FAQ

Common Questions

Is the VIN check really free?
Yes — the preview report is 100% free with no credit card required. It includes vehicle specs, NHTSA safety recalls, and consumer complaints, all sourced from official U.S. government data. The complete vehicle history report (accidents, title, odometer, ownership) is available through EpicVIN and may require a purchase.
What does the free preview show?
The free preview shows full vehicle specifications, all open NHTSA safety recall campaigns, NHTSA consumer complaints (flagged by crash/fire/injury/death), a calculated safety score, and a VIN authenticity check. It does not include accident history, title records, or odometer readings — those are part of the full EpicVIN report.
What's the difference between the free preview and the full report?
The free preview uses NHTSA's public APIs, which cover vehicle specs, recalls, and complaints by make/model/year. The full EpicVIN report adds individual vehicle history: reported accidents, title brands (salvage/junk/flood), odometer readings, ownership history, lien records, and auction photos — all tied to your specific VIN.
Where do I find my VIN?
Check the dashboard (visible through the windshield on the driver's side), the door jamb sticker on the driver's door, your vehicle title or registration, or your insurance card. On older vehicles it may also be stamped on the engine block.
Is EpicVIN a legitimate provider?
Yes. EpicVIN is an approved NMVTIS (National Motor Vehicle Title Information System) data provider — a federal database designed to protect consumers from fraud, prevent stolen vehicle resales, and provide accurate vehicle history. EpicVIN has analyzed over 700 million VIN records.
How accurate is the recall and complaint data?
NHTSA recall data is sourced directly from manufacturer recall filings and updated regularly. Consumer complaint data reflects real reports filed by vehicle owners with NHTSA's Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) — the same source used by safety regulators and class-action investigators.
Does a clean preview mean the car has no problems?
Not necessarily. The free preview only shows recalls and complaints tied to that make/model/year — not accidents or title issues specific to your VIN. A "clean" preview with no recalls is a good sign, but we recommend the full EpicVIN report for a complete picture before any purchase.
Can I check any vehicle sold in the U.S.?
Yes — virtually all cars, trucks, SUVs, vans, and motorcycles sold in the U.S. since 1981 can be checked. Pre-1981 vehicles may have limited data since VINs weren't standardized to 17 characters until then.
