Does anyyone know if dealerships would know the service history of your car if you called them up and give them your VIN number? By this, I mean if you used different dealers during the course of having your car serviced. This is for an EVO of course!

I think so. Just call and ask. The worst they can tell you is "No, sorry."

Yes, a Mitsu dealership should be able to track the history of your car's service at other Mitsu dealerships.

My dealership is awesome. When i bought my evo from them, they gave me the full servicing history. I was even able to talk to the guy who owned it before me. The dealership called him and asked him if it was ok for me to contact him.

I work at a Toyota Dealer.....You will only be able to see the history at that particular dealer. Stuff like Warranty claims and such will show up anywhere.
