A-PLUS - The Automobile-Property Loss Underwriting Service

To calculate suitable premiums for automobile risks, you need complete and accurate information about the vehicles that your policyholders drive. But a policyholder who buys a used car may not know that it was previously junked, salvaged, or flooded. And policyholders may forget to disclose important information, such as lapses in registration or shared ownership of a vehicle.

Now A-PLUSTM offers easy access to Vehicle-Registration Reports through a strategic alliance with a premier provider of vehicle-registration data.

How the system works
You'll access vehicle-registration data instantly using any of these search criteria:

  • vehicle identification number (VIN)
  • license plate number and state
  • surname and address

Search results may vary depending on the search criteria you use and the state where the owner registered the vehicle. However, most users will receive information on:

  • the vehicle's year, make, model, body style, and VIN
  • the name and complete address of the individual who registered the vehicle
  • the name of a cosigner or second owner, if applicable
  • the expiration date of the registration
  • the plate type, such as regular, vanity, dealer, or commercial
  • the name of the leasing company, if applicable
  • whether the vehicle has a "branded" title, indicating an unusual condition in the vehicle's history (junked, salvaged, flooded, or the like)

Contact your A-PLUS representative for details on state coverage.
