Meineke Joins Carfax Service Link Program
Meineke Car Care Centers, Inc. has joined the Carfax Service Link program, reporting vehicle maintenance information to Carfax. Including detailed service records on Carfax Vehicle History Reports creates free advertising for Meineke locations to reach the millions of in-market consumers who receive Carfax Reports each year. Used car buyers rely on this information to better understand how a vehicle was maintained and where to take it for future service.“We enjoy our relationship with Carfax and the exposure and traffic Meineke receives on both carfax.com and Carfax Vehicle History Reports that many used car buyers view,” said Donald P. Rausch, director of marketing and training at Meineke Car Care Centers. “If new owners see their car has been regularly serviced by one of our shops, they’re more likely to bring it back to us for future maintenance.”
Carfax Vehicle History Reports display the name, location, and web address of each shop that provides maintenance information to Carfax. Potential owners see detailed records of routine maintenance, such as oil changes and tune-ups, along with more extensive information like brake repair or parts replacement, when available.
Carfax Service Link is a free, value-added program available to any aftermarket service provider. Carfax uses the unique 17-character vehicle identification number (VIN) found on vehicle dashboards and title documents to instantly generate a detailed Vehicle History Report on any used car or light truck. Carfax Vehicle History Reports(TM) provide valuable information that helps used car buyers and sellers make better decisions. Free Carfax Vehicle History Reports are instantly available with vehicles listed in nearly every online marketplace by Carfax-subscribing dealers.
