## What is wrong

CMVSS 115 requires that certain information be uniquely identified in the vehicle identification number \(VIN\).  One such item is the engine type.  This particular vehicle configuration has two available engines, 1.6L and 2.0L.  Both vehicle configurations have been labelled with the same VIN prefix that being "2S3TA52C".  This was the correct VIN prefix for the 2.0L model.  All 1.6L models should have been encoded with the VIN prefix "2S3TA03C".  Correction:  As this does not present a safety risk and there are no possibilities that a VIN could have been applied in duplicate, no corrective measures will be taken.
