CARFAX Canada and UCDA Expand Their Collaboration to Help Dealerships Detect VIN Fraud
CARFAX Canada VIN Fraud Check Makes It Easier to Catch Re-vinning Earlier
CARFAX Canada, the nation’s leading provider of vehicle history and valuation information, and the Used Car Dealers Association (UCDA) expand their collaboration to help dealerships protect themselves and their customers against VIN fraud.
Integrating CARFAX Canada VIN Fraud Check directly into the UCDA’s dealer member portal is a step forward in avoiding VIN fraud when transacting used vehicles. Unknowingly buying or selling a re-vinned vehicle can have significant financial, legal and reputational risks for Canadian dealers and their customers. Pairing a CARFAX Canada Vehicle History Report with VIN Fraud Check is one of the best ways to avoid buying or selling a fraudulent vehicle.
"VIN fraud remains a serious concern in the automotive industry," said Shawn Vording, President of CARFAX Canada. "Since launching VIN Fraud Check over a year ago, the tool has helped dealers, consumers, and law enforcement agencies detect re-vinning activity. Extending access to UCDA members adds another layer of protection for consumers in the vehicle marketplace, and gives more dealers greater confidence in the vehicles they bring onto their lots."
