One of the numbers may possibly have worn off or has become invisible for rust or dirt. Of course, not all V.I.N numbers have 17 characters. Older vehicles often have fewer. The last five digits are generally of little importance anyway, as they usually denote a batch number, and not a make, model, year or specification.
