So I got this app on my Android and was playing with it today. Found it some previously unknown good news. Plugs were changed about 13k ago at a Ford dealership so hopefully they are Motorcraft plugs. Found out a lot of history and it didn't cost me a penny.

Thanks for th heads up about the app. Even though I've owned my truck since new, it was cool to see all the history on it. So many things I'd forgotten about.

Totally forgot my ford dealer replaced both leaf springs at 6k miles. That was about 109,000 miles ago.

I haven't owned mine since new lol. So it was good to see more of the history. When I bought it the dealer only showed me the basic report no details. I figured at 130k and not having problems the plugs had been replaced but didn't know. Good to know now.

I've been using this app for a while to track the maintenance on the truck and on my girl's Corolla. Very handy. The best part is, it tracks the current value of the vehicle as you update it's records. Also, all these records are stored in carfax. Great for trade ins and sales

I'm not exactly sure how you get free reports. I can't.

I just downloaded the app. Created an account. Entered me Vin then in the garage select that vehicle and the maintenance report is the second tab on the top.

I don't get that option. Perhaps it has to do with a dealer running one on the truck. It's $39.99 a pop, or unlimited for 60 days for $60.

I donwloaded the app, and created an account, and it tells me "Zero reports remaining" and has a tab to buy more.

I see now, it is the company having two different apps. Because having one that does two things would be silly.

I'm not running a Carfax report. It's just reported service records.

You cant run a Carfax vehicle history report, just see the maintenance history on the vehicle. If you want a full Carfax report, either see a dealer, or purchase one.

Yep, I was confused, as Carfax has a couple of apps. There is stuff missing from mine. Stuff done at the dealership. Oh well.
