A unit that bounces between many operators can indicate slip-seating, heavy sub-haul, or double-brokering. Review the carrier timeline below for load integrity — context for human judgment, not a verdict.

Decode evidence & sources

Deterministic structure

These fields come directly from VIN positions and the published checksum calculation, with zero store IO.

World manufacturer identifier
3AK

Deterministic · VIN positions 1–3.

Vehicle descriptor section
JGLDR

Deterministic · VIN positions 4–8.

Check digit
6 · valid

Deterministic · position 9; calculated value 6.

Model year candidates
1987 or 2017

Position 10 repeats every 30 years; both candidates are retained and neither is silently selected.

North American serial sequence
HM5842

Deterministic · positions 12–17 for a North American WMI.

Sourced platform inference

The prefix store publishes only at support ≥ 3 and purity ≥ 90%. Prefix confidence is shown beside every established platform claim.

Temporarily unavailable

The platform resolver did not return a reliable response

Deterministic validation above is complete. Platform fields are withheld because an outage is not evidence that the VIN has no known platform.

Federal observation (NHTSA vPIC)

What the federal corpus observed directly for this exact VIN — independent of, and sometimes more specific than, the prefix-level inference above.

VIN-level rule claims

Rules published for individual VIN positions beyond the prefix — applied with the WMI, prefix, and model-year guards each rule was validated under. Year-scoped rules were checked against model year 2017, established by the federal observation agreeing with a position-10 candidate.

Temporarily unavailable

The VIN-level rule resolver did not return a reliable response

Deterministic validation and the prefix-level results above are unaffected. An outage here is not evidence that no VIN-level rule applies.

Not established

  • platform resolution (temporarily unavailable)

These are withheld claims, not negative findings.
