Carfax shows vehicle has 2 reported…This shows 0

Carfax shows vehicle has 2 reported "minor" accidents to front end which were verified by physical inspection. This report shows no accidents!!! Waste of my time and $$$. I recommend sticking with Carfax. I ordered all three reports. Carfax, AutoCheck and this shit.
I WANT A FULL REFUND!

I've been searching and researching trying to find a used vehicle which is a miserable experience. I used Google yo help me find someplace to be able to track information by VIN and trustpilot showed up. The information was extremely helpful and I have a new "used" car now.

The experience was great

The experience was great. The amount of information provided well exceeded what was provided through carfax. Will easily return when the need arises again.

I just put 3 vin numbers in and the history report came back clean...no accidents on 2 of the reports. I have carfax and autocheck from the dealers I went to see the cars at. The 2 cars have minor damage on the other reports. I think this a total scam. Please do not use this service.

Surprise subscription! Know what you're getting into...

Signed up for a month so I could look up multiple cars while searching for a new vehicle. Based on the checkout page, I thought I was signing up for ONE month. Apparently not. Apparently they signed me up for a subscription even though I received no email saying that. I even looked for that language when I was checking out. If it had been clear a month meant a recurring subscription, I would have cancelled immediately because I only needed the ONE month. Now, five months later, I'm just seeing the recurring charges on my credit card. Such a scam. I was so happy with the service until I realized they were secretly sucking money out of my account. What a joke.

Dear Erica,

Thanks for the honest feedback.

To be clear, the monthly subscription terms are shown on the checkout page before payment, and renewal is how the plan is set up. That said, we never want anyone paying for a service they're not using - so we hear you, and we want to make this right.

Please email us at hello@zilocar.com with the email address on your account. We'll pull up your details, cancel the subscription, and talk through the charges directly. Let's get this sorted.

When your car search resembles looking through a hay stack

The vehicle report from Zilocar was the most comprehensive report I looked at and was the basis for making my picks for actually going out to see them.
I saved a significant amount of time and mileage this way. I found the Zilocar report brought out details other reports missed. I found my “needle in the haystack”.

The reports are excellent

The reports are excellent. Very comprehensive and I especially like the fact they comb several services, including Copart, and will put the pictures of any auctions they find. Super helpful if a rebuilt title is something you'd consider.
