Where is the NIU frame number located?
2 Answers
The vehicle frame number (VIN) can typically be found in the following locations: under the windshield on the driver's side, on the vehicle registration certificate (new certificates usually print the VIN in the frame number section), on various nameplates in the engine compartment, or on the driver's side door pillar. The frame number generally cannot be altered. Functions of the frame number: 1. Vehicle identification: In specific circumstances, the frame number can accurately identify the vehicle. 2. Traffic violation queries: When checking for traffic violations, the VIN must be entered to proceed with the query. In many cases, the frame number is required for such operations. 3. Vehicle batch recall checks: As automotive brands continuously update and recalls become more frequent, the frame number helps determine whether a vehicle falls within a recall scope. This prevents potential faults during usage that could lead to economic losses while ensuring safe driving. If a vehicle's batch is subject to recall, immediate contact with a 4S store or the manufacturer is advised.
I often help friends locate Vehicle Identification Numbers. For Niu cars, the VIN is usually at the bottom left corner of the windshield, visible at a glance from the driver's seat as a 17-digit barcode. If it's hard to see on foggy days, try opening the driver's door—there's a metal tag on the B-pillar also printed with the VIN. There's also an anti-counterfeiting nameplate in the engine compartment, hidden under the battery or hood. The VIN is like a car's ID card, essential for repairs or used car transactions—don't let dust obscure it to avoid missing it. Having inspected several cars myself, I find these locations well-designed to prevent tampering. Checking it when buying a car can reveal accident history, saving money and providing peace of mind. Remember to clean it during routine maintenance for quick access when needed.
