What is a vehicle identification plate?
A vehicle identification plate (or build plate) is fixed to the vehicle at the place of manufacture to include important vehicle information. This includes:
- Vehicle Identification Number (VIN)
- Date of manufacture (shown in month and year)
- Gross Vehicle Mass (GVM)
In some circumstances, other information may be present. If you have any questions about your vehicle or vehicle identification plates, please contact your preferred Ford Dealership.
