Testimonials from our customers

Was about to buy a used 2016 Camry but decided to get the badvin report first. Turns out the car had been in a serious crash and was declared a total loss by insurance, even tho carfax showed it as clean! Dodged a bullet on that one. ty badvin
After a bad experience buying a used car that turned out to have major issues, I now use Bad VIN to thoroughly check every vehicle i consider. It costs a bit more than other services but the detailed records and photos of past sales are wotrh it for the added peace of mind.
Ich hätte fast einen 2017 Mercedes-Benz C300 gekauft, bis der Bad Vin-Bericht zeigte, dass er als durch Überschwemmung beschädigt gemeldet wurde. Die detaillierten Schadensaufzeichnungen haben mich vor einem großen Fehler bewahrt!
Can't believe what badvin found on a used 2012 chevy silverado I almost bought - odometer had been rolled back 50k miles according to the mileage history! Carfax didnt show nething bout that. So glad I checked here first b4 handing over my hard earned $$
