Anti-Theft Label
- The Federal law requires that General Motors label certain body parts on
this vehicle with the VIN. The purpose of the law
is to reduce the number of motor vehicle thefts by helping in the tracing
and recovery of parts from stolen vehicles.
Labels are permanently affixed to an interior surface of the part. The label on the replacement part contains the letter R, the manufacturer's logo, and the DOT symbol.
The anti-theft label must be covered before any painting, rustproofing procedures, and uncovered after the procedures.
Failure to follow the precautionary steps may result in liability for violation of the Federal Vehicle Theft Prevention Standard and possible suspicion to the owner that the part was stolen.
