Example car information sticker

A door jamb on a car typically has a sticker or plate with a variety of information about the vehicle. The information may include the make and model of the car, the vehicle identification number (VIN), the date of manufacture, and the options and features of the car. The location of the door jamb sticker can vary depending on the make and model of the car, but it is usually found on the driver's side door jamb or on the pillar between the front and rear doors.

Here's an example of how to read the information table on a door jamb of a car:

  1. Locate the door jamb sticker or plate on the car. It is usually found on the driver's side door jamb or on the pillar between the front and rear doors.

  2. Look for the VIN (vehicle identification number). This is a 17-digit number that is unique to each vehicle. It is usually located at the top of the door jamb sticker or plate.

  3. Look for the make and model of the car. This will be listed on the door jamb sticker or plate and usually at the top next to the VIN.

  4. Look for the trim level or option package of the car. This will be listed on the door jamb sticker or plate and usually below the make and model.

  5. Look for the date of manufacture. This will be listed on the door jamb sticker or plate and usually at the bottom.

  6. Look for the transmission type and engine size. These will be listed on the door jamb sticker or plate and usually below the date of manufacture.

It's important to note that the information provided on the door jamb sticker can vary depending on the make and model of the car. It's always good to consult the owner's manual or check with the manufacturer for more information.
