Do you guys have unlimited CARFAX reports or do you have to pay per report?

The reason why Im asking is because I bought my car in 2002 and the owner never said anything about accidents and it was in good condition (I laugh now) - but 3 weeks later the Condensor failed and the mechanic told me an impact from the front caused one of the support arms of the radiator to puncture it slowly.

Is it expensive b/c I finally want to look up if my car was ever in an accident. Thanks

As I am about to buy an SVT, I decided to do a carfax check. And seeing as it was about $20 for one report or $25 for infiite reports, I just bought the infinite-reports license. So PM me with your VIN!

EDIT: Gah! Those fiends! I thought it was unlimited, but it only lasts for a month, that's 27 more days! If you want a free CarFax report, PM me ASAP!

Yeah, I made the same mistake...I thought it was unlimited too!!

Remember, Car Fax may not show the accident, if there was one, because some car owners don't file it with their insurance companies for obvious reasons.

Later.

Its just a thing that has bothered me ever since I bought the car.

I mean - it looked like crap when I bought the car - but then I poured about $1500 more into repairing the condensor, fusebox, tires/rims(2 were bent), tint, and springs.

I mainly bought it because it had a SVT engine with only 45K on it b/c the original SVT engine spun a bearing. And this engine to this day is still strong and fast. I am just convinced the previous owner was hit because the hood doesnt line up with the fender perfectly on the drivers side.
