Keep us posted, I have a similar problem with a motorcycle from ID that a friend purchased when he lived there. Where there was a 5 in the VIN they typed an S on the title and since out of state title transfers include a vin check CO is telling me they can't do anything. The annoying thing in my situation is that it is the 2nd digit of the vin and the first 4 digits are the same for every bike of that year, the rest of the numbers all match up correctly. I'm interested to see if something like this can be handled out of state.
