I just went and looked in the usual location for a VIN plate and it isn't there! I thought maybe I was crazy and it's in a different location, but the manual says it's supposed to be on the dash near the base of the windshield in front of the driver like it has been in every car I've ever owned. It's not. Anyone else have this???

Mine is there. Maybe your VIN is etched on all the windows instead?

VINs are not etched on windows as a replacement for the VIN plate - I believe the plate is a federal requirement as is the location for the purposes of confirming registrations against displayed tags, etc.

If you don't have a plate - I would suggest a quick visit to the dealer, sounds VERY suspicious.

I suggest you report the car stolen, get cashed out and have a free G

Yup. No VIN is a major problem.

No etching. It's stamped on the chasis where it should be, it's on the ID plate on top of the passenger strut tower, and it's engraved on the engine where it should be. Just no dash plate. I don't have my digital camera at home, but I'll get an iPhone pic.

Its actually not on the dash. There's a window in the windshield below where the dash is and that is where my VIN is....

Problem solved. I don't know how I missed it. I guess I've just never seen one in that location and only looked on top of the dash.

Stupidity is a dangerous thing...

Only dangerous when not weilded correctly.
