Dave I realize you did get the correct carfax for a car you didnt want to buy. What's terrible is that you insinuated that I was hiding work for a period of time which is not true. Also the carfax is not accurate because like I said the latest post said Mb of Melbourne changed the oil which never happened and then Bavarian Haus changing the transmission never happened and that can be verified by calling them. Why it says they did I have no idea.
I was also surprised to see the oil change on there given that you do it yourself.

Interesting that it also says on 9/23/20 Mercedes of Melbourne changed the oil. That never happened since I do the oil myself.

So the carfax is not accurate. And no the transmission was never changed.
Why call them? They wouldn't tell me about repairs on a car that doesn't belong to me. And I really wouldn't care what they'd say even if they did blab about another customer's car. I showed you the report where it says that they replaced the trans. Perhaps YOU should be the one to question them on it. They obviously did some sort of trans work on the car....and it may have been miscoded.

I filed a request with carfax to correct the record entry for the transmission replacement since like I said it never happened. I suppose I can got out to the car and jack it up and photograph the id numbers on the side of the transmission and then use them to verify that its the original trans that came with the car.

Oh please post this carfax your talking about I would love to see it where I took the car in monthly for a year when of course that never happened and the best one the transmission change. Cant wait to see it.
Satisfied yet? Or am I still a slanderous liar?

Errors own Carfax reports are common. Nothing unusual. It will be in Katies best interest to take that up with the shop (with isn't a Mercedes dealer) and Carfax to get the record corrected as it may impact resale value.

I have already filed a request for the report to be fixed. No trans work has ever been performed except myself changing the fluid and filter.

Katie, thanks for providing a response to the Carfax issues and clarifications. I would recommend adding the Carfax info (once corrected) to the sales post for additional info.
