well on monday i got pulled over by a local cop for not having my third brake light. after viewing my registration and insurance he noticed my registration was expired soo i went to go get it reregistered and they told me that my "account" is on hold because there is a problem. aparently someone in virginia has the same VIN number as mine and theyve done something illegal. soo now i gotta wait until monday for them to figure out whats going on.

 

...thats wierd. I never heard of anything like that before. Did they give you some sort of temporary registration?

 

Lovely. Take them out to your car and show them the vin on your dash.

 

and the doors and in the engine and in the trunk...
damm; thats an odd situation....

 

I think what he's saying is someone else used his VIN for something and got in some trouble. Not that his VIN is reported wrong.

 

when i got my proof of insurance and registration my VIN number was wrong on them. Had to call and get it corrected.

 

well theres a 0 or what looks like a 0 that couldve been mistaken for a O but i dont think thats the case and if someone got a hold of my vin i dont know how they couldve from virginia haha but yeah im going to the dmv tomarow morning to get it straightened out. and no they didnt even give me a temporary registration...been taking my chances without the brake light and registration till i get them in

 

I dont think there is the letter "O" in a VIN for the simple fact that it can be confused with a zero in writing.

 

i figured that but wasnt 100% sure

 

Damn, that dont sound very good
