  1. The more important question to ask is how much Experian contributed to Diego’s campaign? Mr. Morales is a “pay-to-play” politician like no other.

    1. I agree 100% with Alan G. As a person that spends too much time online, this is the first time I have read about this service. I could have and would have used it last June

  2. Instead of the state wasting taxpayer dollars, why not require the sellers of used cars to provide the third-party reports at no cost to prospective buyers? A dealer that fails to provide a report can be fined a significant amount, with the money placed in a state fund for other worthwhile programs.

  3. Wow, somebody is once again wasting a bunch of my tax dollars. This is the first I have heard of this service so advertising definetly is lacking. The initial usage should have been an indicator to not renew the contract, yet Morales chose to waste more of my tax dollar$ on a service greatly under used.
