Vehicle With Certification Label

• 1). Open the driver's-side door of your Dodge Ram truck and look for the stickers or labels affixed to the door jamb.
  
  
• 2). Examine the certification label, using a flashlight and magnifying glass if necessary, and find the "Date of MFR" heading.
  
  
• 3). Look below the "Date of MFR" heading and make note of the date that is printed there as it is the date of manufacture for your vehicle.
  
  
• 4). Look for the "MDH" heading on the label and make note of the six-digit code following the heading. This code is the two-digit month, two-digit day and two-digit hour (in 24-hour format) that your vehicle was manufactured.
  
  
• 5). Write the manufacture date and hour down in a convenient location for future reference.
  
  

Vehicle Without Certification Label

• 1). Look into the vehicle through the windshield on the driver's side. Find the metal tag affixed to the dashboard near where the windshield and dashboard meet.
  
  
• 2). Make note of the 17-digit code stamped into the metal tag.
  
  
• 3). Identify the 10th digit in the code and cross-reference it to the "Dodge Ram VIN Decoding" page in the Resources section to identify the year of manufacture.
  
  
• 4). Write the codes down in a convenient location, such as your owner's manual, for future reference.
