What to Do If the Vehicle Frame Number Becomes Illegible?
1 Answers
If the vehicle frame number becomes illegible, you need to go to the vehicle management office to apply for record filing and request a new rubbing. According to relevant regulations, if the engine number or vehicle identification number becomes unclear or damaged due to wear, corrosion, accidents, or other reasons, you must go to the vehicle management office to apply for record filing. The vehicle frame number is the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN), a unique set of seventeen letters or numbers used to identify the manufacturer, engine, chassis number, and other specifications of the vehicle. There are mainly two formats for VINs: the first is the ISO 3779 standard adopted by the European Union, and the second is primarily used in North America, which is more stringent than the first but remains compatible with it.
