VIN

VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) is a unique 17-digit code assigned to every vehicle produced in the United States after 1981. It is used to identify and track the vehicle for registration, safety recalls, and theft prevention. The VIN can be found on the vehicle itself, usually on the driver’s side dashboard or door jamb, as well as on the vehicle title, registration, and insurance documents.
