Every Ford Edge (2019–2024) carries a 17-character VIN that begins with the 2FM WMI. The Edge is a gas SUV; this page shows what each character of a Ford Edge VIN means and gives 4 checksum-valid sample VINs you can drop straight into test fixtures. Synthetic — not real: no scraping, no real-owner data. The generator below is pre-filtered to the Edge.
Each sample below is built from the real 2FM WMI and the Edge's descriptor, so it decodes to a Ford Edge of the right model year:

Worked on the sample 2FMPK4J91KB299568 — a 2019 Ford Edge:
| Position | Section | Value | What it tells you |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1–3 | WMI | 2FM | Marks the VIN as Ford, built in Canada |
| 4–8 | VDS | PK4J9 | Descriptor for the Edge — SUV body, gas powertrain |
| 9 | Check digit | 1 | Mod-11 checksum over the other 16 characters |
| 10 | Model year | K | Code K = 2019 |
| 11 | Plant | B | Assembly-plant code |
| 12–17 | Serial | 299568 | Sequential production number |
Positions 1–3 of every Ford Edge VIN read 2FM — the World Manufacturer Identifier that marks the vehicle as Ford, assembled in Canada (North America). After the WMI, positions 4–8 (PK4J9 in our seed) describe the Edge itself; see the full 17-digit format.
Position 10 encodes the model year. For the Edge, 2019 is code K and 2024 is code R. See the 2024 year code or the check-digit math.

A Ford Edge VIN is 17 characters starting with the 2FM WMI, for example 2FMPK4J91KB299568. Positions 4–8 describe the Edge, position 9 is the check digit, position 10 is the model year, and 12–17 are the serial number.
Read it left to right: 2FM is the Ford WMI, positions 4–8 are the Edge descriptor, position 9 verifies the VIN via a mod-11 checksum, position 10 gives the year, position 11 the plant, and 12–17 the serial. Paste any VIN into the decoder to do it automatically.
The Edge in our seed uses the 2FM WMI (Canada). Any VIN beginning with 2FM decodes to Ford.
No. They are synthetically generated but checksum-valid, use the real Ford 2FM WMI, and carry the Edge's descriptor and a valid year code — so a decoder returns a Ford Edge. No real vehicle's VIN is used.
