How does CarMax choose the cars that you sell?
We check every car's history to rule out any with flood damage, frame damage, outstanding liens, or salvage history. Any car that can't meet those condition standards gets sold at auction — not to you. Cars must also pass a 125+ point inspection and undergo a detailed reconditioning process to be sold at CarMax. Some CarMax cars have unrepaired safety recalls; here's what you should know about that.
