Every factory-installed option with its individual price. The definitive record of what the car actually has.

Monroney label FAQ

What is a Monroney label?

A Monroney label is the official price sticker that federal law requires on the window of every new car sold in the United States. It is named after Senator Almer "Mike" Monroney, who sponsored the Automobile Information Disclosure Act of 1958. The label lists the base MSRP, every factory-installed option with its price, the destination charge, EPA fuel-economy ratings, crash-test safety ratings, parts-content origin, and the assembly plant.

How do I look up a Monroney label by VIN?

Enter the 17-character VIN in the lookup tool on this page. If the manufacturer publishes window stickers publicly (Chevrolet, GMC, Buick, Cadillac, Ford, Lincoln, Jeep, Ram, Dodge, Chrysler, Hyundai, Genesis), we retrieve the original Monroney PDF directly from the manufacturer's own system — free, with no account.

Is it legal to remove a Monroney label?

Only the buyer may remove it. Under the Automobile Information Disclosure Act, it is illegal for a dealer to remove or alter the Monroney label before the vehicle is delivered to the final purchaser — the fine is up to $1,000 per vehicle.

Can I get the Monroney label for a used car?

Often, yes. The manufacturer systems we query keep window stickers for recent model years (typically 2016 and newer for most supported brands), so a used vehicle's original sticker is frequently still retrievable by VIN. For brands that do not publish stickers publicly, the $9.99 CarWhere Full VIN Report reconstructs the factory build from the VIN — it is not an official manufacturer sticker.

Which manufacturers publish Monroney labels publicly?

Chevrolet, GMC, Buick, Cadillac, Ford, Lincoln, Jeep, Ram, Dodge, Chrysler, Hyundai, and Genesis currently serve original window stickers from public systems. Toyota and Lexus retired public access in 2026 and Kia removed its service. Honda, Acura, Nissan, Infiniti, Subaru, Mazda, Volkswagen, Audi, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Volvo, Porsche, Tesla, Rivian, and Lucid do not — for those, ask the selling dealer to print the original from their internal system.

What is the difference between a Monroney label and a build sheet?

The Monroney label is the consumer-facing price sticker with MSRP, options pricing, and EPA ratings. A build sheet is an internal factory document listing every component and option code used to assemble the vehicle, without retail prices. For price negotiation, the Monroney is the document that matters.

Source notes: The federal window-sticker requirement comes from the Automobile Information Disclosure Act of 1958, 15 U.S.C. § 1232, which requires manufacturers of new automobiles to affix a label disclosing the make, model, VIN, final assembly point, MSRP, optional equipment pricing, transportation charge, and total price; NHTSA safety-rating information is added under 49 U.S.C. § 32302.
