# Vinreport.io

> Vinreport.io sells vehicle history reports for US vehicles and offers a free VIN check and decoder. A VIN lookup shows a vehicle's build specifications and how many records exist for it; the paid report details reported accidents and damage, title brands (salvage, flood, junk, rebuilt), odometer readings over time, estimated owners, service records and manufacturer recall information.

Key facts:
- A VIN is the 17-character vehicle identification number used on all vehicles sold in the US since 1981; it never contains the letters I, O or Q.
- The free check returns decoded specifications and a record count; the full history report is paid (single reports and multi-report packs).
- Reports cover cars, motorcycles, trucks, motorhomes, ATVs and scooters, and follow the vehicle across every US state it was titled in.
- The site is available in English, Spanish, Polish, French and Russian; English URLs are unprefixed and other locales live under /es, /pl, /fr, /ru.
