How Can I Tell Where My TL Is Built????

I hope this is not a stupid question but I am curious. I found out today from my dealer that 3rd GEN TL are built either in Canada or US. I always thought all TL's are built in USA. However, my dealer was not able to find out where my TL was built (How stupid or what). So does anyone know how we can tell??? The VIN# maybe??? I don't think it really matters where our TL are built but always good to know I guess.

All 3rd and 2nd gen TLs are built in Ohio. 1st gen TLs were built in Japan.

Look at your VIN, it begins with the number 1.

1 = USA
2 = Canada
J = Japan
