LemonInspect sample report preview
This page lets you preview how the report can help before purchasing a vehicle. It first organizes the VIN records, accident and flood-related indicators, mileage flow, and recall status, then turns areas that are difficult to verify from records alone into seller questions and service-center inspection items. If you skip this process, you will be assessing risk based only on the listing advertisement and the seller’s explanation.

Key report sections
Items checked in the sample report
The items below are examples showing the order in which a buyer may read and use the report. The purpose is not to determine that a vehicle is good or bad, but to separate what has been checked through records from what needs additional verification.
Check vehicle basic information
Compare the model, model year, and basic information identified by the VIN with the listing description. If the description and records match, it provides a basis to continue reviewing; if they differ, it becomes a question to confirm with the seller first.
Accident and flood-related indicators
Review public records and history for possible accidents, flood damage, or major repairs. The report does not make a definitive determination about the vehicle’s condition, but it helps narrow down what to check further in photos or during a service-center or body-shop inspection.
Mileage record flow
Check mileage records and gaps by date and compare them with the seller’s explanation. This does not guarantee the odometer reading, but it helps assess whether the records appear consistent or whether additional explanation is needed.
GCC inspection questions
Cooling, A/C, tires, battery, oil, and the underside must be checked by seeing the actual vehicle. Rather than making a definitive determination about the condition of these items, the report organizes them as questions to ask a service center or the seller.
How the report connects to pre-purchase checks
The sample is not the full data from an actual report; it is an example showing how report items can lead into pre-purchase checks. It focuses on distinguishing items that can be reviewed through records from items that need to be checked on site.
| Report item | Sample content | Pre-purchase use |
|---|---|---|
| Vehicle identification | VIN, model, model year, specifications, ADAS equipment information | First check whether the listing description matches the basic information in the records. |
| History indicators | Records related to insurance accidents, special accidents, special use, and recalls | Determine whether to request additional photos, a performance inspection report, repair history, and underbody/panel inspection. |
| Mileage | Mileage records by date, data providers, gaps, and sections suspected of manipulation | Do not look only at the dashboard reading; check it together with the seller’s explanation and additional supporting evidence. |
| Additional inspection points | Current vehicle condition that is difficult to verify from records alone | Move current conditions not confirmed in the report into the repair shop inspection items. |
What to distinguish when viewing the sample
The sample report shows how far the actual report can help, and where seller confirmation or a repair shop inspection becomes necessary. Without this distinction, it is easy to mistakenly think that even current conditions not found in the records have been confirmed, and that risk may return as repair costs after purchase.
The report helps distinguish between what can be verified through records and what requires a repair shop inspection.
First check accidents, flood damage, mileage, and recalls through records, then compare them with the seller’s explanation.
Do not make conclusions about cooling, A/C, tires, battery, oil, and underbody condition from the report alone; organize them as inspection questions.
The final purchase decision should be made by reviewing the report, seller documents, vehicle photos, and repair shop inspection results together.
Important notice
The report is material that supports purchase decisions.
The report helps organize available records and create questions to ask the seller and repair shop. It does not guarantee the current vehicle condition or replace a repair shop inspection. The final purchase decision should be made by reviewing the report, seller documents, vehicle photos, repair shop inspection, and import requirements together.
