About Lincoln VIN Numbers
Lincoln is Ford's luxury vehicle division, founded in 1917 in USA. Every Lincolnvehicle manufactured since 1981 has a unique 17-character Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) that contains detailed information about the vehicle's specifications, manufacturing details, and history.
Lincoln VINs typically begin with the characters “5LM”, which identify the manufacturer and country of origin. By decoding a Lincoln VIN through our free tool, you can instantly access complete vehicle specifications, factory-installed equipment, recall information, market valuations, and real photos.
Whether you're buying a used Lincoln Navigator, selling your Lincoln Corsair, or verifying the specs on a Lincoln Aviator, our VIN decoder provides all the information you need to make an informed decision.
What to Check on a Used Lincoln
Lincoln-specific VIN details, known model issues, and recall history every buyer should verify.
Decoding a Lincoln VIN
Lincoln WMIs begin with "5LM" (SUVs) or "1LN" (sedans). The VIN decodes the EcoBoost engine and whether the vehicle has all-wheel drive — relevant on the twin-turbo Navigator and Aviator.
Common Lincoln Issues to Verify
Lincoln shares Ford EcoBoost mechanicals, so some turbo engines had coolant-intrusion concerns, and the Aviator's plug-in hybrid added electrical complexity. A history report flags powertrain repairs.
Lincoln Recall History
Lincoln vehicles shared Ford's Takata airbag and Explorer-platform campaigns (the Aviator shares the Explorer architecture). Confirm recall status by VIN.
Buying a Used Lincoln
Navigators are popular livery vehicles — use the history report to rule out prior commercial use and high-mileage drivetrain wear before paying luxury prices.
