The HIN provided does not comport with any known coding. Are you sue you are reading it correctly?

For starters, HINs are twelve digits long. You only have eleven.

Yes, by the position of the A, you're missing the last digit. There should be 3 numbers after the letter.

If this number is correct but just missing the last digit, then here is my guess.

The A1 would mean it was manufactured in January of 2001 as a 2001 model.
Then the number would look like this:
BWCBU174A101

Check to see if the missing digit is the number 1 ...
