Recalls, owner-reported complaints, investigations and safety data

Data refreshed

Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

Safety recallsA safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
0
InvestigationsNHTSA opens an investigation to examine whether a safety defect may exist. An open investigation is not a determination that a defect exists, and many investigations close without a recall. Investigations can, however, lead to one.
0
Crash or fire reportedComplaints whose submitter recorded that a crash or a fire occurred. These are the reporter's own answers on the NHTSA form, not verified findings.

OUR DUEL-PANE WINDOWS ON OUR 1994 BOUNDER MOTORHOME MADE BY FLEETWOOD HAD TO BE REPAIRED BECAUSE WE COULDN'T SEE OUR REAR-VIEW MIRRORS! A GLASS MAN TOOK THE WINDOWS OUT, CLEANED THEM, RESEALED THEM, AND REPLACED THEM BACK IN THE COACH! WE HAD ONE OTHER REPLACED NEAR THE ENTRANCE DOOR, AND NOW WE HAVE ANOTHER LARGE WINDOW OVER THE COUCH THAT MUST BE REPLACED BECAUSE THE GLASS IS SO CLOUDY WE CAN'T SEE OUT OF IT! WE HAVE PICTURES OF THE BAD WINDOWS AND STILL HAVE THE ONE BAD WINDOW STILL ON THE COACH! *TR
