CarFax needed!

Hi,

Can someone run a CarFax on this VIN: JHMBB6242YC005389 ?

I know it has a Stolen vehicle title (salvage), but someone is also saying it has Flood damage. I want to make sure.

Thank you!
Grant

Just for your information, CarFax only lists major defects on the cars such as flood damage, salvage, and major accidents. My CarFax was clean for my car but my trusted mechanic showed me where it had been re-welded from pretty bad accidents. Get it checked out personally. It's worth the extra dough.

But sorry I have no CarFax account.

Salvage title doesn't equal Stolen.

Damn, screw that car. Owner didn't even say that it had Flood Damage. All he said was that the car had a Salvage title because it was stolen.

Thanks Qveon!!

No. CarFax just didn't list that it had been in an accident.
