Summary 

  Error Code 21917260 may be received when the Item.SellerProvidedTitle tag is not specified for the US or CA eBay Motors vehicle listing. 

 Detailed Description

 SellerProvidedTitle is a descriptive free-text title for a US or CA eBay Motors vehicle listing and replaces the older US and Canada eBay Motors Subtitle attribute (attribute ID 10246).

 Adding the SellerProvidedTitle tag will fix the request error. Here is the sample request that demonstrates the same:

  <RequesterCredentials>
