StickerByVIN

What StickerByVIN does

StickerByVIN provides a VIN lookup through the Model Context Protocol. An MCP client sends a 17-character vehicle identification number to the remote service, and the service returns information about the corresponding vehicle and its factory window-sticker record.

The response can identify the vehicle's year, make, model, trim, engine, drivetrain, body type, and assembly plant. It also indicates whether the original factory window sticker, commonly called a Monroney label, is on file for that VIN. In addition, the service reports how many recalls were issued for the model and explains where the vehicle's paint code is printed.

Coverage is for vehicles sold new in the United States. Original stickers are primarily available for recent models from Ford, Lincoln, Jeep, Ram, Dodge, Chrysler, Chevrolet, GMC, Cadillac, Buick, Toyota, Lexus, Hyundai, Kia, and Nissan.

How it works

StickerByVIN is accessed as a remote MCP server at https://stickerbyvin.com/mcp. The endpoint does not require authentication. An MCP-compatible client can expose the available tool to an agent, which then supplies the VIN when a user asks for vehicle or sticker information.

The lookup is centered on one input: a 17-character VIN. The tool uses that identifier to decode the vehicle and check related factory-sticker and model-recall information. Paint-code guidance identifies where to look on the vehicle; it is not a replacement for inspecting the vehicle itself.

Setup and configuration

Configure an MCP client to use the remote server endpoint:

https://stickerbyvin.com/mcp

No API key or other authentication value is required. After adding the endpoint, the client can make check_window_sticker available to an agent. The agent should provide a complete 17-character VIN for each lookup.

Tools and capabilities

check_window_sticker

Use this tool to:

• Decode the vehicle year, make, model, trim, engine, drivetrain, body, and assembly plant.
• Check whether the original factory window sticker is on file for the VIN.
• Count recalls issued for the vehicle's model.
• Locate the vehicle's paint-code label or marking.

The tool is intended for vehicle identification and factory-sticker checks. It does not return accident history, title history, or ownership history.

Limitations and notes

A valid 17-character VIN is required. Results apply to vehicles sold new in the United States. Sticker availability varies by vehicle, with the strongest coverage focused on recent models from the listed manufacturers; a decoded vehicle does not necessarily mean its original Monroney label is on file. Recall counts are reported for the model rather than as a vehicle-specific recall or ownership record. Paint-code output describes where to find the code, not the code itself.
