If I completely fix the damage to my car will it show up on a vehicle history report?
Damage and Vehicle History
Even if you completely fix the damage to your car, it still may end up on a vehicle history report, although there is no guarantee. Vehicle history reports contain all kinds of information about the history of a car, such as odometer readings, title history, accidents, major repairs; even oil changes performed at service stations are on these reports.If the damage to your car was caused by an accident that was reported to the police or your insurance company, the accident will likely end up on your vehicle history report.
Even if the accident wasn't reported to the police or the insurance, the damage to your car will be reported by repair shops. So even if you completely fix the damage to your car, your repair shop may still report the damage to the private company that compiles the vehicle history report.
Anyone seeing previous damage and repairs on your vehicle history report may assume your used car is worth less, so it may be more difficult for you to get the price you want when selling it.
