VIN # tracing

So, if you get the VIN # from your dealer, can you then use it to trace its location/status? And if so, how do you find its status, do you have to pay for carfax or whatever to do so?

the dealer can track it, but only on a basic level, Nothing like UPS.

Thanks,
By basic level do you mean whether its made it to the US or not? Do you think I should bug my dealer about it?

there will be a history of the vin#
but nothing real current.

if your dealer has the vin#, then it made it to port and is waiting for delivery...
