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.

Latest Jul 16, 2008
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.

THE TIRES ON MY TRAILER HAVE LESS THAN 500 MILES ON THEM ARE NOT PARKED IN DIREST SUN LIGHT AND ARE CRACKED IN THE SIDEWALLS AND TREADS AND THIS INCLUDES THE SPARE ! I WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS THE WEIGHT OF THE TRAILER THAT CAUSED THIS TO HAPPEN , BUT THERE IS NO WEIGHT ON THE SPARE TIRE AND ITS COVERED ! THE TIRES ARE NANCO ST 205/75D-15 AND WERE BOUGHT NEW ON THE TRAILER 2005 . IF IT IS CAUSED BY THE WEIGHT OF THE TRAILER IS THE ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE OF THE EARTH CAUSING THE SPARE TO CRACK ? DON'T'!@#$% ON MY LEG AND TELL ME THAT ITS RAINING ! HERE IS NANCOS 800-227-8925 GOOD LUCK TRYING TO RECEIVE JUSTICE ! ALL I RECEIVED FROM THIS COMPANY WAS A "STORY" ABOUT AIR AND PRESSURE .
