Type or scan a VIN on Add vehicle and the app suggests the year, make and model, for example 2020 Acura MDX SH-AWD A-Spec, and where it can, the powertrain. Accept it, change it, or ignore it.
It also works when you add a VIN to a vehicle you already have.
Where the answer comes from. vPIC, the public decoder run by NHTSA, a US government agency. It knows vehicles sold in North America best; for others it may suggest only the make, or nothing at all.
What is sent. The VIN and nothing else. It goes straight from your phone to NHTSA; it does not pass through our servers, and no name, email or record goes with it.
If you are offline, nothing is sent and you can still save the vehicle.
Details are in the Privacy Policy at maintano.app/privacy, under Looking up a vehicle by its VIN.
