Please help can someone please run a vin search on



1G8ZG5284SZ240843 I need information before I buy a car for my son's college car history is important and Money is tight So I can't make a mistake. The dealer is telling me it's a one owner vehicle. How can I trust them?

Any help would be appreciated.



Thanks Augie


There's a service called CarFAX, but you have to be a member. I think they offer the first VIN search for free. Check it out at

I've done that, when I was looking to buy.

You'll have a record for when the title was first transferred to you name, and (in Texas at least) when you get it inspected, if you have to do an emissions inspection, that shows up. Now that I don't live in Harris County, my inspections don't show up.

Anyway, with those emissions inspections, you'll see the mileage on the CarFax report.

Anybody used this service before? My vin comes back with 5 records although I am the original owner. I am curious to know what is being address by these "records" but not so interested in paying to find out!!! :-)
