why do you need the vin number

Asked by bajagolf Dec 18, 2016 at 02:42 PM

Question type: Car Selling & Trading In

1 Answer

The VIN is needed to verify each vehicle listed on CarGurus is unique (not listed somewhere else on the site) as well as pulling the vehicle's history. Cars that have salvage, rebuilt, or reconstructed title histories, were prior theft vehicles, have odometer discrepancies, or fire, flood, or hail damage will not have price analysis. The VIN is needed to verify this information.
