Satisfied
July 10, 2016

I was satisfied with search, however I had a second car that I wanted to search, I was unable search for that vehicle because it stated " email already exists ". Question do I use a second email address?. Maybe your company should setup something like a login if you have created an account.

Surprisingly satisfied
December 6, 2020

I was looking to check some basic info of a car before purchasing from a private seller. I was shocked that this only cost me $1 from CarhistoryCalifornia. I got the basic things I needed in just a few minutes. Best one buck ever spent.

I was very satisfied with the report I received. It kind of put me at ease on my purchase of the vehicle. I just wish it would have provided me information if recall services were conducted on the vehicle. Other than that the report was excellent.

So easy to use

Was a little hesitant to use the website but it was definitely worth the time and the dollar to find out all the information on the jeep that I needed. I will definitely be recommending this website to friends and family. Thanks for everything

It was very simple and easy, but the part that says to agree or decline to the $180 part, you click on Decline so you don't sign up, It was slightly confusing, but past that it was very clear and well detailed. Worth the Two dollars I spent to get the extra information.

This website is quick and easy to use and gave me a full history report on a car I was about to buy on ebay. I say about to buy because the report showed it had a Salvage title and was involved in a wreck. So not only did this report prevent me from buying a "Salvaged" car on ebay, it only cost me $1.

Thanks!

ROBBED, SCAMMED!
August 20, 2015

Just like all the rest of the complaints, I too was charged $ 18.95 when I was told up front that the charge was $ 1.00. When I went to check out, the charges shown were $ 2.47. I should not have gone through with the transaction but being the trust worthy person that I am, I went through with it anyway. I am reporting this BOGUS co. To the Better Business Bureau, the Consumer Fraud Commission, the Federal Trade Commission. People and companies like this have to be put out of business and should be made to give back all the monies people like me have been " STOLEN " from!
I am also contacting my bank and requesting my money be refunded an for them to do an investigation.

Scammed
March 28, 2015

I can't even call it a company. When i called and complained about them ripping me off they told me they hated black people and jewish people. I was like wtf. What does race have to do with this. Never got a refund and it has been a month now. I have never been treated worse by anyone. There are 1000 of people that have been scammed. Don't believe the good reviews. They are lying through there teeth.

Quick info
July 21, 2016

I ran the report to check on general info in terms of features and to assure my vehicle was reported accurately ahead of selling it. The process was quick and painless and didn't make me feel as though I was overcommiting to something I really only casually needed.

I have run three different history reports on the same vehicle, Carhistory.us.org, Carfax, instaVin... I find that all are close with info but instavin was not enough information to make a impact on a decision with my opinion on the vehicle that I wanted to buy. Carfax and Carhistory.us.org came back with almost the exact information on the vehicle that I was looking for when trying to make a choice in buying the right car for myself. The only difference is I over paid on the other websites when I could have just paid a dollar from the get go through Carhistory.us.org, Thank you Carhistory.us.org

Great Customer Service
August 23, 2016

I got my car information quickly, but I wasn't aware that the $1.00 meant I was signing up for $18.95/month for a year. When I emailed them, Andy was so pleasant, apologized for the inconvenience and promptly cancelled the account. Very pleased with report and with the excellent service

The truck I am buying has a rebuilt title to it. I will be taking it to a service station in order to give it a thorough once over and see if it is even worth purchasing. I will be using this site once again when it comes to purchasing my next vehicle for sure.

Thank you so much

I came upon this site when I was searching for information about a car that we own. I couldn't locate the information on any of the print outs that we had. I thought that I would give it a try. The layout of the site was intuitive and covered the kind of information that I would want to have if I were buying a used car. It was thorough on so many aspects and, because we owned the car, I knew that it was accurate. I will definitely use this site again and enthusiastically recommend it to anyone who is considering purchasing a used car. It can save you a great deal of heartache that you could encounter later on or give you peace of mind that you will make a good deal.!
