If AutoCheck or a similar vehicle history reporting company finds this message, does this mean I shouldn't buy this car? What does this mean...and could it just be the loan where the previous owner bought it?

Whenever you finance a vehicle, a lien is filed against the title. The vehicle is security for the loan.
If there is a lien, it will have to be paid off before title is transferred, but this is not something that should keep you from buying the vehicle. The seller needs to provide you with a clear title (or a lien release)

RE:
Autocheck reported "Motor Vehicle Dept. TITLE (Lien Reported)" 1 year ago. Should I not buy this used car?

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.

IF it seems,to good to be true & the owner is being a tad unresponsive,just walk away from it!!The last thing you want is "REPO"men or worse gang members who want their car back!! Take a look @ some used rentals,if you want a good reliable & basically cheaper auto,miles usually not to high,usually well maintained,pretty much trouble free,for long time!!Hope i was of help!!

Frederick M., If you want this car bad enough and he wants the money bad enough, see if he's willing to nagotiate with you on certain things. Such as your needing to have the license number as well as the long "Vintage Number". That you just want to be very careful there's no reason's for why this deal is so good. If he doesn't want to give you these numbers to have the DMV run a check on them as well as the police dept., then there most likely is some sort of "Fowl Play" going on, and I would just come right out and tell him "If I'm going to be owning this car, through payments (or whatever it is your paying source will be) then I also need to cover myself here. I cannot afford to pay your old debts on this car, nor any old traffic tickets, or if you've lost the "Title" on it or something along those lines, I would in turn have to go to the DMV and request a "Lost Title Form", and pay much more money than the original deal on this. If there's anything you want from me regarding the car I'd be willing to work with you also. So, see where I'm coming from. I only have so much money to contend with here, but you need to work with me, or this wont be a "Straight across sale" to me whatsoever! I'll have many of worries regarding this car if your not either straight up with me on it or if you can at least give me all the information on the car so I can do all the homework for myself on it. The DMV wont charge you for trying to find out about these things, that I know of. Nor the Police Dept., either. Not to sure about the P.D. But, just ask him to be straight up with you. Or at least give you the information on the car for you so you can find out everything on it you need to know for yourself. Just tell him, your not looking for a car that has a bad past history. And if this is why your getting such a good deal on it, you may have to pass on this all together. He may also be selling it cheap because there could be some sort of car-surprises later on you'll find out about. That he just doesn't want you to know as of yet. At least not until the whole deal is done and you find out for yourself, once all papers are signed and notarized. And so forth. Oh, I would type of some sort of paper stating that if the car isn't everything he says that you indeed want your money back in full. Within a week to date. If he wont work with you and have him meet you at your bank, to meet with your free "Notary Public" he may not even read the note. And this way while you two are signing car papers you just slip that one in there in between, and this way you have some clout on this deal so you can walk away at least feeling a bit safer knowing you can legally take it back, and get your money back soons you find out about anything that could be very costly as soon as you get behind the wheel. Good Luck to you. I hope it is all ligitimate for your sake. SMILE!!!

it means there is still some money owed on the vehicle. if you want to pay that money off you will probably get the car but i dont suggest that .Usually a lien is some kind of loan against the vehicle that aint been paid off yet , or the dealer is still owed money
