A vehicle record built to last.

Each FORGED CERTIFIED™ vehicle receives an individual digital record connecting the vehicle, installed protection, certification number and participating dealer. The record remains available through the FORGED verification platform, subject to applicable program requirements.

For dealers

Verify a certification by VIN.

Professionally installed protection becomes a documented, registered, individual record through FORGED CONNECT™ — a certification a dealer can confirm in seconds from the identification number alone.

01

Enter the identification number

Open the verification page and enter the VIN — or the identification number used in that market — exactly as it appears on the unit.

02

Read the certification status

A registered unit returns its certification number, the participating dealer of record and the current status of the certification.

03

Confirm what is documented

The record shows the protection documented at registration through FORGED CONNECT™, so a trade-in or resale conversation is based on the record rather than recollection.

04

No record found

If nothing is returned, the unit is not registered through FORGED CONNECT™. Participating dealers can register qualifying installations through the dealer portal.

Verification confirms the information recorded at registration and the current status of the certification. It is not an inspection, appraisal or condition report, and certification is issued only when the applicable protection, documentation, registration and program requirements are satisfied.

Eligibility review

Protected.

Documented.

Certified.

Submit your vehicle information for an initial eligibility review. A FORGED CERTIFIED™ credential may be issued only after an authorized participating dealer confirms the qualifying program, installed protection and required vehicle documentation.

Submitting this form does not automatically create a FORGED CERTIFIED credential. Eligibility depends on the installed product, participating dealer program, required documentation and applicable program terms.

Protection systems

Applicable protection systems — select at least one

This is an initial eligibility review request, not a registration or an issued certification. A FORGED CERTIFIED™ credential may be issued only after an authorized participating dealer confirms the qualifying program, installed protection and required vehicle documentation.

Register + verify

Registration is the bridge to the record.

A qualifying installation is identified by VIN, registered, documented through FORGED CONNECT™, issued as an individual certification and made verifiable — with applicable information entering the CARFAX® reporting workflow.
