Shop Notes
- Run the VIN before you quote. 389 campaigns in 12 months is about 7 a week. Use the NHTSA VIN lookup first.
- A free fix is the law in most cases. The maker must fix a recall for free, unless the first buyer got the car more than 15 years before the notice. For tires it is 5 years. See 49 U.S.C. 30120.
- Not every recall is a parts job. The fix text mentions software in 113 of 389 campaigns. For rear cameras it is 29 of 40. Check before you sell a camera or a screen.
- Mind the stop advice. 22 campaigns carry a Do Not Drive or Park Outside warning. If the VIN shows Park Outside, do not leave that car in your bay at night.
- Complaints point to work with no recall behind it. Engine and Cooling drew the most complaints, at 19,762, with 16 campaigns. That customer may still need a paid repair.
- Tell the customer what you found. Spot an open recall and you save the customer money. They will remember that next time.

How We Count
We read the NHTSA recall and complaint files as they stood on November 3, 2026. We count only car and light truck brands, and only full months.
- Each campaign counts once in the top totals. Two makes can share a campaign, and then it shows under both. So do not add up the make numbers.
- Units come from the maker's filing. A shared campaign shows its full count under each make.
- Fix Mentions Software means the word software shows up in the fix text. We match that word ourselves, so read the campaign to confirm.
- Stop Advice means the campaign has a Do Not Drive or Park Outside warning.
- Each complaint counts once per make and once per system. Owners file them, so a complaint is a lead and not a finding.
- We turn NHTSA part names into plain system names. Unclear names go under Other or Unknown.
NHTSA files recalls by campaign for the whole country, so this tracker has no state map.
