Looking at a 2020 Scab. What does this Carfax say to you? Should I be concerned?

So I found this nice super cab 2020 that I really like. However the work done per the car fax has me a little scared. What do you think happened here? I would really appreciate some honest feedback. ThanksIMG_8531.jpegIMG_8531.jpeg

How many miles?
I would be thinking electrical and/or shifting issues that either dealer or mechanic just threw parts at before really knowing what issue was.

Just my guess.

It has about 21000 miles and build date of Jan, 2020. I think that cam phaser issues were probably fixed since a later build date.

i wouldnt be concerned..carfax is pretty dumb when it comes to a lot of normal maintenance things.

i read that as a key fob battery, a TCU flash, a coil and a steering gear.. maybe a battery..

I agree. The specific items listed is telling me they had a dead battery, tried to jump start the truck, co(ked that up and fried every module in the vehicle.

That makes a lot more sense than anything else. I’ll try to get an oasis and see if they can tell me anything else.

So my local dealer agreed to pull the oasis report. Doesn’t show anything like the Carfax. What gives?
