This VIN has been inspected 5 times across 3 distinct carriers since first being inspected on Apr 9, 2024. Most recent inspection: Aug 17, 2026 by GEO 2024 LLC. 13 total violations cited; 1 out-of-service event.

Operator changes (inspection records)

When consecutive FMCSA inspections list different operating USDOT numbers for this VIN. Common after fleet transfers; can also reflect data-entry errors on rare tickets.

How to read this: FMCSA inspection records show which carrier operated the vehicle on a given date, not the legal owner. A single change may reflect a sale, sublease, or fleet reassignment.

We say "Sale/auction not necessarily implied" — we see a change in operator USDOT in inspection records, which may indicate a sale, lease, or operational reassignment.
