Has anyone correlated VIN with car issues?

Hmmm... That's a good question. I haven't really noticed any correlation but regardless, since Alliston was the lead plant on the civic and was the plant that designed the assembly process, all the errors ultimately fall on their shoulders. (Unless another plant was just being negligent in not following the process).

Japan designed the powertrain, North America designed the rest of the car, Alliston figured out how to build it. If your problem is assembly, it's Alliston. Design flaws in the powertrain are Japan's fault, and design flaws in the rest of the vehicle fall to Indiana and Alliston equally.
