Information Needed
When you're ready to book your vehicle checkout, please provide the following:
Vehicle Identification Number (VIN)
The 17-character VIN is typically found at the bottom of the front windshield. Please get this information from the seller or when you view the vehicle yourself.
Vehicle Address
The location of the vehicle helps us determine where the checkout will take place. If we don’t have a qualified Automotive Feedback Specialist in your area, we’ll let you know promptly.

Once we assign an Automotive Feedback Specialist for your inspection, you’ll need to notify the seller of the Automotive Feedback Specialist’s name and expected arrival.
