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.

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.

SERVICE BRAKES, AIR:SUPPLY:LOW PRESSURE WARNING:SWITCH

Jul 26, 1995
1,175 units potentially affected
The defect: A LOW AIR PRESSURE WARNING LIGHT LOCATED IN THE DRIVER'S INSTRUMENT CLUSTER FAILS TO ACTIVATE IF THE FRONT BRAKE AIR RESERVOIR SYSTEM FALLS BELOW 60 PSI. THIS DOES NOT COMPLY WITH FMVSS NO.121, "AIR BRAKE SYSTEMS."
The risk: CONSEQUENCE OF NON-COMPLIANCE: LOW AIR PRESSURE IN THE FRONT BRAKE SYSTEM COULD LEAD TO DECREASED VEHICLE BRAKING PERFORMANCE OR CAUSE THE EMERGENCY BRAKE SYSTEM TO ENGAGE WITHOUT THE DRIVER GIVEN VISUAL OR AUDIBLE WARNING.
The remedy: DEALERS WILL INSTALL A WIRING HARNESS WHICH CORRECTLY CONNECTS THE FRONT BRAKE RESERVOIR SYSTEM LOW PRESSURE SWITCH TO THE LOW AIR PRESSURE WARNING LIGHT LOCATED IN THE DRIVER'S INSTRUMENT CLUSTER.

Filed Oct 15, 2004

THIS IS THE SECOND MICHELIN TIRE ON MY MOTOR HOME TO BLOW OUT BOTH ON THE INSIDE REAR OF THE VEHICLE AND BOTH IN THE SAME LOCATION ON THE TIRE. IT WAS THE SIDEWALL. I CHECKED THE TIRE PRESSURE REGULARLY AND DID NOT HIT ANYTHING WHICH WOULD HAVE CAUSED THE PROBLEM. *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.
