This problem was also experienced by a few members on the XT6 site. Apparently the key codes aren't matched to the VIN by the factory or SOA, but instead logged at the dealer. So if a dealer "missed" a car, or just decided that they didn't feel like doing the extra paperwork for the cars they sold, then you will never be able to get the key code with the VIN.
If you have any of the original keys, the code is stamped on it though.
