Volkswagen is one of the most recognizable nameplates on U.S. roads. Founded in 1937 and headquartered in Germany, today Volkswagen is part of Volkswagen Group. Every modern Volkswagen carries a unique 17-character Vehicle Identification Number that encodes the model year, engine, body style, and country of assembly — and try.vin uses that VIN to assemble a complete vehicle history report covering title brands, accidents, odometer readings, open safety recalls, and theft flags. Popular used Volkswagen models on the market today include Jetta, Passat, Tiguan, Atlas, Taos, and ID.4.
