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.
Direct

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.

Bad Vin's vehicle history report showed that the 2018 Audi A4 I was about to buy had been in a major accident that was not disclosed by the seller. The severity analysis helped me avoid a bad purchase. Great service!

Frequently asked questions
Information from junk yards and salvage auctions may detail major damage and repairs, potentially impacting the 2008 SAAB 9-3's value and safety, depending on the records obtained.
VIN decoding does not directly reveal maintenance history; however, it can identify the vehicle model and year, which you can use to access maintenance records through service databases with the VIN.
New vehicles often depreciate quickly due to rapid advancements in technology and consumer preference for the latest features, which make older models less desirable.
The last known odometer reading, if recorded, is noted in our reports, providing a snapshot of the 2008 SAAB 9-3's usage up to that point.
Mileage verification may confirm the 2008 SAAB 9-3's odometer reading, helping to check for fraud or tampering which can affect its value and performance, if data is accurate and complete.
Car depreciation is the decrease in value of a vehicle over time. It's a crucial factor to consider when calculating the total cost of vehicle ownership.
The last six digits of a VIN are the vehicle's unique serial number, which identifies the specific unit among others from the same model and production line.
Recall or defect reports, if available, indicate manufacturing flaws needing correction, impacting safety and possibly necessitating urgent repairs for the 2008 SAAB.
Vehicle values are typically derived from leading sources and might indicate trade-in, retail, and other value ranges, providing a pricing baseline for the 2008 SAAB 9-3, based on available data.
A VIN alone does not typically provide fuel economy details directly; however, it can identify the vehicle model and engine type, which you can cross-reference with fuel economy data from other sources.
