What a Subaru Window Sticker Tells You
For a Subaru, the sticker settles the questions a listing often blurs: which trim the car is, which option packages it was built with, and whether it was built for the US market. The packages are where two Outbacks or Foresters of the same year differ most.
In the 2026 range it also tells you whether you are looking at a gasoline, hybrid or electric Subaru: EPA's file has all three, from the WRX at 21–22 MPG to the Solterra at 117–120 MPGe.
Not on any Subaru sticker
- Crash history: the label predates the car's first owner.
- Owner count: it ends at the receiving dealer.
- Title brands: those come from state title records.
- Accessories added later: only options on the car at delivery appear.

Subaru VIN Prefixes (WMI)
A Subaru VIN starts with one of these 6 codes. NHTSA ties each World Manufacturer Identifier to a manufacturer entry and a vehicle type.
| WMI | Manufacturer, as NHTSA lists it | Country | Vehicle type |
|---|---|---|---|
| JF1 | SUBARU CORPORATION | Japan | Passenger car |
| JF2 | SUBARU CORPORATION | Japan | MPV (SUV, crossover) |
| 4S3 | SUBARU OF AMERICA, INC | United States | Passenger car |
| 4S4 | SUBARU OF AMERICA, INC | United States | MPV (SUV, crossover) |
| JF3 | FUJI HEAVY INDUSTRIES U.S.A., INC. (C/O SUBARU OF AMERICA) | Japan | Truck |
| JF4 | FUJI HEAVY INDUSTRIES U.S.A., INC. (C/O SUBARU OF AMERICA) | Japan | Passenger car |
NHTSA vPIC, read 23 October 2026. The country is NHTSA's entry for the manufacturer; the sticker's final assembly point names the plant for a specific car.
What Federal Law Puts on the Sticker
Every new Subaru sold in the US carries a sticker because of 15 U.S.C. § 1232, passed in 1958. The carmaker must list the VIN, the final assembly point, the dealer receiving the car, the suggested retail price, every option's price, transport and the total, plus NHTSA's crash ratings or a statement that the car hasn't been rated. Section 1233 makes removing or altering it before delivery an offense: up to $1,000 and a year in jail for each car. After delivery the rule stops, and most used cars lose theirs.

Open the free sticker makerBuilt in the US or Japan? What the VIN and Sticker Say
NHTSA lists two sets of Subaru prefixes: 4S3 and 4S4 under Subaru of America in the United States, and JF1, JF2, JF3 and JF4 under Subaru Corporation and Fuji Heavy Industries U.S.A. in Japan. The prefix tells you which manufacturer entry the car was built under.
The window sticker goes one step further. Its final assembly point names the plant, so on a used Subaru it confirms where that particular car was built, which the first three VIN characters alone don't always pin down.
Original Subaru Sticker vs a Free Replica

Where These Facts Come From
The label rules come from the US Code, the ratings from EPA, the VIN prefixes from NHTSA, and the sellers' coverage from their own pages.
Read on 23 October 2026. EPA adds versions to a model year as they are rated, and sellers change coverage, so check both before relying on a figure. CarCheckerVIN is not affiliated with Subaru, MonroneyLabels.com or VIN Analytics.
