What is the VIN code?

Before you punch a car by the VIN code, you should know where you can find it, and what it means. The VIN-code is indicated on the body of the vehicle, as well as in the documents for the car. The assignment of these figures is carried out by the manufacturer of the vehicle.

Such marking is necessary to ensure the identification of the car, so it’s worth considering that the set of numbers and Latin letters is unique and cannot be duplicated on another transport. Detect factory marking will be in the following places:

• on the front driver's door or when it is opened on the central rack;
• in the engine compartment, closer to the windshield;

The need to control information

The vehicle is checked by the VIN number, as a rule, by potential buyers before it is purchased. This is due to the fact that in the process of re-registration of movable property will be inspected by the traffic police officer. The inspector will also monitor the car on an exclusive numbering from the manufacturer.

In parallel, the physical condition of the information on the plate is tested. It should not contain signs of outside interference. Breaking such numbers or welding the dashboard from one vehicle to another is a punishable offense. The entered data in the frame should fully coincide with the specified parameters in the documents, otherwise the authorized inspector has the right to suspect that the vehicle in the hijacking or other illegal actions are associated with it.

You need to know that you should not choose a car in which checking a car by VIN-code causes as a result of doubts about the legality of the vehicle or the honesty of the seller.

However, you should not believe the word, because after a while the paint may burn out or differ in color in certain areas. You can avoid this situation through monitoring by online services.
• Security issues. The car is listed in the collateral property of banks, if the owner has a current debt on the payment of loan obligations on the vehicle. By purchasing such a problematic vehicle, you can lose it. Financial organizations have the right to withdraw the car to repay the debt to the bank.
• Prohibition of registration actions. Such a restriction is relevant in cases where the owner has some debts, for example, confirmed by bailiffs. After purchasing the vehicle, the new owners will not be able to register a car in the traffic police.
• Auto after a taxi. A rolling out car after a private truck or taxi service is sold under the guise of a poorly exploited vehicle. Sometimes they twist the mileage to hide a significant development of the motor and main systems. Notice the intensive operation will wear out the cabin, which often passes about a dozen passengers.
