* Driver's side dashboard: Look through the lower corner of the windshield on the driver's side. The VIN is usually stamped onto the dashboard itself, visible from the outside.
* Driver's side doorjamb: Open the driver's side door. The VIN is often stamped on the doorjamb, near the latch mechanism.
* Vehicle title or registration: Your vehicle's title or registration documents will clearly list the VIN.
* Insurance documents: Your insurance paperwork will also show the VIN.
* Under the hood: While less common than the other locations, some vehicles have the VIN stamped on a metal plate under the hood. Check various metal surfaces near the firewall.
If you can't locate it in these places, you might need to consult your Ford dealership or a local DMV. They may be able to access the VIN through your vehicle's registration information.
