Default VIN History

Does anyone know how these VIN check companies are able to obtain the information so quick? I would prefer doing it myself. I've already sent emails to my state's DMV. I wonder what they will say?

Insurance companies would be my best guess. They are ALWAYS looking to increase the bottom line so I would guess they contract to sell the info to these VIN companies as you call them.

Hey... settle down there sparky. I was only acknowledging your question, and I did try to answer your question w/my best educated guess.No smart-*** comments were intended, or are necessary in return.

We have a helpful and friendly forum here, and I for one would like to keep it that way. OK?
