What is the cut out of the black paint band around the windshield that allows the VIN to be read from outside the vehicle called?
Correct Answer:
VIN Notch
Explanation:
A VIN notch is a small cut in the black paint band (the frit) around the windshield that exposes the glass so the VIN can be read from outside the vehicle. This tiny opening is placed so technicians can verify the vehicle’s VIN without removing the windshield or needing a special view, which helps ensure the correct part is used and that records match accurately. The notch is the precise term used for this feature. A long opening would be a slot, a generic cutout isn’t specific enough, and a window would imply a separate visible pane rather than a small, intentional notch in the frit.
