CARFAX One-Owner Vehicles for Sale in Auburn, Alabama

Buying a car is a big decision, and new cars can put a big dent in your wallet. One of the best ways to save is to look at used cars, but how do you know where a used car has been and if it’s been taken care of? At Hyundai of Auburn, we offer a selection of one-owner used vehicles, and we have the CARFAX reports to go along with them.

 

Why CARFAX Reports Matter

Knowledge is power when buying a used car. There’s a lot to think about when you’re at a used car dealership, from the make and model to the miles and price tag. This is where a CARFAX report comes in. It provides a detailed history with all kinds of important information, including repairs, ownership history, and more.

A CARFAX report will show you if a used car you’re considering has ever been in an accident. It includes everything from just a minor fender bender to a major accident to help you determine if it was repaired correctly or if it may have underlying problems. A CARFAX report will also show the number of owners, the time they owned the vehicle, and where it was bought and sold.

 

Understanding Vehicle History

A vehicle’s history can greatly affect its reliability, safety, and resale value. Its history includes where and when it was purchased, who owned the vehicle, where it was driven, and how it was taken care of.

 

The Number of Owners Counts

Buying a one-owner used vehicle puts you at an advantage. Fewer owners often translate into more in-depth service records, which gives you a better idea of how the car was maintained. The owner section of the CARFAX report includes:

  • The year it was purchased.
  • The type of owner, whether it was personal or part of a business fleet.
  • The length of ownership.
  • The estimated miles driven each year.
  • The most recent odometer reading.

Another advantage of a one-owner vehicle is that fewer people have driven it.

 

Accident History

Always read the accident history to know what you’re getting in a used vehicle. The CARFAX report will show if the vehicle has:

  • Been declared a total loss.
  • Had its air bags deployed.
  • Experienced any structural damage.
  • Suffered any minor damage.
  • Been in an accident.

Just because a vehicle has been in an accident doesn’t mean you shouldn’t consider it. Some insurance claims are for cosmetic repairs that won’t affect how the vehicle runs or its reliability. For example, a claim to repair the windshield won’t affect how the vehicle operates.

A vehicle that was in an accident and only suffered $3,000 or less in damages is usually acceptable because it’s likely only bodywork. A repaint or door or bumper replacement usually falls within this price range. But if you see an accident where the repairs are over $3,000 or the dollar amount is not listed, you’ll probably want to avoid it. It was most likely in a major accident with severe structural or mechanical damage.

 

Tips for Buying One-Owner Vehicles in Auburn, Alabama

The best way to determine a vehicle’s number of owners is to look at its CARFAX report. In most cases, reputable car dealerships, such as Hyundai of Auburn, will offer the report for free.

 

Advantages of Buying One-Owner Vehicles

In addition to having a more accurate maintenance and driving history, there are several other advantages to buying a one-owner vehicle. One-owner vehicles often have less wear and tear. A single owner translates into consistent driving habits and less chance of hidden damage. With just one person or family behind the wheel, the vehicle has a better chance of being well cared for.

When looking at used cars, finding a one-owner vehicle will provide you with the best value for your money. It’s common knowledge that fewer hands behind the wheel will help command a higher price because buyers see them as more reliable.
