As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of 49 CFR Part 567, "Certification."

Consequence

If the stamped vehicle identification number (VIN) does not match the VIN on the Vehicle Certification Label, owners may be unable to tell if their vehicle is under an important safety recall.
