CARFAX Company Overview

Carfax started with a vision - to create a one-stop source of vehicle history information for buyers and sellers of used cars. Working closely with the Missouri Automobile Dealer's Association (MADA), Carfax offered the first Carfax Vehicle History Report to the dealer market in 1986. These first reports were developed with a database of 10,000 vehicle records. By the end of 1993, the Carfax database contained title information from nearly all 50 states and we were ready to begin offering the service nationally.
