[Tonitko]

Hello, where is the VIN number of the chassis? The stickers that are next to the door and on the windshield do not fit. My pickup is a Ford Ranger XLT 2022,USA version, Splash Edition,color : Desert Sand.
Thanks in advance and Best regards

Not fully understanding your issue - Do not fit?
Are you saying the 2 do not match?

I do not think the Ranger has one meaning a actual (Serial Number) on the rail
It would be the last 6-Digits of the VIN#
Ford uses the white sticker (Label) that has a QR Code on it, that can be scanned and the Ford Servers link it to your VIN # as the frame rail has its own production serial number.
The Engine & Transmission have similar QR Code Labels
and of course you will also have the Window Sticker that was on the truck at the time of sale

So you have 4 easy ways to view the VIN #:
The Door and Windshield and by connecting a scan tool that reads the VIN, most newer scan tools will auto read the VIN#.
and of course you will also have the Window Sticker that was on the truck at the time of sale

VIN #s are programmed to various modules within the truck.
PCM - SODL/SODR - FCIM-BCM-RCM-ABS-CCM, The VINs have to match or you will get error codes

You may try a - QR Code reader on your phone or tablet, IDK if it will bring anything up.

The pickup is located in Europe, here they look at it differently, they look for the compact frame, they look at the stickers and compare them with the one on the compact frame, here is an example of the video, after 0.20 seconds -
, there the Ford is an older model

I saw that when trying to find an answer - but for the US Versions, I do not see anything like the one in the video - I do see a code stamped on the inside of the rail but it is not the VIN#, with the research I did - points to the QR Code sticker (when that is scanned) it will show the trucks VIN#.
