OEM factory label
Associated with a specific new-vehicle VIN and typically includes original equipment, factory options, destination charges, fuel-economy information, and original MSRP. Preserve the VIN and source.
Vehicle-label intelligence
Not every “window sticker” is the same document.
Factory labels, Used Car Buyers Guides, and dealer-created merchandising sheets serve different purposes. eWindowSticker helps teams identify the source before they share or rely on it.

Three document types
The name is similar. The authority is not.
Identify the document before using its equipment, warranty, pricing, or disclosure information.
FTC Used Car Buyers Guide
A standardized used-vehicle warranty disclosure. The FTC says dealers must not alter its required wording, font, or format. It is not a factory equipment label.
Dealer-created label
A separate sales or merchandising sheet may summarize features and price, but it should be truthful, sourced, current, and clearly distinguished from required or factory documents.

DealerCRM workflow
From VIN to a source-aware customer share
DealerCRM treats the label as part of the inventory and customer workflow—not a mystery PDF in a folder.
Resolve the VIN
The inventory record anchors the request to a specific unit.
Request the manufacturer label
DealerCRM uses brand-specific retrieval paths and recognizes when a manufacturer reports no label.
Preserve the source
The system distinguishes an available factory document from a simulated or dealer-created representation.
Share in context
Employees can open the label from inventory and include it in the customer’s vehicle experience when available.

Plain answers
Frequently asked questions
Scope, ownership, and limitations—without fine-print surprises.
Is an OEM factory label the same as an FTC Buyers Guide?
No. A factory label describes the new vehicle and its equipment or pricing information. The FTC Buyers Guide is a standardized used-vehicle warranty disclosure.
Can DealerCRM retrieve every factory window sticker?
No. Availability and retrieval behavior vary by manufacturer, model year, VIN, and source. DealerCRM reports when no factory label is available and distinguishes simulated material.
Does eWindowSticker provide legal advice?
No. It provides document-identification and workflow guidance. Dealers should use current FTC, state, manufacturer, and legal guidance for compliance decisions.
Put the factory label where the customer conversation already lives.
DealerCRM connects available VIN-based factory labels with inventory, eBrochures, customer communications, and OliviaAI.
