If you’re buying a new car in 2026, odds are high that you’ll take a look at the vehicle’s window sticker (also known as the Monroney Label). Window stickers are federally mandated to be displayed on all new cars, trucks, and SUVs. Used vehicles however are a different story.
Knowing that the used vehicle you’re looking at has all the features and options you want is much more difficult than you would assume. If you ask the dealership for a copy of the original window sticker, don’t be surprised if they give you a dumbfounded look. Having the original window stickers for a used car is a rarity.
Many automakers make getting the original window sticker quick and easy through their website. Unfortunately, others require that you reach out to a dealership service center. Let’s take a look at how to get a free window sticker in 2026.
What Is the Window Sticker For a Car?
The window sticker, or Monroney label, shows key details like MSRP, fuel efficiency, and standard and optional features, safety scores, and fuel economy ratings when available, and more. Since the passage of the Automobile Disclosure Act of 1958, these window stickers have been required for all new cars in the U.S.
For car buyers, the window sticker shows all of the essential information about the car in one convenient label. For sellers, having the window sticker helps to show potential buyers that you’re serious about providing any and all information that they may like to know about the car. For other drivers, it’s simply great to have all of your car’s key features in one spot.
Window stickers have evolved over the years to include dozens of data points that are meant to help buyers and sellers make informed decisions. Here are some of the most important facts included on each car’s window sticker:
- Vehicle make, model, trim, and description
- Vehicle Identification Number (VIN)
- Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP)
- Standard and optional equipment with pricing
- Destination charges for transportation and dealer prep
- EPA fuel economy ratings for city, highway, and combined driving
- Crash test safety ratings from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA)
- Emissions data, including greenhouse gas scores
- Fuel cost estimates for one year and five years
- A whole lot more…
As you can see, window stickers are full of useful information. Now, let’s look at how to get your window sticker easily, and without spending a penny.
