Michael was instrumental in working thru the complexities of the VinAudit website in order to re-establish my account with a new email address and password. Very much appreciative with the time he took to ensure the solution was implemented and functioning appropriately.

VINAUDIT should allow a logged in user to change their email and password from within their user session. I was sent a change password link that continues to fail with the error message "vinaudit.com says Invalid user name or password" when trying to change it.

I spoke with Michael regarding my vehicle’s salvage record, and he provided a clear and detailed explanation that helped me fully understand the report. He was professional, knowledgeable, patient, and very accommodating throughout the conversation, taking the time to answer all my questions without rushing me. VinAudit report itself was comprehensive, accurate, and easy to understand. I truly appreciate the excellent customer service and the level of detail provided. Based on this experience, I highly recommend VinAudit to anyone looking for a reliable vehicle history report, and I will definitely use their service again in the future.

VinAudit are huge scammers, they have their reps comb selling sites and then have them reach out to sellers telling them they will buy the car as long as they provide a VinAudit report that the seller needs to buy and provide before the inquirer will complete the purchase, once the VinAudit report is provided the supposed buyer disappears, we set up 20 different cars on various sites from AutoTrader to CarGurus and their reps were all over us requesting VinAudit reports, VinAudit reports are a scam, they are often incomplete and dealers will not use them or accept one of their reports, unlike CarFax who do provide genuine complete reports on 99.9% of all vehicles in Canada and the USA, VinAudit will provide you a document that is sketchy at best and looks like they drew what little info they have off of CarFax, do not trust anyone asking you for a VinAudit report, if they are not willing to accept a CarFax report they are scamming you for sure!

Hi, Thank you for taking the time to share your concerns. We're sorry to hear about your experience. We understand how frustrating it can be if someone claiming to be a prospective buyer requests a specific vehicle history report and then stops communicating. We want to clarify that VinAudit does not employ representatives to contact vehicle sellers or encourage them to purchase our reports. We do not participate in or condone these types of scams. Unfortunately, fraudsters sometimes impersonate legitimate businesses or request reports from various providers as part of vehicle marketplace scams. In fact, because we take these scams seriously, we have published a warning on our website to help protect consumers: "Scam Alert: Beware of requests for VinAudit reports on unauthorized websites!" We encourage anyone who encounters suspicious requests to review this information and contact us so we can investigate. Your statement that you created multiple listings and received requests for VinAudit reports is something we take very seriously. We'd appreciate the opportunity to investigate further. If you're willing, please contact us with any relevant details, such as screenshots of the conversations, the marketplaces where the messages were received, the email addresses of the individuals involved, VIN or any other information that could help us identify potential misuse of our brand. We'll review everything thoroughly and take appropriate action where possible. Regarding the quality of our reports, VinAudit compiles vehicle history information from numerous trusted data sources, including government agencies, NMVTIS, insurance, salvage, auction, and other commercial data providers. However, no vehicle history provider including any provider in the industry can guarantee that every event in a vehicle's history has been reported, as the completeness of a report depends on the information submitted by participating data sources. VinAudit is a legitimate vehicle history provider that has served millions of customers over the years. We take reports of fraud and misuse of our name seriously and are committed to protecting consumers. Thank you again for bringing this to our attention. We hope you'll reach out so we can learn more about what you experienced and investigate your concerns. You can reach us at 1-800-480-4428 or email us at [email protected] Best regards, Marinel Paclian Sr. Operations Administrator VinAudit.com, Inc.

USELESS. I paid for 5 utv reports that will all be useless. Every section states that information may not be complete. Even the specs are blank DO NOT waste your money!! Update: They responded via email saying "Our system is currently configured to collect and process data specifically for standard vehicles. Unfortunately, it does not cover non-standard vehicles such as trailers, RVs, motorcycles, or boats, which is why the information available for your vehicle was limited" The link was specifically for utv/atv. So why advertise you do that if your system does not actually do that. They gave me a credit for another useless report. I will dispute it with my credit card. Ugggg

One of the few providers connected to NMVTIS, which gave me much more confidence when checking a vehicle history. The pricing per report is probably among the best available, especially considering the level of information provided. Customer support deserves special mention — fast, professional, and genuinely helpful. They responded quickly to my questions and helped clarify details without simply sending generic replies. The reports are easy to understand, well-structured, and gave me useful insight when researching a vehicle history. Highly recommended!!!
