“PURCHASSE OF MY JEEP”

Edward G.
6/1/21

As advertised. Quick, easy, no hassles. Came to my house on time. Michael Mullinax was very professional. Took less than an hour to complete everything, including signing paperwork and presenting a check for the amount estimated on phone. Picked the vehicle up the next day. A pleasure doing business with him and them. Thank you "

“Scam, got charged $28.95 instead of $1.00! Closed down my cred it card!”

Judy A.
8/8/23

The agreement looks like you are paying $1.00 for a report on your car. However, you are charged $28.95! We received a text moments after I agreed to the $1.00. "Chase Fraud: Did (my name) charge $28.95 at VEHICLE HISTORY on 8/07? Reply YES or NO." We replied NO and my credit card was instantly closed down! Clearly, Chase has had problems with VEHICLE HISTORY in the past to send me a fraud alert. Now, I have to update all my auto payments relating to my card! To say that I'm angry is an understatement! Do not do business with this company, you will be sorry.

I have recently bought a car from my friends but he seemed so suspicious to me, and I started to think that he probably could cheat on me. He told me that everything is okay with his car and I trusted his word because we have been acquinted for more than ten years. Anyway, when I started to suspect him in cheating I applied to this company in order to check the vehicle history in order to understand what was going on with his car during the tim when he owned it. I checked everything quite fast and I want to thank this company for providing me with such an opportunity.

No unclear charges, everything is transparent. I looked for used cars, and I guess I've finally chosen one. Happy to come across teh site.

For a dollar, I got a ton of information about a vehicle I was interested in buying. I learned about any recalls it had had, how many owners/times sold as well as when and where it was manufactured and what "incidents" were reported on this vehicle. It is well worth the cost. Additionally, I got a several texts from a live person when I was looking ( late night on a Saturday) to make sure that I had received access to the information and would answer any qirlestions I might have had. Was nice that it wasn't an automated thing. What a great service.

I was given a very detailed report of the car I was interested in. And they even offer more facts about the car if you want them. It was also easy to understand and follow. I will be using this company for my car shopping!

Absolutely love this site. They are FREE, no hidden fees. It's been so nice especially when looking at buying a used car. It's been my go to website during the whole process. Works well, runs quickly, provides the information I need to make a smart buying decision. Also like the fact they bring in the Edmunds fair market value into the report as well. Saves me a lot of time.

I was looking for some more information on a used car with a price that seemed too good to be true. Vehicle History's website came up when I was searching for a free site to search a VIN number so I checked it out. I got detailed info on recalls, damage, repairs--everything I wanted to know without having to create an account or input my personal info anywhere! Thank you for this awesome resource!

I tried to do a VIN lookup on 10 other sites... only to find out they told me nothing helpful and wanted my money. It's hard enough affording a car, but to think about also having to pay to look into potential purchases is just annoying. I appreciate Vehicle History's thorough report, it has everything I want to know and more! So very easy to use and will be recommending this to everyone I know! Thank you for making a difficult task a little bit easier on people!

My wife's Infiniti just experienced catastrophic engine failure and we are looking to purchase an inexpensive cash car. We found a few we liked that seemed too good to be true. After researching more on the vin of the vehicles we found out why the deals seemed too good. There were a bunch of issues with the vehicle. I think this site just saved me $12,000. Thank you for the free, detailed report.

Awesome website!. Wished I had found it sooner before shelling $70 to Carfax for only 5 VIN number checks. Keep up the good work. I'll definitely recommend this site to all my coworkers and friends who are thinking about buying or selling their vehicle.

Most VIN requests set you up for extra costs for Carfax or some other lookup at a price. This one does it free. Very detailed and worth it.

I buy my cars used in order to save money and I don't want to spend money on vehicle history reports for every car I check out. At the same time, I know how valuable history reports are so I was really excited to hear about a website where I can get free reports. The reports on this site are excellent and easy to access. Highly recommended.

Get to know this site from my friend.
The info provided is as good as a 10 dollar carfax report. But it is completely free.
Really good resource when you search for the next used car.

Seconds before the site's pop-out asking if I liked the report, I was thinking I should let others know about vehiclehistory.com! Very thorough, a no-brainer user-friendly site, easy to understand, & absolutely FREE. Why go to carfux (oops) ;) ... when they charge fees for the same info? Thanx Vehiclehistory.com, you're BRILLIANT!

This page is kickass! I have thought I had a salvage title for my jeep for years. Turns out, it was just a reissue of a title. I wouldn't have known this except for this site, my car is worth 500 dollars more knowing this. This site literally saved me 500 bucks on the sale of my car. Have looked up other cars on here, its easy to link prospective buyers too who can check out your vehicle history easily! A+++ site, ALWAYS FREE! Would even consider paying for this service if it ever asked!
