What's in a VIN report?

A good-looking car can have a hidden history.

Go beyond the photos and the seller's description. A vehicle history report helps you know what to ask and what to check.

01

Accident & damage history

Look for reported collisions, damage, and insurance or salvage records that could affect the car's condition.

02

Mileage records

Compare recorded odometer readings over time and look for inconsistencies or possible mileage rollbacks.

03

Title & theft records

Check for reported theft and title brands such as salvage, rebuilt, or flood damage.

04

Ownership & use

Review available ownership changes and registration history to better understand how the vehicle was used.

05

Auction history & photos

See available past auction listings and vehicle photos that may reveal earlier damage or repairs.

06

Market value & specifications

Review available market values and vehicle details to help compare the asking price and confirm the car's specification.

Report contents depend on the vehicle and available source records. Not every incident is reported. Use the report alongside an independent vehicle inspection.

New to VIN checks?

All you need to start is the VIN.

A VIN is the vehicle's identification number: 17 letters and numbers that identify the car. Copy it exactly, or ask the seller to send it to you.

Before you search

A few things you might be wondering.

Clear answers to help you get started with your vehicle history report.

Need help? Contact us
What happens when I enter a VIN?

We search for the vehicle and show the available vehicle details. Check that they match the car you're looking at, then choose a report option to access the full vehicle history.

Is the vehicle history report free?

Starting a VIN search does not require payment. The full vehicle history report is a paid product. You can review the available report options and price before paying.

What if I don't know the VIN?

Ask the seller for the 17-character VIN, or look on the dashboard, inside the driver's door, or on the vehicle's registration and insurance documents. You'll need the VIN to search for a report.

Does every car have the same report details?

No. The information depends on the vehicle, country, and records supplied by data sources. Some reports have fewer records, and an unreported incident may not appear. A report should complement a vehicle inspection.

Can I see a report before buying?

Yes. Open the sample report to explore the format and types of information it can contain. The sample is an example; your car's records will be different.

How do I access my purchased report?

Once payment and report processing are complete, you can view the report online. Purchased reports are also available in the Reports section of your account. Contact us if you need help accessing a report.
