Car background check

Every used car has its background history, and as with every history there might happen that together with a car you are acquiring unwanted problems. At least a quick background check of the car you wish to buy is needed, if it is a second hand vehicle. The issues you should apply every effort to address before acquiring a car should at least cover the following:

VIN (Vehicle identification number) check

Colour changes

written off or not by an insurance company. Check insurance records for any accidental claims

Scrapped?

Service record checks

ownership - how many owners previously the car belonged to?

loan

accident history check
Buying the wrong car could land you in serious financial trouble. Best of all if a car gets verified by a third party company specializing in discovering all those things for you for a fee, who accepts responsibility for the professionaly performed checks they do for you.

DUI records

If you have a car, then you most likely have a DUI record, which is one of multiple kinds of public records and a part of your criminal history record, if any. Being public means that provided a certain procedure is followed, this sort of information can be accessed by any other fellow citizen. Worse thing if the DUI has resulted in a DUI conviction. For DUI cinviction information is even more accessible to an outsider through simply buying a local newspaper where the pertinent information is being published. Many courts also maintain online databases listing DUI convictions making their records accessible via the internet nowadays, which presumes no expenses or just a small nominal fee to be paid for this information you might wish were sealed. But even if your DUI record is ordered by the court to be sealed, you still can't do anything to have it erased from old newspapers or blogs that are practicaly outside whoever's control. Quite often employers look up for signs of your driving history on the Internet without ever asking your permission. Of course, doing so they infringe the law, but chance someone will discover you were screened this way are practically non-existent. More on accessing your DUI public records will be written in one of my next posts.
