I am the 3rd owner. Carfax will show 5 owners but the 2 original owners both moved states and one had been divorced so it showed a title change for that as well. The vehicle was bought by the second owner as a CPO vehicle. I purchased the vehicle from a dealership in St. Louis and drove it back to Michigan.
There were no accidents shown on the CarFax when I purchased this vehicle. While owning this vehicle I was tapped on the RR corner while on the highway in my ownership - zero structural damage and thecosmeticdamage is only noticeable to a trained eye. The area has been buffed and scratching removed. The person that hit my vehicle tried to run from the scene so I had to call the policeand report this - unsure if this will show as an accident at this point but I feel inclined to let the next owner know. The "damage" is pictured - there is a small scuff that is extremelyunnoticeable.
The vehicle has been extremely reliable. I have high attention to detail and have refreshed many items as you will see below in. The vehicle is extremely tight, handles well and has an abundance of power. No start up noises or knocks - nosurprises. I would not hesitate to take this vehicle on long road trips at all. I just recently (2 weeks ago) changed the oil and had it analyzed by Blackstone Laboratories - report was clean and there are no causes for concern.
