VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER (VIN)



Every vehicle has a unique VIN. Enter a VIN to learn if a specific vehicle needs
to be repaired as part of a recall.



Enter 17 Character VIN
17/17




WHERE'S MY VIN?

Look on the lower left of your car's windshield for your 17-character Vehicle
Identification Number. Your VIN is also located on your car's registration card,
and it may be shown on your insurance card.

WHAT THIS VIN SEARCH TOOL WILL SHOW

 * An unrepaired vehicle affected by a vehicle safety recall in the past 15
   calendar years
 * Vehicle safety recalls from major light auto automakers, motorcycle
   manufacturers and some medium/heavy truck manufacturers

WHAT THIS VIN SEARCH TOOL WILL NOT SHOW

 * A vehicle with a repaired safety recall. If your vehicle has no unrepaired
   recalls, you will see the message: "0 Unrepaired recalls associated with this
   VIN"
 * Manufacturer customer service or other nonsafety recall campaign
 * International vehicles
 * There may be a delay with very recently announced safety recalls for which
   not all VINs have been identified. VINs are added continuously so please
   check regularly.
 * Safety recalls that are more than 15 years old (except where a manufacturer
   offers more coverage)
 * Safety recalls conducted by small vehicle manufacturers, including some
   ultra-luxury brands and specialty applications

REPORT A SAFETY PROBLEM
BY FILING A COMPLAINT WITH NHTSA

HAVE YOU EXPERIENCED A VEHICLE, TIRE, CAR SEAT, OR EQUIPMENT SAFETY PROBLEM THAT
COULD BE A SAFETY DEFECT?

If so, you can file a complaint that we will carefully review — like we do with
every safety problem submitted to NHTSA. Complaints like yours help us
investigate possible defects, which could lead to a safety recall.

Report a Safety Problem


FROM COMPLAINTS
TO RECALL

NHTSA issues vehicle safety standards and requires manufacturers to recall
vehicles and equipment that have safety-related defects. Learn about NHTSA's
recall process.

01


COMPLAINTS


REPORTING YOUR PROBLEM IS THE IMPORTANT FIRST STEP.

Your complaint will be added to a public NHTSA database after personally
identifying information is removed.

If the agency receives similar reports from a number of people about the same
product, this could indicate that a safety-related defect may exist that would
warrant the opening of an investigation.

02


INVESTIGATIONS


NHTSA CONDUCTS AN INVESTIGATION FROM REPORTED COMPLAINTS.

A. SCREENING

NHTSA reviews filed complaints from vehicle owners and other information related
to alleged defects to decide whether to open an investigation.

B. ANALYSIS

NHTSA conducts an analysis of any petitions calling for defect investigations.
If the petition is denied, the reasons for the denial are published in the
Federal Register.

C. INVESTIGATION

NHTSA opens an investigation of alleged safety defects. It is closed when they
notify the manufacturer of recall recommendations or they don’t identify a
safety-related defect.

D. RECALL MANAGEMENT

NHTSA monitors the effectiveness and management of recalls, including the filing
of recall notices with NHTSA, communicating with owners regarding the recalls
and tracking the completion rate of each recall.

 

03


RECALLS


INITIATED SAFETY RECALLS REQUIRE A MANUFACTURER'S ACTION TO ANNOUNCE AND REMEDY
THE DEFECTS.

A recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle,
equipment, car seat, or tire creates an unreasonable safety risk or fails to
meet minimum safety standards. Most decisions to conduct a recall and remedy a
safety defect are made voluntarily by manufacturers prior to any involvement by
NHTSA.

Manufacturers are required to fix the problem by repairing it, replacing it,
offering a refund, or in rare cases repurchasing the vehicle.

Using our VIN lookup tool, you can access recall information provided by the
manufacturer conducting the recall which may be not posted yet on NHTSA’s site.

ROLES IN THE RECALL PROCESS


MANUFACTURER



Manufacturers will notify registered owners by first class mail within 60 days
of notifying NHTSA of a recall decision. Manufacturers should offer a proper
remedy to the owner.







NHTSA



NHTSA will monitor each safety recall to make sure owners receive safe, free,
and effective remedies from manufacturers according to the Safety Act and
Federal regulations.




YOU (OWNER)



You’ll be notified via mail from the manufacturer. When you receive a
notification, follow any interim safety guidance provided by the manufacturer
and contact your local dealership to fix the recalled part for free.




Tips For Your Safety

Register your vehicle, tires, car seats & equipment and check recalls twice a
year.
