Answer 3

I'm not aware of one, depending on what you want to know a mercury dealer may be able to help you. Here's a breakdown of common vin elements:
1st number country of origin (1=us,2=canada,3=mexico,k=korea,j=japan,w=germany)
2nd and 3rd are the manufacturer
4-8 are manufacturer chassis codes typically
9th is year i believe
10-15 are serial #
Thats off the top of my head but i believe it is acurate, typically modern VINs tell you nothing about the particular options etc a car had other than its major body style (coupe, convertible, sedan etc)and engine option (v6, v8 etc)

Answer 4

The absolutely free reverse vin check sites generally provide fake information. To get real information, money will have to be paid. The free searches provide fake information so they can get your email address to send spam.

Stay away from shady reverse vin check sites, most likely you won't get any information after you make the payment. Not to mention you won't get a report and you won't get an answer if you try to call for a refund. Stick with a reputable reverse vin check site like http://www.reversevincheck.net that has been around since 1995.
