Summary

Dodge Journey 2012 VIN check

This page is a short report on the Dodge Journey 2012: VIN 3C4PDCAB4CT187898, model year 2012, mileage 328k km, газ пропан-бутан / petrol engine, automatic gearbox and an asking price of $7,500. Such a check helps to quickly understand how well a specific car matches the market, whether the price looks suspiciously low and whether the mileage is typical for this year.

Insight: The car is over 10 years old — pay attention to the condition of key units and rust. High mileage — check the service history and the condition of the engine and gearbox. LPG is indicated — verify the legality of the installation and the registered conversion.

Market position

Based on current data, 38 similar offers were found for the Dodge Journey 2012 (same model and year). Market prices range from $4,000 to $11,100 with a median of $9,600, and this offer is about 12% below the market estimate (this car's estimate ≈ $8,566). This is not always a problem, but such a difference deserves extra attention to the car's condition, documents, registration history and possible bargaining.

Insight: The price is below the market estimate — worth checking what explains the gap (condition, trim, history). Wide price spread — the final value depends heavily on trim, condition and mileage.

History & registrations

The report includes state registry data: owners — 2, transfers — 1, plate changes — 0, years in the registry — 6. The latest recorded operation: Sold to a new owner on 2025-03-06. This data helps to assess the legal transparency of the car before buying.

Insight: A moderate number of owners (2) — typical for the car’s age. There were transfers but the plate stayed the same — the history was not broken up by plate changes.
