Agency
NHTSA oversees recalls of vehicles, tires, child seats, and motor-vehicle equipment. Each campaign is identified by an NHTSA campaign number.
NHTSA regulates the safety of every motor vehicle sold in the US plus tires, child seats, and motor-vehicle equipment. Recalls are coordinated under a numbering scheme called the NHTSA Campaign Number — a string like 25V123000 where the first two digits are the year, V is for vehicle (T is for tires, C for child seats, E for equipment), and the rest identifies the campaign. Every vehicle in our database can be looked up by VIN to check whether any active campaigns affect it.
NHTSA recalls are unusual in two ways. First, the cause is usually a defined defect or non-compliance with a Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard rather than a pathogen or contamination event — so 'severity' tracks the consequence of the defect (does the airbag fail to deploy, does the steering lose assist, does the fuel tank leak) rather than reported illnesses. Second, every NHTSA recall is mandatory for the manufacturer to remedy at no charge to the owner, for as long as the vehicle is on the road. There's no expiration on a NHTSA campaign.
We enrich every recall with the full make / model / year-range affected so you can see at a glance whether your vehicle is in scope. If you're not sure, the VIN lookup decodes your specific vehicle and cross-references the database. The remedy is always free — usually a dealer visit for a part replacement, software update, or inspection.
Honda is recalling 2024 CR-V vehicles because the tires are missing required date code markings on the tire identification number. This prevents owners from identifying recalled tires and increases crash risk.
Tesla is recalling certain 2021-2023 Model S and Model X vehicles because front-row seat belts may not be connected properly to pretensioner anchors and could detach. A detached seat belt may fail to properly restrain an occupant during a crash.
Certain 2020-2021 Entegra and Jayco motorhomes are recalled because inadequate HVAC blower motor circuit wiring can overheat, increasing fire risk. The remedy involves relocating and replacing the fuse and wiring harness.
General Motors is recalling certain 2022 Chevrolet Colorado vehicles with manual passenger seats due to improperly welded front seat hooks that may separate, potentially failing to properly restrain occupants in a crash.
Certain 2023 Jayco Swift and Entegra Ethos motorhomes have faulty driver seat belt warning systems that fail to activate, risking improper seat belt use in crashes. Dealers will replace the affected buckle assembly free of charge.
General Motors is recalling 2024 Cadillac XT5 vehicles because the driver's front airbag cushion may tear during deployment, preventing proper airbag operation. A non-deploying airbag increases the risk of injury in a crash.
Certain 2021 Jayco Redhawk motorhomes have a defective power steering connection that can cause sudden loss of power steering and brake assist, increasing crash risk. Dealers will replace the defective parts free of charge.
The rearview camera image may be obstructed by a trailer parking assist message, reducing rearward visibility and increasing crash risk. An over-the-air software update will fix the issue.
Porsche is recalling certain 2020-2021 Taycan vehicles because the driver and passenger seat wire harness could become damaged during horizontal seat adjustment. A damaged harness may deactivate airbags, increasing crash injury risk.
Winnebago is recalling 2021–2023 Micro Minnie travel trailers because the spare tire carrier may fail and detach, posing a road hazard and increasing crash risk. Dealers will replace the carrier free of charge.
REV Recreation is recalling 2023 motorhomes due to a faulty entry door latch that may fail, preventing occupants from entering or exiting during an emergency. About 479 units are affected.
Certain 2022 and 2023 BMW IX and X1 vehicles have defective driver-side airbags that may not deploy during a crash. Dealers will replace the airbags at no charge.
Indian Motorcycle Company is recalling certain 2019-2022 Challenger, FTR 1200, and Pursuit motorcycles due to brake lights that may illuminate unexpectedly without rider input, potentially confusing following drivers and increasing crash risk.
Forest River is recalling 2023-2024 Salem and Wildwood fifth wheel travel trailers due to incorrect tire size information on their federal placards. This could lead to wrong tire installation and increased crash risk.
Subaru is recalling 2019-2022 Crosstrek Hybrid vehicles because the harness terminal supplying power to the 12-Volt battery may corrode and break, preventing charging. A non-functioning battery can cause loss of drive power and increase crash risk.
Mercedes-Benz is recalling 2019-2022 GLC 300, 2020 GLC 350e, and 2020-2022 AMG GLC 43 vehicles for headlights that may be incorrectly adjusted, creating glare for oncoming traffic. Dealers will correct the adjustment free of charge.
Nissan is recalling approximately 57,914 LEAF vehicles (2018-2022) where the rearview camera harness may become damaged, causing image distortion or loss and reducing rear visibility.
Certain 2019-2021 Audi vehicles are recalled for rear axle misalignment that may cause premature tire wear and increase crash risk. Dealers will inspect and adjust the alignment at no charge, replacing any worn tires as needed.
Toyota is recalling certain 2021 Venza Hybrid vehicles due to water intrusion in rear turn signal lights, which can cause electrical short circuits and lighting failure, increasing crash risk.
Porsche is recalling multiple electric vehicle models due to fire risk from overheating 220V/240V charging cables. Owners should not use these cables and should instead use 110V charging or public stations.
Audi is recalling select 2019-2024 electric vehicles due to fire risk from overheating 220V/240V home charging cables. Owners should stop using the affected cables and switch to 110V charging or public stations until replacement cables with temperature sensors are supplied.
Porsche is recalling 2021-2023 Taycan models due to a potential short circuit in the high-voltage battery that increases the risk of fire. Owners should contact Porsche customer service at 1-800-767-7243 for free inspection and repair.
Honda recalls 2020-2022 CR-V Hybrid vehicles whose 12-volt battery cable is missing a fuse on the power circuit, which can cause short circuits or overheating during crashes and increase the risk of fire or injury.
Software in 2025 Rivian R1S and R1T vehicles may disable exterior lights when the Car Costume feature is activated, reducing visibility and increasing crash risk. Rivian released a free software update to fix the issue.
Porsche is recalling 2021-2024 Taycan vehicles due to high-voltage battery short circuits that increase fire risk. Dealers will install diagnostic software and replace batteries as needed, advising owners to charge only to 80% capacity until repairs are completed.
