Factual error: Near the beginning, it's clear we're in Chicago because we're hearing a Chicago radio station. Clark turns the corner before nearly running into people in the road. You can see mountains in the background very briefly. The Griswold house was one of the properties on the Warner Brothers Ranch in Burbank, California which has since been demolished.

Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the movie, when Clark is driving down the street looking at the map, there are 4 kids roller blading in the street. In one shot, one of the kids jumps onto a parkway lawn to avoid being hit by Clark's bad driving. Next shot, when they pan back to the kids, all 4 are still on the street.
