SCHAUMBURG, Ill. — Experian Automotive announced that BMW of North America will offer its vehicle history reports as part of its BMW Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) and MINI NEXT programs.

BMW and MINI dealers certifying vehicles with an AutoCheck report can also offer customers Experian Automotive’s buyback protection, which safeguards against major hidden title brands on AutoCheck Assured vehicles.

“Providing our BMW and MINI dealers with the option to choose an AutoCheck vehicle history report is an important step forward as we continue to find ways to enhance our CPO programs,” said Stephen Saward, department head of pre-owned sales for BMW of North America. “It gives our dealers a choice when supplying a quality report to customers and gives our customers added peace of mind when purchasing a vehicle.”

AutoCheck vehicle history reports provide automotive dealers with data used to determine whether previously owned vehicles qualify to meet BMW CPO and MINI NEXT program standards.

“Transparency and confidence between automotive dealers and customers is essential to the used-car buying process,” said Scott Waldron, president of Experian Automotive. “The in-depth information included in an AutoCheck report provides another level of assurance for customers, enabling them to better understand, compare and select the right vehicle.”
