Iyini i-CarFax ehlanzekile?

Uma uthenga imoto ephethwe ngaphambilini, ungaba nokuthula okukhulu kwengqondo mayelana nokuthembeka kwayo lapho uthola umbiko womlando wemoto ovela kwa-CarFax. Ukubuyekeza ulwazi olukulo mbiko kungakusiza ukuthi unqume ukuthi imoto elungile ongayithenga noma kufanele yini uyidlulise ukuze uthole inketho engcono.

Iyini i-CarFax?

I-CarFax yaqala ngo-1984 njengendlela yokuhlinzeka ngomlando wezimoto ezisetshenzisiwe ezithengiswayo. Yakhula ngokushesha yafaka imibiko evela kuzinqolobane zokuhlola zazo zonke izifundazwe ezingu-50 ukunikeza abathengi ulwazi mayelana neminyaka, imayela kanye nezinye izibalo zemoto ababengathanda ukuyithenga. Isebenzisa inombolo kamazisi yemoto (VIN) yemoto ukucacisa ulwazi olubalulekile.

Yini efakwe emibikweni ye-CarFax?

I-VIN isetshenziselwa ukusesha amarekhodi futhi inikeze ulwazi mayelana nemoto ocabanga ukuyithenga. Ibuyela emuva ekuqaleni komlando wemoto futhi inikeza irekhodi eliphelele elisuselwe olwazini oluthile olutholwe kuzinqolobane ezihlukahlukene. Nansi incazelo yolwazi ongalindela ukuyithola embikweni we-CarFax:

• Noma yiziphi izingozi ezedlule noma ukulimala kwemoto, okuhlanganisa nokuthi ama-airbag asetshenzisiwe yini

• Umlando we-odometer ukuze uqinisekise imayela elinembile

• Noma yiziphi izinkinga ngesihloko, okuhlanganisa ukuhlenga, izikhukhula noma umlilo

• Noma yikuphi ukukhumbula noma okuthengiwe kabusha ngabathengisi ngenxa yezinkinga ezinkulu, ezibuye zibizwe ngokuthi isimo sikalamula

• Amarekhodi abanikazi bangaphambilini kanye nenani lezikhathi imoto edayiswe ngayo kanye nobude bobunikazi; futhi inikeza ulwazi lokuthi imoto yayisetshenziswa yini njengendawo eqashisayo

• Noma iyiphi isevisi nokugcinwa kwamarekhodi atholakalayo

• Ukuthi imoto isengaphansi kwewaranti

• Imiphumela yokuhlolwa kokuphahlazeka ekwenziweni nakwimodeli, ukukhumbula ukuphepha nolunye ulwazi oluqondene nemodeli

Ulwazi olutholiwe luvela emithonjeni ethembekile nenegunya. Umnyango Wezimoto wesifunda ngasinye uhlinzeka ngenqwaba yedatha. Iphinde iqoqwe ezinkampanini zomshwalense, ezinkampanini eziqashisa ngezimoto, ezitolo ezilungisa izimoto ezishayisanayo, ezinkampanini ezigcina umthetho, ezindlini zendali, eziteshini zokuhlola, nasezindaweni ezidayisayo.

I-CarFax idlulisela lonke ulwazi olutholayo emibikweni eyinikezayo. Nokho, akusona isiqinisekiso sokuthi idatha iphelele. Uma ulwazi lungafiki kweyodwa yezikhungo ezibika ku-CarFax, ngeke lufakwe embikweni.

Ungawuthola kanjani umbiko weCarFax

Abathengisi abaningi banikeza umbiko we-CarFax ngayo yonke imoto esetshenzisiwe abayithengisayo. Eqinisweni, bavame ukuhlinzekwa ngemoto egunyazwe ngaphambili njengengxenye yohlelo. Ungaphinda ubuze mayelana nokuthola umbiko uma unganikezwanga ngokuzenzakalelayo.

Enye inketho ukuthenga umbiko ngokwakho. Ungase ufune ukwenza lokhu uma uthenga kumuntu ngamunye. Ungathenga umbiko owodwa noma uthenge imibiko eminingi noma inombolo engenamkhawulo, kodwa mihle izinsuku ezingama-30 kuphela. Uma uthenga imoto kodwa ungakayitholi, iphakheji engenamkhawulo ikuvumela ukuthi usebenzise ama-VIN amaningi phakathi nenkathi yezinsuku ezingu-30.

Ukuthola umbiko ohlanzekile

Umbiko ohlanzekile ovela kwaCarFax usho ukuthi imoto ayizange ibe nezinkinga ezinkulu ezibikiwe. Lokhu kusho ukuthi isihloko sihlanzekile ngaphandle kokuhlenga noma isihloko esakhiwe kabusha. Ayizange ihileleke ezikhukhuleni noma emlilweni, ngokusho kwamarekhodi. Azikho izibopho ezisele ezimelene nayo ezingenza kube semthethweni ukudayisa. Ukufundwa kwe-odometer kufana nalokho okusohlwini lombiko, futhi imoto ayizange ibikwe njengentshontshiwe.

Uma uthola umbiko ohlanzekile kwa-CarFax, ungakunikeza ukuthula kwengqondo mayelana nemoto oyithengayo. Kodwa-ke, kubalulekile ukuhlola ngaphambi kokuthenga ukuze uqinisekise ukuthi imoto ayinazo izinkinga ezifihliwe ezingabikwanga.
