Car Accident Police Report

Hi,

Recently my neighbor hit my car in apartment parking area and made minor scratches on bumper. So we called the cops and made a complaint then she was agreed to pay the expenses for scratches recovery.

My question is will it be reported to carfax as accident history. When I asked the cop he said that it will not be reported.

Can someone please clarify this.

Appreciate your insight.

Re: Car Accident Police Report

It all depends. Not everything gets reported. I own a car that the PO told me had hit a deer. It was reported to insurance and repaired. No accidents appear on the carfax. I hit a deer in the same car then a week later was run off the road and slid into some guard rails. Both reported and paid out through insurance. Neither of those made it to the carfax report either.
