Corrected Title The State DMV has issued a corrected title for the vehicle. Corrected title is defined differently depending on the state. In some states, a corrected title will be issued for removing or adding an owner’s name due to divorce, death or marriage. In other states, details about the vehicle, such as incorrect odometer readings, can result in a corrected title being issued. A corrected title can also be issued when a lien is placed on the vehicle’s title http://www.autocheck.com/vehiclehistory/autocheck/en/glossary. |

Storm Area Registration/Title Storm registration/title refers to information reported to us that a vehicle was registered or titled prior to the storm event in a FEMA designated storm damaged area. Storm events can include hurricanes, floods and other natural disasters. While a vehicle may have been reported as titled or registered in an affected area, it may not have been damaged by the storm, or it may have been moved to safety during the storm. We recommend a thorough professional inspection of the vehicle to confirm no storm damage. http://www.autocheck.com/vehiclehistory/autocheck/en/glossary#W

Run a Visual Check Perform a Visual Check of the Vehicle You’ve run the report, the vehicle checks out and you are ready to take time out of your day to go see the vehicle. You can look for yourself to make sure you are catching everything you can about the vehicle, including: Waiting for the rain to stop before you trek out to the dealership or seller’s home. A wet car can hide a lot of paint and body issues. Taking the car on local streets and a highway to get a feel for different speeds. Testing all the switches and knobs. Checking the radio buttons to make sure they are tuned to local stations; if they aren’t, it could be a sign that the car has come from a different area. A look at the GPS programming can also provide clues. Looking to make sure the car has all the accessories and options that were advertised. Little things such as wheel locks are easily lost and can be costly to replace when needed.

Get a Vehicle Inspection Get a Vehicle Inspection If you are close to making a purchase, don’t miss the critical step of taking the vehicle to your local mechanic to check it for hidden mechanical issues. AutoCheck vehicle history reports can show you reported issues, but it does not account for any issues that haven’t been reported to private and government sources.

A good mechanic can detect deferred maintenance as well as current issues such as a burned-out check-engine or antilock braking system light that could be part of a bigger problem. These problems could lead to hidden costs and may even diminish the value of the vehicle. Make sure to have any used vehicle you're considering to buy inspected. Even if you are buying from a dealership, always have a nonaffiliated mechanic look over the car. http://www.autocheck.com/vehiclehistory/autocheck/en/autoshoppers-guide#perform-visual-check |

Secure Financing Secure Financing With all of the excitement of searching for and locating the perfect vehicle, it is easy to get swept up in the moment, especially if you think you have found the right one. However, it is important to keep your feet on the ground when paying for the vehicle and getting it insured. If you are one of the millions of consumers who are not paying cash for your vehicle outright, you will need to look into financing. It is important first to make sure you have a contract that spells out exactly the price being paid for the vehicle. The contract should include any dealership fees or state fees. Make sure the VIN is included and correct on the document and that it states the vehicle is being sold “as-is” if from a private seller. http://www.autocheck.com/vehiclehistory/autocheck/en/autoshoppers-guide#perform-visual-check

Banks, credit unions and dealerships all offer car loans. You should never focus solely on the monthly payment; it is important to consider the total price of the car and the terms of the loan. You should multiply the monthly payment amount by the term of the loan to find out the true cost of the vehicle transaction. Once you decide to enter the market for a used vehicle, make sure you check your credit score to see what type of financing for which you qualify. The better your credit score, the more competitive the interest rate you can receive. You can check your local banks and credit unions for finance rates; you also can shop financial institutions online and get preapproval for a specific loan amount. Often, you may find the best finance rate at the dealership, since they have relationships with many lenders that they work with every day. http://www.autocheck.com/vehiclehistory/autocheck/en/autoshoppers-guide#perform-visual-check |

Insure Your Vehicle Insuring Your Vehicle You should remember to factor insurance into the cost of owning your vehicle by calling ahead before you make a purchase. The easiest way to do this is to call the company you are currently using and find out the rate. Often, you will be trading in or selling your old vehicle and will need to remove it from your policy anyway. If you don’t want to keep your current insurance provider, it is a painless process to visit sites online to compare quotes. You should make sure that you cancel your old policy (there should not be a fee for this) and that the new policy has all of the features that you need. http://www.autocheck.com/vehiclehistory/autocheck/en/autoshoppers-guide#get-vehicle-inspection |

Search for vehicle history records with a valid US license plate number We’ve made it easier than ever to get an AutoCheck® vehicle history report. You can search with a vehicle identification number (VIN), or you can search with a valid license plate number and state. Searching via a license plate and state is a terrific option if you can’t find the VIN, it’s hard to read or your car has no VIN. http://www.autocheck.com/vehiclehistory/autocheck/en/search-by-license-plate

Re: Learn About Title Brands And Say Goodbye To Guesswork by Export1: 1:30pm On Jun 07, 2016 |
In the box below, simply enter the license plate number and state. Once the information is submitted, records will be returned on that plate. Some searches may return multiple records. This often indicates that a vehicle owner has transferred his or her license plate from vehicle to vehicle. For instance, five years ago you may have purchased a Toyota sedan and you recently traded it in for a Honda SUV and kept your current license plate. Both vehicles will be tied to the same plate. http://www.autocheck.com/vehiclehistory/autocheck/en/search-by-license-plate |
Re: Learn About Title Brands And Say Goodbye To Guesswork by Export1: 1:30pm On Jun 07, 2016 |
If multiple records are returned, simply select the vehicle record from the drop-down box and get the report. Then begin enjoying all of the unique benefits of choosing a vehicle history report from Experian Automotive to help you understand, compare and select the right vehicle. No VIN? Check the vehicle history with a license plate and state instead. http://www.autocheck.com/vehiclehistory/autocheck/en/search-by-license-plate |
