All those people after the hurricane reported to us their flood-damaged vehicle identification numbers. We put them into one place and by choosing that 17-digit VIN you can find out what other people told us about flood damaged cars.

It's going to be a great year for used-car prices. If something doesn't feel right, walk away. Find another vehicle.

It seems foolish, to me, to not want to have access to this information.

We face a very industrious group of con artists. No matter what the laws are, there are people who will see opportunities.

A mechanic is going to be able to look for signs of water damage that won't appear on a title document or a piece of paper. Things like water levels in the engine well, rusting wires. He can look inside your ventilation system and see if there's any debris.

We're really picking up the pace this year in light of the devastating floods and the growing demand for vehicle history information. We already have major product improvements that we'll be unveiling in the coming weeks. Our commitment to providing our customers with the most comprehensive vehicle history information available is stronger than ever.
