VIN history check

Can someone run a VIN history for me??
Ive done a few free checks that will tell you what the vehicle is and I have come up with a few differant results. One says its an XL, one says its a Lariet, one says its a King ranch. One site came up that it is not a valid VIN. Anyone have a subscription that can check the vin for me??

It is a King Ranch and has a branded title. Back in 2008 the driver's window switch was replaced under warranty and the brake booster recall was done in 2009. That's all the repair history I can get.

That helps, thanks! Was that an oasis report?

Thinking of buying this truck, but its over 2 hours away and the price seems too good.

Yeah is is OASIS. You are aware the branded title means it was totaled right?

No problem. It still may be a good truck depending on the quality of repairs done. I have seen repaired cars that I could not tell where they were wrecked and I have also seen repaired care that should not be allowed on the road. I would definitely look at it in person and go over it with a fine tooth comb. Look for mismatched paint, runs or trash in the paint, mis-aligned body panels, missing or bent brackets, damaged wire harnesses, etc.

Thanks for the info. If the repairs were done right, it would not bother me. I am looking at financing the purchase, most banks may not finance it if it has a salvaged title. Im still looking around, hope to find what I am looking for.

Are you able to see what gears it has? I cant find what I am looking for, so I might check this one out for the heck of it. Looks like a sharp truck from the pics

VIN history (Oasis) report

Looking at a used Fusion. Could someone do a VIN history (Oasis) report on this:

Thank you.

Honestly, FTE users who work for Ford have gotten into a lot of trouble in the past for running OASIS reports. Ford cut off access to them for FTE and serious consequences have befallen Ford employees to continued to run them by request.

A persons best bet is to go to their local Ford dealership and have the OASIS report run.
