About this app

Type a VIN, get the vehicle. Seventeen characters turn into a clean vehicle pass: make, model, year, trim, engine, transmission and assembly plant, decoded from the public NHTSA vPIC database, free and with no paywall.

Then the app does the part most others skip. It looks up NHTSA safety campaigns for that model year, puts the serious ones on top (park outside, do not drive) and keeps watching after you close the app: when a new campaign appears for a vehicle in your Garage, you get a notification.

What you get
• Free VIN decode with up to 45 real data fields; empty ones are never printed
• Safety campaigns with summary, consequence and remedy
• Park outside and do not drive warnings shown first, not buried
• Alerts for new campaigns on vehicles saved in your Garage
• Service log for oil, tires, filters, brake fluid, spark plugs and more
• Reminders by mileage and by date, whichever comes first
• Works offline: anything decoded once opens without a network

For anyone reading a used-car listing and wondering what the car actually is, and for drivers who want the next oil change and the safety picture in one place.

Private by design. No account, no sign-up, no cloud. Your Garage, mileage and service entries stay on this phone.

Good to know: data comes from the public NHTSA database and covers vehicles sold in the United States; distances are shown in miles. NHTSA lists campaigns by model year, so some may not apply to your exact vehicle or may already be fixed - confirm with a dealer using your VIN. Not affiliated with NHTSA.

Type your VIN and see what your car is carrying.
Free VIN lookup: specs, NHTSA safety recalls and a car maintenance log.

Type in a VIN and get the whole vehicle pass: specs straight from NHTSA public data, every open safety campaign for that model year, and the park-outside warnings sitting on top where you can see them. Save cars to the Garage and the app keeps checking for new campaigns after you close it. The service log tracks oil, tires and filters by mileage and by date, and never leaves your phone.
