CARFAX for Police powers investigators, analysts and patrol officers with the world's largest vehicle history database – the CARFAX Vehicle History Report (VHR). The VHR is valued at up to $39 per report, but partner agencies have unlimited access at no cost to your agency.
VHRs provide information on all service dates, crashes, mileage, and location across the United States and Canada. Use a CARFAX VHR to solve hit and run, odometer fraud, robbery, homicide, missing persons, VIN cloning, major theft, drug trafficking, and crime involving vehicles.
VIN Alert
Set an alert for a VIN of interest and we’ll send you an instant notification when we obtain new information on the vehicle. We obtain new information on the vehicle, you receive an instant notification.
Adding a VIN Alert is quick and easy. Simply click the "VIN Alert" button at the top of each VHR on your desktop or mobile app. View your VIN Alerts to see if other agencies are tracking the same vehicle to collaborate on an investigation.
Partial License Plate Search
Upgrade your license investigations by inputting at least three digits and the state/province and let us do the work for you. We know you might not always have three consecutive license plate characters, so now you can complete the search by digit placement and position.
