- Summary:
- You can run a VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) online, but it likely won't provide all the information you need.
- Many believe vehicle records are accessible with a quick online search. However, these records are protected under federal law, particularly 18 US Code 2725.
- Complete vehicle information can only be obtained by authorized recipients, which usually requires in-person verification, signing a form, and showing ID.
- This process ensures that vehicle information isn’t used for fraudulent purposes like stalking or identity theft.
- Steps to Check a Vehicle’s History:
- DMV Visit:
- Go in person to the DMV (or Secretary of State’s office) to request a vehicle history report.
- You’ll need to sign an information request form, pay a fee, and provide your ID.
- The DMV report will include liens, ownership history, but may not have current stolen vehicle information.
- Police Department Visit:
- For the most up-to-date stolen vehicle records, visit your local police department. The DMV records may not be as current.
- Bring your photo ID and the VIN number for a VIN inspection.
- Remember: the police will only have details about stolen vehicles, not ownership, liens, or salvage records.
- Check NMVTIS (National Motor Vehicle Title Information System):
- NMVTIS is a federal database that tracks salvage vehicles, export-only vehicles, and junk vehicles.
- You can access this system to confirm if a vehicle is flagged as salvage, junk, or for export only.
- Even if the vehicle looks fine, it could still be marked as parts-only, so checking this is essential.
- DMV Visit:
- Why In-Person Checks Are Required:
- Security & Privacy: Federal law protects vehicle records, so they can’t be accessed over the phone or online without verification.
- The inconvenience of an in-person visit can save you from buying a vehicle with hidden issues or without a valid title.
