When i got the van 6 months ago they made a huge deal about the vin . I had to get a bc vin issued and had a paper in my van that said that the vin was changed etc.....etc....
They sent me new paperwork with the bc vin to carry in my glove box.
I just had to go to aircare and they were giving me a hard time about the fact that i did not have a sticker with the bc vin on my door. I showed them all the paperwork
And they said to get the icbc office to issue me a decal.......
A few days later i went to icbc and they printed me out the new registration and what's on the paperwork........The japanese vin number !!!! The very same one ICBC said the computer would not/could not use !!! I asked about it and the lady had no idea what i was asking her. She just said to carry this mountain of paperwork in the glovebox.
I am now confused !! BUT I GUESS THIS IS WHAT THE GOVERNMENT AIMS FOR !!!
