Avoid this small mix up that could cost you big. Each vehicle has a VIN (vehicle identification number) code, which identifies the make, model and year of the car. The VIN is unique for each car, so it is also used to track the vehicle’s history. If your insurance company does not have your correct VIN, it can potentially cause major problems, such as having a claim denied due to the discrepancy between the number on your car and the number on your policy. It’s important to check your policy to make sure it lists the correct number. Also, call your agent with this information when you purchase a car or change insurance. You’ll find the VIN where the dashboard meets the windshield on the driver’s side of the car.
