Automotive Leaders Join Forces to Make Online Shopping
Better
MISSISSAUGA, Ontario,
July 29, 2015 /CNW/ -- Carpages.ca
has partnered with Carfax Canada to give people a better experience
when shopping online for used cars. Now, car buyers get
complimentary Carfax® Vehicle History Reports™ from subscribing
dealers included with their inventory on Carpages.ca. Making
trusted information from Carfax readily available on the only car
shopping website in Canada
endorsed by the Used Car Dealer Association (UCDA) helps consumers
buy with even greater confidence.
"We are excited to work with Carfax Canada and believe that the
integration of Carfax Reports helps enhance the shopping experience
on Carpages.ca," said Ben Mirecki,
president of Carpages.ca. "It's another big step forward in our
commitment to providing a safer car shopping destination for
Canadian consumers. This partnership speaks volumes about our equal
desire to build buyer trust through transparency in the universe of
online car shopping."
Online shoppers have instant access to Carfax Reports, the best
known reports in Canada, at
no-cost from subscribing dealers. With a single click, buyers see
valuable information about accidents and damage claim amounts
reported to Carfax, plus information you can't get anywhere else
like service records, damage repair details, open recalls and more.
Direct links to the Carfax Reports are included on both the search
results and vehicle details pages of Carpages.ca.
"Carpages.ca is the place many Canadians go to shop for used
cars online," said Jon Arnett,
general manager of Carfax Canada. "We're impressed by their
continued efforts to make it easier for used car shoppers to buy
online. Consumers and dealers agree that including a Carfax Report
with vehicles for sale is just as important as price and photos,
and helps foster quicker, more informed buying decisions."
