CARFAX vehicle History Reports

Each year an 2.5 million cars are wrecked, and 1 million of them end up back on the road. The question is, how many of them have missing airbags? Airbag fraud is a huge and profitable scam in recent years. When cars are wrecked, the insurance companies pay for damages which also include airbag replacement. But many unscrupulous repair people keep the money without replacing the $800 airbag, often stuffing the space with everything from crushed beer cans to peanut bags. There's many companies out there that sell fake airbag covers so that you think you have an airbag but you really don't.


Many people right now, maybe even you, are driving around in a used car with no airbag, even though you think there is one there. How can you really tell if it's there? You can't see through the airbag cover. That's why you need to know if the car was wrecked. If the car had previous accidents, or other title flaws such as "Junked", "Salvaged", "Rebuilt", on the CARFAX Vehicle History Report then you need to be real suspicious of this car and have a mechanic verify that airbags are properly installed in your car. In some states, CARFAX can tell you if the airbag was deployed in an accident, if police investigators check it off in the accident report that's why it is very important to know what is on your driving record.
