1 Answers
The VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) of an imported Ford Edge is located on the firewall in the engine compartment, as well as under the front passenger seat. Here is some information about the VIN: 1. For an imported Ford Edge, the first digit of the VIN identifies the country/region of origin, indicating where the vehicle was assembled. For example, a vehicle manufactured in Japan will have 'J' as the first digit. The second digit identifies the manufacturer of the vehicle. The third digit of an imported Ford Edge's VIN identifies the manufacturer's internal division or general vehicle type. The fourth digit represents the body series, or chassis series. The fifth digit indicates the engine type. The sixth and seventh digits denote the model within that body series. The eighth digit is the occupant safety system code. The ninth digit of the Ford Edge's VIN is the manufacturer's check digit, the tenth digit indicates the model year (using 21 letters from A-Z to represent 1980-2000), and the eleventh digit identifies the assembly plant. The twelfth to seventeenth digits represent the chassis production sequence number for the Ford Edge's body series. 2. The VIN provides information about the number of doors and windows, load characteristics, and other details. For example, a sedan typically has two doors and four windows, while an MPV model may have five doors and could be a hatchback, light truck, or heavy truck.
