Always research all cars before purchase, irrespective of the source. It is logical. Having as much information about a subject gives you an advantage while making decisions. Sometimes there may be more to a car than auctions would disclose. A normal AutoCheck/CarFax VIN report may also not include those specific auction details. A picture is worth a lot of words, so as often as possible one should seek comprehensive reports that include pictures of the vehicle pre-auction where applicable, or pre-shipment. On that note, for a variety of reasons it may not be possible to access pictures for all vehicles. 2 Likes

Tip History reports are not always 100% accurate or comprehensive. They are a very important and necessary tool They are merely tools to guide a buyer in the right direction. For instance if a VIN report states that a vehicle is a clean title, no flood, etc, that would be accurate or correct for most vehicles, but there are always exceptions. There are many vehicles with clean titles which were in reality flooded or in sometimes serious accidents. CarFax or AutoCheck do not manufacture the details in their database, they are gotten from many sources which most of the time report most information about the cars registered to them. That is why there is always a disclaimer in each report.

Tip Flood & Water Damage Often after major flood events like hurricanes or burst dams, the cars involved would be salvaged, this would show up in regular VIN reports from the major sources. Sometimes unsuspecting buyers may buy cars which did not go through this process. In one case, the buyer saw the pictures before the car was shipped and also had a clean title from the VIN report, but the owner noticed severe rust damage after 6 months of usage. It was subsequently discovered that the county the car was registered and likely used in was one of the most severely hit during hurricane Harvey.

Tip Always note the type of ownership record/use the car had or was put to. Generally, personally owned vehicles are most preferred. Fleet/lease vehicles would be next in the order of preference. Rentals may not always be properly maintained, but this may not always be the case. Commercial vehicles are usually Taxis, but may be used as branded vehicles, or for other forms of transportation. These often have above average mileage for obvious reasons.

Tip Not all forms of car damage are reported as accidents. If, for instance during inventory in a dealership, a car is scratched to a significant degree, it may be reported to the vehicle history sources as damage, but may not show up in the records as accidents. 1 Like

Hello Everyone We often get asked the same type of questions when intending car buyers get a VIN report and need further clarification. This thread would occasionally be updated with tips and important points to note when buying a car and requesting a VIN/ Vehicle History Report. We would use illustrations to aid the explanations as much as possible. Thank you! 1 Like |
