Use credit check apps (like Check Doctor or Ant Queen) to pull the complete accident record.

This is after-sales support we are very happy to provide. Since overseas alignment machines often lack databases for Chinese brand vehicles, we will send you screenshots of the core chassis parameters from the service manual, making it easier for your technician to manually input the data for precise adjustments.

Ask the exporter for a copy of the vehicle registration certificate (机动车登记证书). It lists every owner change and any mortgage registration. If the car was financed, there will be a lien entry; make sure a release entry follows it. You can also verify the VIN against public records through the traffic management platform (12123) — a legitimate exporter can generate a status report on the spot. Check that the seller's company name on the invoice matches the registered owner. For extra safety, require a written statement that the vehicle is free of liens, loans, court seizures, and lease agreements, and wire payment only to the company's corporate account after ownership is transferred to the export entity. That sequence — transfer first, payment second — is your strongest protection.
