4/22: VIN Etching

Help prevent auto theft by joining us for our free 𝐕𝐢𝐧 𝐄𝐭𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 event on Monday, April 22 from 3-6 pm at the Christiansburg Fire Department.

𝘿𝙞𝙙 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙠𝙣𝙤𝙬? All vehicles carry a federally assigned number known as the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). Making sure those numbers are marked permanently on a vehicle’s windows steers thieves away. The windows of stolen VIN etched vehicles must be stripped and replaced before a thief can get rid of the car – which is a costly and time-consuming process.

Vin etching is simple, fast, safe and won’t mar the look of the vehicle. Numbers are etched into the glass with a chemical solution and those numbers will remain there for good.

Thank you to our friends from the Christiansburg Volunteer Fire Department, the Christiansburg Police Department, and the Virginia State Police Department for partnering with us on this great community offering!
