Where is the VIN stamp located on a Jeep Wrangler?

Jeep Wrangler's VIN stamp is located under the front passenger seat. Push the passenger seat backward and lift the floor sound insulation mat to see it. Composition of VIN: The Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) is a unique code consisting of 17 alphanumeric characters. Positions 1-3 indicate the manufacturer, region, and vehicle type; positions 4-8 describe vehicle features; positions 9-11 represent check digit, model year, and assembly plant; positions 12-17 show the production sequence number. Functions of VIN: The VIN is a unique identifier for vehicles. It helps identify the manufacturer, engine, chassis number, and other specifications; facilitates accurate vehicle identification, especially in special circumstances; enables traffic violation queries by entering the VIN; allows checking of production batches to determine if a vehicle falls within recall ranges.
I've driven a Jeep Wrangler for over a decade and know the VIN location well. It's usually in the most visible spot: the lower left corner of the windshield, clearly visible from outside. If you're buying a used car or need an inspection, you might also check under the hood—after opening it, look for a small label on the front frame of the engine or the firewall. The inside edge of the driver's side door frame is another good spot—check the sticker along the edge when you open the door. The VIN is a 17-character code that reveals the vehicle's production year, manufacturer, and history. Last time I sold my car, I used it to pull up a history report and confirm it was accident-free. Remember to check in good lighting—a flashlight helps. Wranglers get dirty off-road, so regularly cleaning the VIN area to prevent dust buildup is smart.
