- Vehicle information (make, model, year, VIN, color, license plate number & state)
- Registered owner information (name, phone number, address & relationship)
- VEHICLE INSURANCE INFORMATION IS NOT REQUIRED, PLEASE SKIP THIS STEP.
- You will be prompted to create an account. After doing so, you will receive an email to verify your email address. You must verify before continuing the registration process.
- You can add your vehicle by clicking the plus sign in the upper right corner of the "Add Vehicle" tile. Do the same for the Address and Phone Number tiles.
