CarHistory changed my life. It lets you know what all the car has been thru before even purchasing it, saves a lot of extra work and money in the long run
They advertise $1.00 for your initial report then $24.00 / mo. BS - They instantly charge your card $23.95! I know this because my CC sends me notifications of every charge, instantly. So I called and complained and the guy was an Jack*** telling me that it states right next to the credit card info section that they charge you the $23.95. Again BS. I read it back to him just as it appears in the screen shot below and he said it's only a 5 cent difference. No kidding but it said the 1st report was $1. He proceeds to tell me that the $1 is a deposit. Does anyone else see "DEPOSIT" on this page? No! In the end, this is FALSE ADVERTISING AND THUS A SCAM. By the time most people see their $23.95 charge - it's too late for a refund. STAY AWAY!

Very reasonable price, $1.00, to get basic information about a used car. I didn't notice if I inadvertently signed up for $18.95/month Volume Discount Package, which I do not want.
It seems to be a very accurate report and should help when I trade my car, I cannot find any discrepancies. Your charge is very reasonable. Thank you.
Read before you click. The Report is what I wanted but I thought it was going to be $1. Always read the fine print people.
This site has helped us decide to pursue this truck we've looked at. We were skeptical, but less so now.
Tip for consumers:
Look up vehicles on here before purchasing.

You think you agree for a $1 single report, but there is hidden an $18.99 X 12 Bull$#*! plan that if you do not UNCHECK it, you get screwed! They'll agree to stop the payments. Good luck getting your $17.95 back.
Very helpful in chat now waiting on last tid bits and couldn't be happier. I hope to get all the info as so far ive got a lot of it right away for really cheap!
I was very pleased with the information given it help me out a lot in knowing more important information about my vehicles History. Any other additional information that was necessary to my benefit!
I was happy to receive my results for a vehicle I was thinking of purchasing. It was very quick & easy! The results were more detailed than what I got from the dealership! Very happy & will defiantly use this site again during my vehicle search!
I was looking to check some basic info of a car before purchasing from a private seller. I was shocked that this only cost me $1 from CarhistoryCalifornia. I got the basic things I needed in just a few minutes. Best one buck ever spent.
The vehicle information provided was accurate, but it did not include the information that I was seeking (the buyer info). Also, it was advertised as only costing $1.00 for the report I got, however when I looked at my bank statement the following day, they had in fact, charged me $18.75.
Need a vehicles VIN quick... and I got it plus a lot more with CarHistory! Very thorough report with some helpful information.
Although it states you will only be charged $1 for the report then hits you with a $18 bill the report was pretty detailed. I was pretty satisfied
Thank you very much. Very helpful when buying a car. Your reports are very accurate and up to date. Thank you again

Great service real quick and easy everything was right forward and got me what I needed will use again if needed
Says $1 for first report but charges full monthly fee upon initial request for first report. I called number on my card to find out why it was declined. Carhistory attempted to bill $18.95 to my $10 prepaid card is why it was declined. I did see they posted a monthly renewal but I only want 1 report and was willing to cancel but not when I must request a refund. Does the first report really cost $18.95 with a full month subscription? I'd rather pay Carfax $40 than deal with misleading advertisers. Beware.
Service is pretty accurate all the information is based on the car what it looks like information on the vehicle recalls on the vehicle. Everything came out really nice, very detailed would recommend it to a lot of people
My review was excellent everything I asked for and moreI did not have to wait long I got information about auction water damage the motor the tires everything and sound thank youw
Full report with ownership information not provided prior to review screen. I do not have 100 characters for a review.
Very easy to work with, and quick to respond to any questions big or small. They make you feel like you made a good choice.

It was quick and easy. I got all the information that I needed within minutes. I really appreciate this service considering that there are others that provide the same information at a high cost.
The site was very easy to navigate around. And had lots of extras that were not been mentioned initially. I needed it fast and I did not have to wait long
I kind of flew threw the process, and if it weren't for fat fingering the card info, i would be signed up for over $240 worth of report for a year.? They are not clearly stating what you will get before submitting payment. The live chat, however averted finalizing everything. Thank you for that. I just have to watch now to make sure it actually happens. Still no report, so no review on this part.
