Проверка VIN номера Freightliner

When it comes to medium and heavy-duty trucks, you have a lot of options. Even within one model line, there are different drive systems, engines, cabs, chassis lengths and GVWR capacities. The easiest way to find the right configuration is by decoding the VIN. This number isn’t just a way to identify a specific vehicle. It also contains information about where and when the truck was built, as well as the parts Freightliner used when they built it. This gives you more information than a seller is likely to include on a sales listing. It also helps you identify errors, making it easier to weed out trucks that don’t have what you’re looking for.

Где найти VIN?

There are several places where you can find this number printed on Freightliner’s trucks, rolling chassis and vans. If you’re looking at an RV based on a Freightliner chassis, be aware that the vehicle has two VIN numbers. One VIN is issued by Freightliner, while the other VIN is issued by the RV outfitter. The same goes for upfitted trucks, although it’s usually easier to pick out which VIN is for the glider or chassis, and which one is for the completed vehicle. Here are the most common places you’ll find the VIN number:

• Look at the dashboard, next to the driver’s seat. You should see a small metal plate next to the windshield.
• On trucks, there is an information plate or sticker above the seat belt, next to the driver’s door. This ID lists the VIN. On vans, you can usually find this plate or sticker on the step next to the driver’s door, or on the driver’s side B pillar.
• If you have an RV, look at the wall next to the driver’s seat. There is usually a large sticker or plate with vehicle information, including the VIN. Some outfitters put this plate or sticker inside one of the closets.
• Open the hood. Look for one or two metal tags riveted to the radiator support. At least one of these should have the VIN.

Freightliner also prints at least part of the VIN on the chassis. Most of the time, this is just the vehicle’s serial number. These digits should match up with the last characters of the VIN. Locations vary from model to model, but it’s usually close to one of the rear leaf spring mounts.

Подробное руководство по расшифровке VIN

What do all those characters in the VIN mean? Here’s a breakdown of this identifying code, along with common characters and their meanings.

The first three characters in the VIN identify the country, manufacturer and division. American made trucks usually have these codes:

3AK and 3AL are codes for Mercedes-Benz Mexico, the manufacturer of Freightliner’s Sprinter vans.

The fourth character is the drive configuration:

Characters 5 and 6 are the truck model, cab type and GVWR. Here are the codes for Freightliner’s most popular models:

Characters 7 and 8 are the engine manufacturer and brake type. With so many possible combinations, it’s impossible to list them all here. It’s much easier to search for the VIN on our site, and use our decoder to find out which engine was installed at the factory.

Character 9 is the check digit. This verifies the rest of the VIN is correct.

Character 10 is the year the truck was built. This can be one of 30 numbers and letters. Numbers 1-9 were last used from 2001 to 2009.

Character 11 is the manufacturing plant. With so many truck models and divisions in their portfolio, there is a long list of plants where their trucks are built.

The remaining characters in the VIN are the truck’s serial number. Serial numbers are reused, so these last 6 digits aren’t enough to identify a specific truck or chassis.
