    Reported Accidents
    One or more accidents have been found on record through police reports or insurance claims.

    Accidents usually aren’t deal-breakers, but they can affect the condition and value of the vehicle. We always recommend Carfax and AutoCheck reports followed by a pre-purchase inspection (PPI) - even if there are no accidents listed (as some accidents go unreported).
