Why you need a Used Vehicle Report

When buying a used car, there are many ways for you to get a bad deal from an auto dealer. Odometer readings may be rolled back, a dealer will not or cannot show you the repair orders or identity of former owner(s), or the vehicle was shipped from out-of-state or received in trade from another dealer.


What is a VIN Number?

"VIN" stands for Vehicle Identification Number. This number is a unique universal serial number issued to every vehicle by the vehicle manufacturer. Within the 17-digit vin number are codes that indicate the vehicle's make and model, where the car was manufactured, a serial number, and even information about optional equipment.

A free car report will tell you one of two things about a used car's history:

  • That it's clean: Car reports for clean cars might show the title being renewed or issued several times. Where states require them, you might see emissions or safety test passes. If it's a newer car, there might only be a couple of records.

  • That it has potential problems that require further investigation: The car report might include evidence of flood damage, accidents, indications of odometer fraud, emission test failures, theft history, or evidence of heavy usage.

You want the facts before you buy a used car: facts about where the car has been and what it's been up to. Has that shiny, clean car in the dealer's lot been flooded? Was it a rental car or taxi? Did someone total it, ship it out of state and rebuild it? Then scenarios are more common than you may think.

A vehicle history report gives you all the car facts. You enter a VIN and you discover where the car has been registered, what the mileage was at each registration, if there have been any emission or safety test failures, and whether there are other problems with the car's history.

If you're going to be looking at a lot of cars, the multiple report option is the way to go. Accessing the "unlimited reports" option is easier to use than the other reports since it lets you keep a running list of vehicles so you can easily get back to the reports later.
