Has anyone figured out how to decode the last 6 digits of the VIN number?

Thanks,

That's just the vehicle build sequence, see the vehicle decoder here

Why does mine have origination code 2?

So does mine. The first number on my VIN is a 2. What does that mean?

Guys, that is the country of origin, in this case Canada.

Um, my last six digits are 117870. How could it be the 117,870th one built? It was made in March!

The first run starts with 100000; after the shutdown in July it starts with 500000.

What was the reason for the shutdown?

Do you know about using search engines/functions?

It is on the door sticker on the driver's side. You will also see an MDH number at the bottom of the sticker which stands for "Month Day Hour".
