FAQ

FAQ

Which countries does Europe check cover?

Most European-origin vehicles, but completeness depends on country, VIN and available sources.

Why is NHTSA not enough for Europe?

NHTSA is useful for basic VIN decoding, but European vehicles often need a separate European decoder and sources.

Will it show every repair?

No. Private repairs and unrecorded events may be missing, so the report should be combined with inspection.

When should I choose the full report?

If the vehicle is already in Moldova or may have passed through the USA, the full report is safer.

Do not buy a car without context

One check can surface mileage, damage, legal restrictions and import traces that may not be visible in the listing.
