Could you build this?
Partial A Claude connector, VIN decoding, and NHTSA recall lookups are all buildable from public APIs. Searching real dealer inventory and enabling dealer contact depends on licensed data partnerships like Edmunds, which vibe coding cannot provide.
What it would actually take: The connector and tool integrations are straightforward, and VIN and recall data come from public sources. The blocker is access to current, comprehensive new and used car listings and dealer lead channels, which require commercial data licensing or affiliate agreements. Building the real version also means handling the contract and data-use terms, not just the code.
