Depending on whether the sale was as is? In Ohio buyer beware is the slogan. You may however have a cause of action against the delaer if in fact they assure you the vehicle was never wrecked and then gave you the bad car fax. Your cause of action will be either misrepresentation or fraud. The issue will be what are your damages? The value of the vehicle assuming it hadn't been wrecked, compared to it's value as a wrecked and repaired vehicle.
