The VIN identifier is a unique code assigned to each vehicle that contains numerous and important information about the car. VIN includes information such as: country of production, model year, type of drive, engine version, equipment options. The VIN of each car has 17 characters – letters and numbers.

 Where is the VIN in standard vehicle locations?

The VIN number is an individual vehicle identification number that is a series of 17 characters. This code is stamped into vehicles by their manufacturers, and can usually be found in the engine compartment or on the driver’s side windshield. However, it really all depends on the make and model of vehicle you own. So if we don’t know where the VIN is in the car we can check a few more standard places ie.

  • The front of the engine block under the hood.
  • The front end of the frame (old cars).
  • The dashboard on the driver’s side.
  • The door frame on the driver’s side (inside).
    As we mentioned earlier it is usually easiest to locate the VIN number in the lower right corner of the dashboard. We should then be able to read it by looking at the windshield from the driver’s side.
    The VIN number may also be located in the door frame on the driver’s side or on the door pillar . Therefore, to determine where the VIN is in this location, open the door on the driver’s side and look around the edges, because there is usually a small sticker there. Some vehicle manufacturers also place the VIN on the opposite side of the door on the driver’s side, near where the seat belt is located.
    Slightly more difficult to access places where the VIN number is also placed are the wheels. However, if we can’t locate it anywhere it’s worth taking a look there. To do this, go to the rear of the car and take a good look at the wheels on both sides. In such a search, the use of a flashlight may prove necessary.
    If the car in the back of the trunk is a spare wheel, and the VIN number we could not find anywhere else, it may be located there.
