VINsight vs VIN Decoder

Know a car's problems before you buy it. Scan or type any VIN and VINsight shows what owners have reported going wrong with that model year, which nearby years drew the most complaints, and every recall issued for the model — plus crash-test stars, specs and fuel costs. All from official U.S. government data, on one screen. KNOWN PROBLEMS, IN OWNERS' OWN WORDS - Owner complaints filed with NHTSA for the model year, grouped by part: power train, engine, electrical, brakes and more - How many complaints each part drew, with crash and fire counts - The newest reports owners wrote for each part, so you see what actually happened - A full sample report on a real car the first time you open the app, before you scan anything SPOT THE PROBLEM YEARS - Complaints and recalls for the same model, up to two years before and after - See at a glance which nearby year drew the most complaints and which drew the fewest EVERY RECALL, AND WHAT TO DO - Every recall NHTSA has issued for the year, make and model, newest first, with the campaign number, the risk and the remedy - A clear warning when NHTSA tells owners to park the car, or to park it outside - A shortcut to NHTSA's VIN lookup to see whether a specific car's recalls were repaired - New-recall alerts for a saved car: a notification when NHTSA issues a new recall for it THE FULL PICTURE IN SECONDS - Scan the VIN with your camera or type it in; every VIN is validated on your device - Decoded specs: year, make, model, trim, body, engine, horsepower, fuel type, transmission, drivetrain, assembly plant and more - NHTSA crash-test stars: overall, frontal, side and rollover - EPA fuel economy: city, highway and combined MPG, an estimated yearly fuel cost, and range for electric vehicles - A garage for the cars you own or are shopping for - Two cars side by side - Share a summary card, or export a PDF report for a buyer, a seller or your mechanic BUILT ON OFFICIAL DATA Everything comes from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Complaints are reported by owners and are not verified by NHTSA. Recalls are issued for a model, not for one car: confirm a specific car's repair status with its VIN at NHTSA or a dealer. The information is for reference and is not a safety guarantee. PRIVATE BY DESIGN VINsight shows vehicle information only. It never returns an owner's name, address or any personal data, and it is not a tool for finding people. Your garage and your recall alerts stay on your device. No account, no tracking. Made for used-car buyers, sellers, owners and mechanics. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

VIN Decoder: VIN Scanner helps you scan a VIN and unlock factory specs in seconds. THREE WAYS TO CAPTURE A VIN - Point the camera at printed or stamped VIN text — on the windshield, door jamb, dashboard, or documents. Clear handwriting works too. - Flip on Barcode mode for the bare Code 39 stripes and Data Matrix squares on door-jamb stickers. - Type the 17 characters by hand when a VIN plate is dirty, scratched, or out of reach. Every VIN is validated on your device before anything is sent anywhere: a bad scan is caught instantly, with a clear reason why. WHAT'S IN YOUR REPORT - Factory specifications for the decoded vehicle: make, model, model year, trim, body type, engine, cylinders, fuel type, drive type, transmission, plant and manufacturer details, doors, and more — sourced from Official NHTSA data. - Possible official NHTSA recalls for this decoded make/model/year. Recall campaigns match the decoded make, model, and model year — this is not a repair-status certificate for your exact VIN. This app does not certify title status, theft status, accident history, ownership, mileage, liens, or parts compatibility. SIMPLE, HONEST PRICING This app is paid-before-result: there is no free decoding of a VIN you scan or enter, and no surprises after. One built-in sample VIN shows the full report format as a free demo before you buy. Then choose what fits: - A single report for the one car you're serious about - A pack of 3 or 10 reports for a shopping weekend - VIN Pro, an auto-renewable subscription (monthly or yearly), for unlimited* reports while you hunt *A fair-use limit applies to VIN Pro to prevent automated abuse; normal personal use is unaffected.
