the 10th digit in the VIN Number indicates the year model...
I am not sure how a "letter" indicates the year model. In my case the 10th letter is a "C" and it is a 2012. In the case of JIB27537 his is the letter "E". Now one would think if they were going to do it in this manner they would start with the letter "A", assigning a new number with each years build. Since 2012 was the first year that the 3402RL was produced this makes no sense at all.

I really don't think this 10th digit represents the "year model", however it may represent the year of manufacture unrelated to the model being produced, they have been known to do strange things in Goshen....





The letter C is the code for 2012, not the build year. So yours is correct.
10th digit--Year

RVS manufactured after 2000 show numerical designations. For example, 2001=1, 2002=2, etc. Those manufactured before 2001 show alpha designations; for example X=1999, and Y=2000. After 2009 the tenth character will revert back to alpha: 2010=A 2011=B 2012=C , So as you can see, his being "E" would be a 2014, which it is. If you wanted to use a number it would get mighty confusing every 10 years.
