What is VIN Check?

Every car is assigned a 17-digit VIN (Vehicle Identification Number), that is unique to only that particular vehicle.

A vehicle's VIN is tracked by state agencies & auto industry partners to maintain a comprehensive database, with recordings of significant events in the vehicle's lifespan that may impact its value & reliability.

Where can I find
VIN?

  • 1. The easiest way to view it is to stand outside the vehicle on the driver's side and look at the corner of the dashboard where it meets the windshield.
  • 2. If the VIN cannot be found there, open the driver's side door and look at the door post(where the door latches when it is closed).

Why a VIN Check?

Knowing about the history of a used car before you decide to buy or sell, can help you make better savings down the road. You can find out if the car has had any major repairs, been involved in any accidents, its mileage history and so much more. This helps you make an informed decision.

Can I trust the
VIN Report?

Absolutely, whenever the car undergoes a repair, is in an accident, or is bought or sold, it is mandatory to enter the VIN number, which is how the history of the vehicle is tracked from a very comprehensive database that includes the state authority, police, insurance agencies & dealerships.

I used the VIN report to find out that the car I was buying was involved in a major engine repair and the report helped me negotiate a better deal with the seller! Totally worth it - a few bucks saved me a whole lot more.

The TruthScouts VIN report was a lifesaver, I would have never found out that the car I was interested in buying had been in 2 major car accidents - that were still pending with the police! Was a close save.

Very comprehensive report - right from the day of purchase till date, I was able to find out all about my own car - and get it appraised for the right value! I should also mention the customer service was great.

As a second hand car dealer, I never make a purchase without checking a VIN report. The truth scouts platform is both easy to navigate, the pricing is great (even for bulk checks) and reports are really comprehensive & professional.

I was amazed at the detail of the report - I was able to find out that the odometer reading was tampered with - while it left the seller in an embarrassing situation, I was able to get a better deal than the original one.

As a concerned parent, I used this license plate lookup service to check the history of my teenager's first car. The detailed report showed me the vehicle's maintenance records, which highlighted some overdue servicing. Thanks to this information, we were able to address these issues immediately, potentially avoiding costly repairs down the road. This service is a must-use tool for any car buyer or concerned vehicle owner.

The report revealed a series of minor accidents that the seller hadn't disclosed. This information allowed me to negotiate a fairer price and make a more informed decision. I'm grateful for the peace of mind this service provided.
