Frequently asked questions
What is a CARFAX Vehicle History Report?
Millions of consumers rely on CARFAX Reports every day to determine whether to buy a used car. The report contains information about the car, like whether or not it’s been in an accident, if there are any open recalls, past service history, and more.
Do all vehicles have a CARFAX report?
CARFAX reports are available for vehicles manufactured since 1981, when the 17-character VIN became standard. CARFAX has information about cars and light trucks, though some information for other vehicle types may be reported to CARFAX, too. CARFAX reports are powered by the CARFAX database – believed to be the world’s largest vehicle history database – containing billions of records from more than 112,000 domestic and international sources.
What is a VIN?
VIN stands for a car’s Vehicle Identification Number. A VIN consists of 17 characters and serves as a unique identifier for a specific vehicle. At CARFAX, you can use either a VIN or a license plate and state to get a CARFAX report.
Where is my VIN Located?
A VIN can be found on the driver-side door, near where the door latches, as well as on the lower-left-hand corner of the dashboard, in front of the steering wheel. If you own the car, you can find it on the title, registration card, or insurance documents.
