Well it wouldn't be the first time I've been wrong....

I know you can get the vehicle dealer service records from members with access to that data. I don't recall seeing open car fax.

Good luck with your search.

Really!!!! Gee I'm sorry I can't live up to your expectations! Just thought I would ask a favor every one else does.... Also maybe I should not ask someone to look at a car out of state for me.. God forbid!

Report cost

If you create fewer than 7 vehicle listings per year, the AutoCheck vehicle history report will be included in your listing for free. For high-volume sellers who create 7 or more vehicle listings per year, AutoCheck offers several subscription levels. The table below includes more details.
You could just list the car you want and get the report for free. Seems like this would work.

It's been outlawed on this site for quite some time, it is "stealing".

You may also want to ask for someone to run a VIS report-- the dealer record on recalls and warranty work.

Good luck-
