VIN Number Locations on Hummer Vehicles

The Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) is a unique code used to identify individual motor vehicles. For Hummer vehicles, the VIN can typically be found in the following locations:

1. Dashboard
On most Hummer vehicles, the VIN is located on the driver's side dashboard, visible through the windshield.

2. Driver's Side Door Jamb
Open the driver's side door and look for a sticker or metal plate on the door frame. This label often contains the VIN along with other vehicle information.

3. Engine Block
The VIN may be stamped on the engine block, typically on the left side rear of the engine. This location can be more challenging to access and may require cleaning to view clearly.

4. Frame or Chassis
​In some models, especially the H1, the VIN is stamped on the frame.
​Common locations include the driver's side frame rail, often near the transmission or rear wheel well. Or on the chassis behind the front wheel
​

Hummer originated from AM General's military vehicle, the M998 High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle (Humvee), developed in the 1980s.

The civilian version, known as the Hummer H1, was introduced in 1992.
In 1999, General Motors (GM) acquired the brand and expanded the lineup with the H2 and H3 models.
​Due to declining sales and changing market demands, GM discontinued the Hummer brand in 2010. However, in 2020, GM revived the Hummer nameplate as an electric vehicle under the GMC brand, introducing the GMC Hummer EV.
