Active Safety System
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Type

A TPMS is an electronic system designed to monitor the air pressure inside the pneumatic tires on various types of vehicles. TPMS can be divided into two different types - direct and indirect. Direct TPMS employ pressure sensors on each wheel, either internal or external. The sensors physically measure the tire pressure in each tire and report it to the vehicle's instrument cluster or a corresponding monitor. Indirect TPMS does not use physical pressure sensors but measure air pressures by monitoring individual wheel rotational speeds and other signals available outside of the tire itself.

Testimonials from our customers

As a first time used car buyer, I was nervous about getting ripped off. The vehicle report from badvin gave me so much more confidence - it confirmed the car had a clean history and the mileage lined up. Such a relief to have that peace of mind.
I buy rebuilt title cars at copart to fix and resell. was hoping BadVin reports wud have more detail on damage history to help me value cars before bidding, Carfax is better for that. but for clean title vehicles it seems pretty useful
Purchased a badvin report before buying a used Lexus RX 350. It revealed a minor accident the seller hadn't mentioned. I still bought the car but used the info to negotiate a lower price. Well worth the cost for the leverage it gave me!
I always rely on badvin to check out any used car before I buy. It gives such a complete history, including past accidents, service records, recalls and much more. Feel so much more confident as a used car shopper having this info.

Frequently asked questions
A Monroney label, commonly known as a window sticker, provides detailed information about a vehicle's specifications, features, and pricing when new.
Total loss is usually determined when the cost of repairing the vehicle exceeds a certain percentage of its value before the damage occurred, as decided by the insurance company, if such data is recorded.
A VIN decoder can reveal engine details such as the engine size, configuration, and fuel type, which are encoded in specific characters of the VIN.
To maximize value, consider buying a vehicle that is a few years old, as it has already undergone significant depreciation but likely remains reliable.
For importing or exporting 2008 SUBARU vehicles, the VIN is crucial for compliance with international regulations, ensuring the vehicle meets safety, emission, and manufacturing standards of the importing country.
A vehicle history report may provide detailed information about a vehicle's past, including ownership, service history, and any significant incidents like accidents or theft, depending on data availability.
Our vehicle history reports may indicate if the 2008 SUBARU vehicle was previously used in commercial services like a taxi or rental car, which may affect its condition and value, if such usage is recorded.
