This is just personal opinion here, but I'm generally comfortable even if minor damage has occurred AND it's a CPO vehicle. To some, that may be placing too much trust in the CPO inspection and conditioning, but cars are cars. They break, sometimes because of other parties besides the manufacturer, but as long as the damage wasn't major and it was easily repaired, then why worry?

Obviously it matters what kind of "minor accident" it was and what repairs were required, etc., but that's why I talk it through with the car dealer if I see it on the report so I can make a more informed decision.

In general though, I think it's important to remember that "accident" can mean a lot of different things and end up anywhere on a spectrum of seriousness/severity from a little bump to a totaled car.
