Commitments And Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments, contingent liabilities and other matters	NOTE 9 Commitments, contingent liabilities and other matters Commitments In May 2016, we entered into a new lease of office space in Chicago, Illinois. The lease extends through June 2031 and monthly rental payments under the lease escalate by 2.5% each year throughout the lease. Total minimum payments throughout the remaining life of the lease are $56.8 million. Litigation We and our subsidiaries are parties from time to time in legal and administrative proceedings involving matters incidental to our business. These matters, whether pending, threatened or unasserted, if decided adversely to Cars.com or settled, may result in liabilities material to our consolidated financial position, results of operation or cash flows. We record a liability when we believe that it is both probable that a loss will be incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. We evaluate, at least quarterly, developments in its legal matters that could affect the amount of liability that has been previously accrued, and make adjustments as appropriate. Significant judgment is required to determine both the probability and the estimated amount.
