Getting Started

How It Works

Red Nose Garage makes it simple to track every vehicle you own — from the first oil change to the last registration sticker.

STEP 01

Create your free account

Sign in with Google in seconds — no forms, no passwords. Your account is created automatically the first time you sign in.

STEP 02

Add your vehicle

Enter your 17-character VIN and we'll auto-fill your make, model, year, trim, engine, and more using the NHTSA database. Or add your vehicle manually if you prefer.

STEP 03

Log your service history

Record oil changes, tire rotations, brake jobs, inspections, registration renewals — anything you've had done. Attach photos, costs, and mileage to each record.

STEP 04

Get AI-powered maintenance advice

Our built-in AI advisor analyzes your vehicle's history and current mileage to surface overdue services and flag what's coming up next — tailored to your exact car.

STEP 05

Share with your household

Invite family to your garage and set each person's role. Viewers get read-only access to shared vehicles for free; editors who can add and edit records are part of Pro — so everyone manages the family's cars under one roof.

STEP 06

Never miss a renewal

Red Nose Garage tracks your inspection and registration expiration dates — plus open safety recalls from the NHTSA database — and surfaces warnings right on your garage dashboard so you're never caught off guard.
