The VIN code can be useful in several cases. For example, when buying a used car, to identify the year of production correctly or to check whether the car is in hijacking. In this regard, you need to know where to find this label. The VIN-code is indicated on the integral components of the chassis and bodywork on special nameplates and labels. The location of the marking can be different and depends on the car manufacturer and the year of its release. Currently, it is most often applied under the floor covering of the driver's seat, on the front left-hand column (at the driver's door), on the dashboard on the driver's side (you can see through the windshield where there is a special window), and under the hood on the cups or the partition , which separates the interior from the engine compartment. In addition, the VIN code can be located on the steering column, under the rear seat, on the thresholds (on the inside of the doors), on the wheel arches, inside the longitudinal members, in the trunk, and next to the radiator. All VIN codes located on the car, as well as the VIN codes specified in the PTA and registration certificate, must completely coincide. If there are differences in at least one character, this can mean that the code has been changed. With such a car it is better not to mess with. When buying a used car, you should write down its VIN code and check it on one of the sites: vin.amobil.ru, vin.su, vin.auto.ru. Using these resources, you can find out the exact date of release of the machine, and sometimes its full history. In addition, you can use special mobile applications that will help you to decipher on the spot and get detailed information.
