Vehicle Title History

This Search returns a car title history provided by the motor vehicle department in each state, showing all available titles issued for the subject vehicle in that state. Possible output includes copies of title documents, showing each change of ownership recorded in given state. Because some copies can be difficult to read (microfische or illegible copies), results can be faxed or mailed back to you. In addition to the normal input needed (see below), some states require more information, such as tag or owner name. Some states have strict laws regarding what information is released and who is eligible to receive information
