Full vehicle history report (accident, title & mileage)

Why we don't show accident or title history

Accident records, salvage and flood title brands, and odometer readings live in NMVTIS (the National Motor Vehicle Title Information System) and commercial databases. That data costs money to access, and we don't have it. Rather than fake it or upsell you on data you might already be able to check, we tell you plainly: this half is paid.

What a paid history report covers

• Title brands — salvage, flood, rebuilt, junk, lemon-law buyback.
• Reported accidents and damage — from insurance, police, and auction records (coverage varies by provider).
• Odometer history — to catch rollback or mileage discrepancies.
• Ownership & use — number of owners, personal vs. fleet/rental/taxi.

What to know before you pay

No single report is complete — providers pull from different sources, so a clean report is reassuring but not a guarantee. The cheapest NMVTIS-based reports (around $2–$10) often cover title and odometer well; pricier services add maintenance records and dealer data. Always pair any report with an independent pre-purchase inspection by a mechanic.

Free checks you should still do first

Before paying for anything, run the VIN through our free decoder to confirm the specs match the listing, check open recalls, and review owner complaints. If a seller's described year/trim doesn't match what the VIN decodes to, that's a red flag worth more than any report.
