Door jamb says only 3/2005. On the window sticker, at the bottom right, there is a series of numbers ending with 03 16 05. Is that the build date or is there someplace else i can find it?

TIA :worship:

 

My build week was 10/4/04 and the date at the bottom of my window sticker is 9/28/04. It seems like the sticker date is a week earlier.

 

I received an extra piece of paper with my car, it was some sort of factory release paperwork. The dealer didn't know what it was and asked me if I wanted it, I said sure. After looking it over, it looks as though this piece of paper is the final "OK, the car is done and officially built" paperwork that is performed as the car is rolling off the assembly line.

If that is the case, my car was "born" March 16th at 3:28AM. Not sure if they are running around the clock though, so I may be assuming something that just isn't possible.

If anyone can confirm that they are running all night long at Flat Rock, and if anyone is interested, I'd be happy to scan that piece of paper and post it to see if anyone else has one.

Regardless, I don't think you can have a car with a build "day" as they take something like 60 hours to build from start to finish. Might be wrong on that one too, but I seem to remember hearing that.

People on here say the dealer pulls a report when your car is in for service (Oasis Report), which shows your actual build date.

John,

I pulled your oasis report for you (I still had your VIN in my PM). Here's a screen shot of it. Says your build date is 3/22/05.
