“Providing access to vehicle history reports generates trust between car shoppers and dealers, and we believe that trust makes it easier for car shoppers to buy and for dealers to sell,” stated Edmunds.com Vice President Brian Terr. “Our renewed relationship with Carfax helps Edmunds.com’s community of car shoppers and dealers build trust and move forward together with higher satisfaction in the process.”

Edmunds.com attracts approximately 18 million visitors each month. Re-entering into an agreement with Carfax gives dealers and manufacturers partnered with Edmunds.com another way to merchandise their inventory online.

“Edmunds.com is an incredibly valuable resource for used-car buyers and sellers,” said Bill Eager, vice president of Carfax. “We look forward to a great relationship with Edmunds.com and are excited to see our mutual customers have their Carfax Reports on Edmunds.com once again.”
