I have discovered this earlier rather than later.

--------

Dear sir,

I am writing to request help on correcting the CARFAX report on my car. I am trying to sell my vehicle and the CARFAX is showing a rollback when no rollback has occurred.

The last 5 records are the following:

07/10/2001 68,508 California

Title issued
POTENTIAL ODOMETER ROLLBACK

I purchased my car on July 10, 2001 at 68,506 miles. At the time, I had a car loan. I then drove the car two miles to get it smogged before purchase. This explains the record:

07/10/2001 68,508 California
Inspection Station
Los Altos, CA
Passed emissions inspection

When I had my car smogged this year for registration purposes the following record was recorded:

01/25/2003 94,146 California
Inspection Station
Los Altos, CA
Passed emissions inspection

In June, I paid off my car loan. The title was then released. Since a new owner was not reported, the odometer reading was not updated. The California DMV only updates the odometer reading when a title is issued tto a new owner. I am not a new owner. I simply had my title released.

On the pink slip that was released, it clearly states that the odometer reading is 68506, BUT that it was measured on 7/10/2001 not on 06/01/2003 like the CARFAX suggests. The CARFAX system seems to be assuming that the date the title is issued is the date of the odometer reading. In the vehicle record, these are two seperate fields that only coincide when a change of ownership occurs.

I went to the DMV this morning to insure that their records are correct.

Therefore, I am asking you to help me resolve this problem. Did you pull the wrong data feed somehow?

I need to do whatever it takes to clear the record on my car.

I can provide a fax of my pink slip to you, or a photograph that verifies my story. I would like to get this solved as soon as possible.

I can provide you with any additional information you need. If indeed the DMV is record is incorrect, can you specifically tell me how so that I can go back to the DMV and make them correct this? The DMV representative insisted that their record was correct on this matter and that therefore it was the CARFAX data that was flawed.
