Common errors

error AttributeError: module 'faker_vehicle' has no attribute 'VehicleProvider' ↓

cause Incorrect import: import faker_vehicle and then using faker_vehicle.VehicleProvider may fail if package structure changed.

fix

Use 'from faker_vehicle import VehicleProvider'

error AttributeError: 'Faker' object has no attribute 'vehicle_make_model' ↓

cause Provider not added to the Faker instance.

fix

Call fake.add_provider(VehicleProvider) before using provider methods.

Warnings

gotcha Provider must be added to a Faker instance before use; calling VehicleProvider methods directly without adding will raise AttributeError. ↓

fix Ensure you call fake.add_provider(VehicleProvider) before generating data.

deprecated Faker v13+ changed provider registration; old-style direct instantiation no longer works. Must use add_provider method. ↓

fix Use Faker.add_provider(VehicleProvider) instead of VehicleProvider(fake).
