SCHAUMBURG, Ill. — Experian Automotive will offer National Motor Vehicle Title Information Systems (NMVTIS) Reports to California auto dealers, enabling them to stay in compliance with a new law that took effect this month.

"As of July 1, 2012, all California dealers are required to provide a NMVTIS report prior to selling a used vehicle," said Scott Waldron, president of Experian Automotive. “Being an authorized NMVTIS seller reinforces our commitment to our dealer customers, enabling them to get an AutoCheck Vehicle History report and a NMVTIS report through their current AutoCheck access point.”

Reports from the NMVTIS provide basic vehicle information in accordance with California state law. Used-car and -truck dealers can access NMVTIS reports through Experian Automotive's AutoCheck Website at www.autocheckmembers.com.

To learn more about the NMVTIS reports from Experian Automotive, visit www.Experian.com/NMVTI .

Curb The Confusion

Talk to F&I customers like you’d talk to a friend, without industry lingo or sales-like questions, and use hard proof to show, not tell, them about a need.
