Abstract
Provided is a system for verifying a vehicle for sale on a smart phone. The system includes a VIN decoder capable of decoding a VIN to determine the vehicle year, make, and model of the vehicle for sale. The system further includes a defect predictor and defect database configured to identify defects in vehicles having similar characteristic data to the vehicle associated with the VIN. A computer readable medium is downloadable onto the smart phone to configure the phone to communicate information corresponding to a captured image of the VIN from the vehicle to the VIN decoder. The computer readable medium further configures the smart phone to receive a signal including the characteristic data of the vehicle associated with the VIN, and defects identified by the defect predictor. The computer readable medium further configures the phone to display the received characteristic data and defects.
