How to decode a Plymouth Neon VIN

Characters 1-3 of a Plymouth Neon VIN

A World Manufacturer Identifier (WMI) is the initial sequence of three alphanumeric characters in the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) that uniquely identifies the manufacturer of the vehicle. Each automaker has a distinct set of WMIs that reflect their specific brand and sometimes, their geographic location. For the Plymouth Neon, a popular American compact car produced from 1995 through 2001, the WMIs can be 1P3, signifying FCA US LLC (formerly known as Chrysler) as the manufacturer based in Michigan, United States, or 3P3, indicating Chrysler De Mexico Toluca, the manufacturing plant in Mexico. These WMIs help to determine not just the make and country of origin, but also the authenticity of the vehicle’s VIN for regulatory compliance, documentation, and to facilitate accurate vehicle tracking and recall actions.

How to find a Plymouth Neon’s VIN?

Locating the VIN number on your Plymouth Neon is key for identification. Here’s how to find it:

  1. Look at the dashboard on the driver’s side of your Plymouth Neon, typically found at the corner where the dashboard meets the windshield, visible from outside the vehicle.
  2. Open the driver’s side door and examine the door jamb or the door post (where the door latches when it is closed), as the VIN can often be located on a label or sticker in that area.
  3. Take a peek under the hood where the engine compartment is; the VIN might be stamped onto a plate attached to the chassis or firewall.
  4. Review your Plymouth Neon’s vehicle registration documents, insurance card, or title, where the VIN is usually printed clearly.
  5. For additional locations, inspect the trunk area. Sometimes the VIN can be located in the spare tire well or on the trunk lid.
  6. If your Plymouth Neon has one, check the front frame of the car, beneath the vehicle, as the VIN might be stamped on the frame.
