Yes! When I spoke to the dealer, they said that any non-chassis or frame damage is ok. For example, trunk, lighting, bumper, and panel (fender) damage can still get CPO'd. But it should all be available on the CarFax anyways. Hope you get a good price on it.

Must be by manufacturer. Lexus for example, doesn't allow any vehicle to be CPO'd if it has been involved in an accident.

As far as I know, MB wont CPO any car that has accident data from carfax or autocheck. I can find out for you first thing in the morning but I dont recall ever selling a CPO with a bad carfax.
