About Chrysler

Chrysler is an American automaker with a focused lineup centered on the Pacifica minivan and the 300 sedan. The Pacifica is one of the best-selling minivans in the US and is commonly found in rental and shuttle fleets. Because of the high volume of fleet use and specific recall concerns on the Pacifica Hybrid, a VIN check is strongly recommended before buying any used Chrysler.

How to Decode a Chrysler VIN Number

Every Chrysler vehicle has a unique 17-character VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) that reveals important details about the car, including:

  • Country of manufacture
  • Model year
  • Engine type
  • Trim level
  • Assembly plant
  • Body style
Example Chrysler VIN2C4RC1EG3MA001234
1–3World Manufacturer Identifier (2C4 = Chrysler minivan, Canada)
4–8Vehicle attributes (engine, body, trim)
9Check digit
10Model year code (decoded with other attributes to confirm the exact year)
11Assembly plant
12–17Sequential serial number

For Chrysler vehicles:

  • VINs starting with 2C3 indicate Chrysler vehicles manufactured in Canada (Brampton, Ontario)
  • VINs starting with 2C4 indicate Chrysler minivans built in Windsor, Ontario
  • The Chrysler 300 shares its platform with the Dodge Charger and is built at the same plant

Decoding the VIN helps verify the vehicle matches the seller's description. A VIN report also helps confirm the vehicle's trim, drivetrain, and engine match the listing.

Why You Should Run a Chrysler VIN Check

Pacifica Hybrid Battery Recalls

The Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid has had significant battery-related safety recalls.
