If the 10th digit of the VIN is 'f', it indicates that the vehicle was produced in 2016. Below is relevant information about VIN codes: 1. A VIN code is equivalent to a person's ID number; this number is unique and cannot be altered. The VIN contains a wealth of information, including body style, engine type, production region, and production year. 2. The production date of the vehicle, accurate to the month, can also be found on the nameplates located in the engine compartment and on the B-pillar. 3. Many parts on a vehicle have detailed production dates, and all parts should have production dates earlier than the vehicle's assembly date; otherwise, they have been replaced later. Many vehicle components are produced by suppliers and then delivered to the automaker for assembly on the production line. If a part's production date is later than the vehicle's assembly date, it indicates that the part was replaced after the vehicle was manufactured.
