Our Services
At Inspections Report, we provide detailed history and inspection reports to help you make informed vehicle purchases.
Vehicle Details
Each online VIN check report provides essential details about a vehicle's exact specifications and manufacturing origin. This includes the car's make, model year, body style, color, country of assembly, odometer reading, class, type, engine displacement, original window sticker, fuel type, engine size, and smog check history.
Accident and Repair History
VIN lookups generate car history reports that provide essential details about a vehicle’s past, including its country of origin, manufacturer recalls, accident history, lien records, sale records, specifications, salvage status, major repairs, full service and maintenance history.
Ownership Records
An online vehicle title search provides a fast and convenient way to access key ownership details. It includes information on previous owners, the date of first registration, mileage records, branded title status, last title transaction, liens, and even lost vehicle titles.
Salvage History
Salvage records provide essential details about vehicles that have been severely damaged or declared a total loss. If a vehicle sustains extensive damage exceeding 75% of its value, its worth decreases significantly, making it unsafe to drive. These records indicate that repairs may be necessary but could be costly or impractical.
Ownership History
This section includes details on past and current vehicle ownership, maintenance history, title information, registration records, and more. It may also provide the owner's name, contact details, phone number, and home address.
Lemon Status History
A lemon car is a vehicle with multiple manufacturing defects. By conducting a VIN lookup, you can quickly determine if a vehicle's safety, performance, or value is significantly impacted by serious issues. If a car is classified as a lemon or junk vehicle, the owner may be eligible for a replacement or a refund.
