FARMINGTON HILLS, Mich., Sept. 2 -- RouteOne LLC announced today that it has completed integration with Carfax. RouteOne dealer customers can purchase and view Carfax Vehicle History Reports(TM) directly within the RouteOne platform, simplifying and improving the dealers' workflow experience.

"We are very pleased to announce this integration with Carfax," said Mike Jurecki, RouteOne CEO. "Dealers will be able to run reports directly from within RouteOne, eliminating double entry and use of multiple systems, saving them time and money. Offering access to Carfax on the RouteOne platform provides dealer employees, especially those in used vehicle departments, an invaluable tool when it comes to completing deals efficiently."

Dealers can access their Carfax account from multiple operating points within RouteOne. Users without a Carfax subscription can easily sign up with Carfax from within the RouteOne platform.

"Previous studies prove that running Carfax Reports at acquisition helps dealers sell cars faster and for more money," said Larry Gamache, communications director at Carfax. "From acquisition to retail to financing, Carfax Reports play a crucial role in the dealer's sales cycle. This enhancement helps RouteOne users find the cars their customers want and market them more effectively."
