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.

Seat belts
Filed Apr 24, 2000

RECENTLY THE ANCHOR CLIP ON THE SEAT BELT NO LONGER HOLDS THE BELT . DEALER TOLD ME THAT THEY NO LONGER MAKE A REPLACEMENT. HOW CAN MANUFACTURURES GET AWAY WITH NOT MAKING VITAL SAFETY EQUIPEMENT ? NAPA AUTO PARTS STORES DO NOT CARRY ANY AFTER MARKET BELT ASSEMBLY THAT CAN REPLACE IT. THERE ARE NO SALVAGE YARDS IN MY AREA THAT HAVE THE BELTS, BESIDES I DO NOT FEEL SAFE USING A USED BELT. ALL MANUFACTURES SHOULD MAKE VITAL COMPONENTS ESPECIALLY WHEN THE VAN IS NOT EVEN TEN YEARS OLD. THE BELT PROMPTED MY REPORT, BUT THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM HAS NOT WORKED FOR THREE YEARS NOW. I HAVE HAD MACHANICS LOOK AT IT BUT TO NO AVAIL. I HAVE LOCKED TIRES IN BRAKING THREE TIMES SINCE THEN, TWICE IN THE RAIN. THE SEAT BELT REALLY CONCERNS ME. *AK

Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers. Older model years have had longer for reports to accumulate.
