Pontiac started as a sub-brand of GM's Oakland before becoming its own brand in 1931. Before WWII, the brand emphasized affordable performance, selling the cheapest straight 8-powered cars on the market. However, it was the GTO that cemented Pontiac's reputation as a sports car brand. Released as a package for the LeMans, it let Pontiac offer GM's engine size limits across their brands. Sales outstripped all expectations, kickstarting the muscle car era. Soon, the GTO was joined by the Firebird and The Judge. By the 1980s, Pontiacs were almost identical to GM's other vehicles, aside from some bright spots like the Trans Am, Fiero and Solstice. Attempts to revive the brand in the 2000s with the Holden-built GTO and G8 floundered, leading to its closure in 2010.
Are you looking for a VIN decoder Pontiac enthusiasts can trust? EpicVIN's online tools make it easy to run a DMV VIN check, giving you details about cars for sale, while helping you verify seller information. We also offer history accidents and vehicle owner lookup reports that can help you avoid buying problem vehicles.
The Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) is a unique code issued to every vehicle by the manufacturer. While these have been in use for decades, they were standardized in American market vehicles in 1981. This number doesn't just identify a specific vehicle. Most of the characters in this 17 digit code include information on how and where the vehicle was built. Our Pontiac VIN number lookup tells you what each of these characters mean, helping you verify information from the seller.
While our free Pontiac VIN check will tell you factory information, you can learn a lot more by ordering a VIN report. We're an official NMVTIS source, which gives us access to government and commercial vehicle databases. This lets us run a vehicle owner lookup, as well as search for accident reports, title registrations, theft reports, liens and other information tied to the vehicle. We collect this information in an easy-to-read report that can tip you off about potential problems including legal issues and accident damage.
Certain trims, like the Fiero Formula and the Trans Am WS6, represent the best these models have to offer. This makes them desirable and valuable. While it's easy to fake these models with bolt-on parts, it's all but impossible to change the VIN. Using our VIN check tools helps you verify factory information, so you know you're getting the vehicle you're paying for.
Our tools don't just work for car VINs. Want to run a motorcycle VIN check? Shopping around and need a heavy truck, RV or ATV VIN decoder? Our search tools work with all of these vehicles.
Where do you find this number, so you can run a Pontiac VIN lookup? Since the VIN is unique to the vehicle, you can find it on a wide range of official documents. This includes the title, registration and insurance policy. It's also added to several locations on the vehicle. Here are the most common places you'll find the VIN on a Pontiac:
Don't have the VIN handy? We also offer license plate lookup, which finds and decodes the VIN for the vehicle currently registered to the plate.
What can you learn about a Pontiac when you look up the VIN on our website? Here's a breakdown of each character in this code, and what it tells you about the vehicle.
Characters 1, 2 and 3: World Make Identifier

All North American VINs use a formula to generate this character. This helps catch errors during data entry.

Want to try out our Pontiac VIN search tools? Here are some example VIN numbers:
Las ubicaciones cambian de un fabricante a otro, pero hay tres zonas en las que se puede encontrar el código en la mayoría de los vehículos:
- Mira en el salpicadero a través del parabrisas. En el lado del conductor, deberías ver una pequeña placa metálica con el número estampado en ella.
- Abre la puerta del conductor. Busca una pegatina de identificación en la parte frontal y en el lateral del marco de la puerta. Suele incluir el logo del fabricante. El código debería aparecer en esa pegatina.
- Abre el capó. Puede que veas una pegatina en el cortafuegos o al lado de la barra antitorsión del lado del pasajero. Algunos autos tienen el número grabado en una de estas partes.
Puesto que este número se usa para identificar al vehículo en documentos oficiales, también lo puedes encontrar en el título, la pegatina de la ventana y las pólizas de seguros.
También decodificamos números de vehículos recreativos, camiones pesados y motos. Si necesitas decodificar el número de un vehículo recreativo, asegúrate de que sea el emitido por el fabricante del chasis, no el del proveedor de servicios de equipamiento adicional.
No. Los vehículos canadienses y mexicanos suelen tener el mismo formato. Otros países utilizan sus propios formatos.
Es el fabricante quien determina lo que se incluye en algunas partes del número. Por ejemplo, algunas empresas no incluyen información sobre la transmisión o los niveles de equipamiento.
Normalmente, no. Hay pocos fabricantes que estampan el código dentro del motor. En esos casos, si el VIN del motor y el del auto coinciden, se trata del motor original. En cambio, en la mayoría de los vehículos no hay nada que vincule un motor a un vehículo específico. Como mucho, buscar el vehículo en nuestra web te dirá si se ha instalado otro tipo de motor. Por ejemplo, si alguien pone un V8 en un Ford Mustang, nuestra página te dirá que originalmente traía un V6.
