Where is the VIN number on a Cruze?
2 Answers
The VIN number of the Cruze is located on the floor of the front passenger seat. After removing the floor mat, you can find it near the lower edge of the body. When registering the vehicle, the VIN needs to be imprinted. For daily reference, such as checking information, you can simply look at the number in the lower left corner of the windshield. The Cruze is a compact model developed by General Motors with the goal of setting benchmarks in design and performance. It integrates global resources and features a body length of 4666mm, width of 1807mm, height of 1460mm, and a wheelbase of 2700mm.
As a long-time owner of a Cruze, I remember the VIN is commonly found in a few spots. Mainly on the lower left corner of the windshield—there's a sticker visible from the outside, near the metal frame of the windshield, clearly legible. If you can't find it there, check the driver's side door pillar; opening the door reveals a label on the side. Alternatively, look on the firewall in the engine compartment—just pop the hood and you'll spot the plate. Finding the VIN is pretty important—it's a 17-digit identity code needed for buying/selling transfers, insurance claims, and even repairs to avoid filling in wrong info. Once, I forgot my documents during an annual inspection and snapped a photo of it roadside to save hassle! I recommend jotting it down or taking a photo to keep in your phone's notes. The exact location might vary slightly across Cruze models, but it's generally in these areas. If it's rusted or faded, give it a careful wipe.
