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.

Filed Feb 21, 2022

On or about 8/12/2021 on the way home from Coos Bay, OR, I was making a right turn on a clover leaf to enter a freeway. There was a loud grinding noise, vibrations I could feel through the steering wheel, and the RV started fighting my steering inputs. I was unable to control either the speed or direction of the vehicle. It appeared the vehicle was going to leave the roadway. I did not notice any warning lights at the time. I was a preoccupied. According to Ford technicians a "Yaw" sensor detects an amount of sway beyond a set limit and initiated actions through the antilock braking system to maintain control of the vehicle. The Ford technicians were able to duplicate the problem. It occurred in both directions with no apparent physical indications of excess sway or lean while turning the vehicle. The vehicle was not over weight nor were excessive speeds involved in the original incident or during troubleshooting by Ford technicians. According the the information obtained from the Ford technicians the center of gravity for the vehicle is too high. (see attached Ford_Linclon_Fairfield 2.jpg) We upgraded the sway bars to make our vehicle safe to drive. The original front and read sway bars were 7/8 and 1-1/8 inches respectively.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Chassis Advisory Notice - General Motors recalling 2021 Chevrolet Express 4500 chassis - Anti-rotation tabs on the positive battery cable terminals may come into contact with a fuse block assembly attachment post, causing a short circuit. Clearance between the positive battery cable anti-rotation tab and the fuse attachment posts is small enough to allow contact in certain situations. Drivers may get a low battery voltage warning or experience a dead battery. A short-circuit of a positive battery cable to a fuse attachment post can cause battery drain or may lead to an under hood fire. It is recommended that the vehicle be parked outside and not in a garage or other structure until it is repaired. GM Recall 21V189

Manufacturers file copies of the bulletins they send to dealers with NHTSA. These often describe diagnostic or repair procedures for a known condition. 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.
