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.

CAR JUMPS WHEN GAS PRESSED. IN THE PAST IT WAS ONLY OCCASIONAL BUT NOW IT IS MORE FREQUENT. LAST WEEK THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THE TRANSMISSION IS THE PROBLEM. THIS CAR HAS ALWAYS BEEN SERVICED BY THE HONDA DEALER AND ONLY DRIVEN ON WEEKENDS. . AFTER RESEARCHING I FOUND OUT THAT THE TRANSMISSION ON HONDA ACCORDS IS A KNOWN DEFECT. THERE WAS A CLASS ACTION BUT I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED. THE DEALER DOES NOT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THE CLASS ACTION SETTLEMENT OR WHY I WAS NOT NOTIFIED. EVEN THOUGH WE DON'T PUT MANY MILES ON THIS CAR BUT SOON MY TEENAGER WILL BE READY TO DRIVE. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE I WOULD LIKE HONDA TO FIX THIS DEFECT. *TR

They are not recalls: repairs described in a bulletin are usually only free if the vehicle is still under warranty or the manufacturer has extended coverage.
