What is Vehicle VIN number


Vehicle VIN Says  I Have the Wrong Car


HOW EXACTLY VEHICLE VIN NUMBER DECIDES WHICH CAR I OWN?



Q: On a uni-body car where will I find the VIN? When I took my car in for service, I was going to trade it in then I decided to keep it when I picked up the car I found it to be different, as in year, style, etc. If you can help or have any information, please let me know.


A: This is really confusing. Did you drive this vehicle away from the shop? Or are you without a vehicle? The first place you should check for a vehicle identification number (VIN) is right at the driver’s side lower corner of the windshield on a plate with 17 digits. There will be a sticker on the driver’s side door post and depending on the year and make it can be found in a variety of other places. Once you sort this out, I’d really like to hear the rest of the story and I’m sure the readers would too.

CRV hood release cable is broken, How do you reconnect the top of the hood release cable when the hood wont open You can see the cable if you pull on the hood as far as it will go 2002 CRV hood release cable is broken, or disconnected at the latch end How can I open the hood If it's loose it either broke at the cable or the end piece. You have to get to the back of the latch and move the release arm. I usually try and get under the vehicle and remove the plastic splash shield from the bottom and get a long screwdriver or something I can fish up from the bottom to that arm to "pop" it open. Here's a couple pictures showing the release arm and latch so you can see where they are located. The release arm (marked B) will release the primary latch. Then you can release the second safety latch like normal. That arm needs to come down . I have this extra long radiator hose pick that's angled just right to grab it and then I pull down to pop it.  in t...
