The iZEV program began in 2019 I believe, and given the timeline these sort of investigations and hearings take I would bet they did catch it pretty quickly.
Rather than comparing VINs another way to compare would be to go off the monthly or quarterly tax statements from corporations comparing sales to volume of rebates that way, but if they were committing fraud on the rebates that means they would also be committing tax fraud, but I have absolutely no idea how it was actually implemented I’m just spitballing here.
Right, you’d think they would provide vin numbers, which the government would then check against vehicle registrations with whatever DMV equivalent.
