I did a CarProof report on a vehicle a family friend wants to purchase from a curbsider (basically a mechanic shop that sells some used cars). The vehicle is priced about $3-4K lower than other vehicles with higher mileage. The carproof says it had a front end damage (Partial Loss) with a value of around $11,000 a few years ago. 2 years later, the vehicle has another claim on the passenger side which was of a similar value. Now, the car does have a dent on the side but it's definitely not 11K in damage. Is there any other way I can check for accidents on the car or get more details? I do not have access to the vehicle personally so I cannot check it carefully for replaced parts. My dad and his friend said the car drives very well though.
The dealer is going to give a UVIP but I don't think it shows accidents.
