What a CarPro reset does and when you need one

A CarPro reset clears your account settings and transaction history, returning your profile to a blank state. You might need a reset if you've forgotten your password, suspect unauthorized access, want to remove linked payment methods, or are preparing to sell or transfer the vehicle associated with your account. The reset process varies depending on whether you're locked out of your account or can still log in.

CarPro is a vehicle management platform used by some dealerships, fleet operators, and individual car owners to track maintenance, payments, and service records. A reset is not the same as deleting your account — it restores your login credentials and clears stored data, but the account itself remains active and tied to your email address.

Key Takeaways

  • A CarPro reset clears your password and linked payment information, but your account email address stays the same.
  • If you can log in, you can reset your password directly from your account settings without contacting support.
  • If you're locked out, you'll need to use the password recovery link sent to your registered email address.
  • Resetting your account does not delete your vehicle records or transaction history — those remain in the system under your email.
  • If you no longer have access to your registered email address, you'll need to contact CarPro support with proof of identity.

Reset your password if you can still log in

If you remember your current password and can access your account, the fastest way to reset is through your account settings. Log in to CarPro with your email and current password, then look for a "Settings," "Account," or "Security" section — the exact label depends on which version of the platform your dealership or service provider uses.

Once in settings, find the "Change Password" or "Reset Password" option. You'll be asked to enter your current password once more, then create a new one. CarPro typically requires passwords to be at least 8 characters and include a mix of uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols. After you save the new password, you'll be logged out automatically and will need to log back in with your new credentials.

Recover your account if you're locked out

If you've forgotten your password or can't log in, go to the CarPro login page and look for a "Forgot Password" or "Can't Log In" link, usually displayed below the password field. Click it and enter the email address associated with your account.

CarPro will send a password reset link to that email address. Check your inbox and your spam folder — the email may take a few minutes to arrive. The reset link is usually valid for 24 hours. Click the link, and you'll be taken to a page where you can create a new password. Once you've set your new password, return to the login page and sign in with your email and new credentials.

If you don't receive the reset email after 10 minutes, try requesting another one. If you still don't receive it, check that you're using the correct email address — the one you originally registered with CarPro. If you're unsure of the email address or don't have access to it anymore, you'll need to contact CarPro support.

What happens to your data when you reset

A password reset does not erase your vehicle records, maintenance history, or payment information. Those records remain stored in the CarPro system and are tied to your account email address. When you log back in with your new password, you'll see the same vehicles, service records, and transaction history you had before.

If you want to remove linked payment methods (such as a credit card or bank account), you can do that separately in your account settings after you've reset your password. Look for a "Payment Methods," "Billing," or "Linked Accounts" section. You can delete old payment methods without affecting your account or vehicle records.

Reset your account if you've changed email addresses

If you no longer have access to the email address you used to register your CarPro account, you cannot use the standard password recovery process. Instead, you'll need to contact CarPro support directly. Have ready a photo ID or other proof of identity that matches the name on your account.

When you reach support, explain that you've lost access to your registered email address and want to update it. They may ask you to verify your identity by answering security questions you set up during registration, or by providing information about your vehicle or recent transactions. Once verified, they can help you change your registered email address to one you currently control, and then you can reset your password normally.

Resetting before you sell or transfer your vehicle

If you're selling your car or transferring it to another owner, you should reset your CarPro account to remove your payment methods and clear any personal information before handing over access. Log in, go to your payment methods or billing section, and delete any linked credit cards or bank accounts. Then change your password to something you don't plan to share.

If you want the new owner to have access to the vehicle's maintenance and service records, you can transfer ownership of the vehicle record within CarPro without transferring your entire account. The exact process depends on your dealership or service provider — some allow you to invite another user to view or manage a specific vehicle, while others require you to contact support to reassign the vehicle record. Check with your dealership or the platform administrator to understand your options before you hand over the keys.

When to contact CarPro support

Contact CarPro support if you cannot reset your password using the standard recovery process, if you've lost access to your registered email address, if you believe your account has been compromised, or if you need help transferring your vehicle record to another owner. Most dealerships and service providers have their own CarPro support contact — check your account page, your service agreement, or your dealership's website for the phone number or email address.

If you're using CarPro through a dealership, you may also be able to reach support through the dealership's customer service line. Have your account email address and vehicle information ready when you call or write.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will resetting my password delete my vehicle records?

No. Your vehicle records, maintenance history, and service notes remain in the CarPro system after a password reset. They are tied to your account email address, not your password, so they will be there when you log back in.

How long does a password reset link stay valid?

Password reset links sent by CarPro are typically valid for 24 hours. If your link has expired, go back to the login page and request a new one. The new link will be sent to your registered email address.

Can I reset my account if I don't remember my email address?

If you don't remember the email address you used to register, contact CarPro support with your vehicle information and a photo ID. They can verify your identity and help you recover or update your account email address.

What if I think someone else has access to my CarPro account?

Reset your password when ready using the password recovery process. If you can't access your email or suspect the account has been compromised in other ways, contact CarPro support right away and explain the situation. They may be able to review recent login activity or help you find your account further.

Do I need to reset my account if I'm just changing my password?

No. Changing your password is different from a full account reset. You can change your password anytime from your account settings without resetting anything else. A full reset is only necessary if you're locked out or want to clear all linked payment methods and start fresh.
