How to Look Up a Used Car's Service History

Looking at phone in car dealership

When picking out a pre-owned vehicle, it’s very useful to look at the Nissan service history. This will let you know how well the vehicle was cared for, and what kind of service or repair support it will need in the future. Sansone Auto is here to help you explore the best options for looking up a pre-owned vehicle’s service history.

Ask the Dealership

In many cases, the dealership will provide the vehicle’s service history when you express interest in the car. By giving you insight into the vehicle’s history, they’re providing the peace of mind that will make it easier to trust the vehicle and the seller. If we have the information on hand, our dealers will be happy to share your vehicle’s service history.

Use a Record Provider

If the dealership doesn’t have access to those records, you may decide to go through a service that provides records, like CARFAX® or AutoCheck®. These records often offer a lot more information than how regularly the vehicle was serviced. They can tell you how many previous owners the vehicle has had, if there have been any accidents in the vehicle’s past, and even if there is any indication of flood damage.

You may decide to use these services even if the dealership does provide a history, simply for the extra information. All you need to do is enter the vehicle’s VIN or its license plate and state to get started. At Sansone Auto, many of our used cars already come with a CARFAX® Vehicle History Report™, and we offer many CARFAX® One-Owner vehicles as well.
