1996 Chevrolet Caprice Door Jamb Data Plate: Tire Pressure, GVWR, VIN Label

This photograph shows two factory GM certification/data labels affixed to a door jamb area of a vehicle. The upper label is the Tire-Loading Information placard: it lists seating capacity (3 front, 0 center, 3 rear, 6 total), vehicle capacity weight of 1102 lbs (500 kg), and states max loading at GVWR equals vehicle capacity weight. It gives VIN 1G1BL52P4TR136678, model code BL19 BBT, and specifies P225/70R15 V-speed-rated tires front, rear, and spare, all at 35 PSI / 240 kPa cold pressure, with a note to add 4 PSI / 28 kPa if tires are hot and to see the owner's manual. The lower label is the manufacturer certification label from General Motors Corp, dated 02/96, showing GVWR 5316 lb (2412 kg), GAWR front 2581 lb (1171 kg), GAWR rear 2735 lb (1241 kg), the federal compliance statement, the same VIN, and vehicle type PASS CAR. A reader can learn correct tire size/pressure, load ratings, VIN, model code, and build date. Note: the VIN and GM branding indicate a 1996 GM passenger car (BL19 body code), not the claimed 1991 Ford.
