BENEFITS OF VEHICLE HISTORY REPORT?
A Vehicle History Report will provide you all the information you need to know about a vehicle’s past. So when you finally find your dream car, you can be confident that it’s devoid of any major problems and proves to be the perfect choice for you. Each VehicleCheckCanada report checks for:
A vehicle history report can inform you of any previous structural damage which the vehicle may have suffered. You will find out whether or not the vehicle in question has been in a wreck, if there was structural damage, and if the frame or any other major components were rebuilt.
VehicleCheckCanada will inform you of the last reported mileage of the vehicle in question. Here you will see how many miles the vehicle had on it on the last report, an important factor when it comes to determining the remaining lifespan of the vehicle. Here you will also see if an odometer rollback was performed on the vehicle.
A salvaged vehicle is defined as a form of vehicle which has been damaged or wrecked, and has been determined as a total loss by an insurance company that has paid a claim on it. This provides you with valuable information in terms of the safety of the vehicle, as well as its history.
Knowing what the service history of the vehicle in question is like is always important when buying a used vehicle. Does your vehicle have a brand new transmission that was just replaced, or does it have a 10 year old transmission that is on its last legs? This is an example of the type of info you will have access to here.
If there was an insurance claim made on your particular vehicle in the past, you will find out all about it. Here you will find out what the insurance claim was, why it was filed, and how much money was paid out for the claim in question. VehicleCheckCanada has access to both private and public insurance claims for your vehicle.
When you buy a second hand vehicle, you probably want to know who previously owned it and what it was used for. Here you will find out if the vehicle was a short term lease, if it was a long term purchase, or if it was used for other purposes, such as for a Taxi company or even for policing purposes. This can help provide you with a good picture of the possible state of the vehicle.
Knowing whether or not your used vehicle has frame damage is always important before making a purchase. Frame damage can be extremely expensive to fix, something that will affect your overall budget. Previous frame damage, even when repaired, can still pose some serious risks to the occupants of the vehicle.
A total loss is also known as a write off. This is when a vehicle suffers from damages, and then has salvage or repair costs which exceed the insurance value, therefore making it more cost effective to simply replace the vehicle as a whole than to file an insurance claim.
Of course, something that you as a used car buyer never want to do is to buy a stolen vehicle. Believe or not, even if you are not aware that you are driving a stolen vehicle, you can still land in hot water for doing so. Knowing that you have a legal car is always important. VehicleCheckCanada will inform you whether or not the vehicle was reported as stolen, and if so, when it was stolen and from whom
VehicleCheckCanada will also inform you if your vehicle has suffered any hail or flood damage in the past, when and if it was repaired, and whether or not there were any insurance claims made on the damage. These types of damage can lead to structural damage, so it’s quite important to be aware of.
Here you will also find out if the air bags in the previously owned vehicle were ever deployed. If the airbags were deployed, you will find out when and why it happened. You will also receive information on other damages related to the airbag deployment, as well as if and when they were replaced.
Of course, an issue with buying second hand vehicles is that the warranties are often expired or voided for one reason or another. It’s always better to purchase a vehicle that still has a certain warranty time on it, but if your vehicle doesn’t have a warranty anymore, at least you can easily find out about it
Odometer rollbacks are more common with used vehicles than one might think. It’s a sneaky tactic used by sellers to try and make it seem like there are less miles on the vehicle than there actually are. An odometer rollback check will inform you of the true mileage on the vehicle in question.
If the used vehicle in question was in any way branded as a lemon or a piece of junk, you will find out about it. This can help prevent you from spending thousands of dollars on a vehicle that is going to need a lot of repairs or maybe not function at all.
VehicleCheckCanada will also inform you whether or not your car had multiple owners previous to your purchase. The more owners the vehicle had before you, the more likely it is to have some sort of damage.
Vehicles that have been branded refers to a permanent designation assigned to the vehicle. These are applied to a vehicle’s title, registration, or permit documents, and they show that a vehicle was written off due to some form of damage such as a collision, flood, or fire.
If the vehicle you are purchasing has faulty airbags, brakes, or anything in between, you will know about it. Does the vehicle in question have any recalls that have been made? Was the vehicle actually returned to the factory and outfitted with the proper parts? It’s a good way to know whether or not the vehicle in question is safe to drive.
Knowing how many miles were driven per year is always good. This can give you a rough picture of the current shape and age of the vehicle, as well as how long you can expect it to last.
VehicleCheckCanada will also help you find out whether your vehicle is domestic or imported. If it is important, you will be provided with all relevant details in relation to the import.
