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 29, 2022
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.

Reports submitted to NHTSA, shown in the owner's own words

Filed Nov 30, 2023

The black tank dump valve, connecting rod bent. Which makes it impossible to close the black tank valve after dumping the raw sewage. This is a major biohazard and environmental hazard. Because raw sewage can dump on to the surface or near by water. I tried to straighten the rod as best as I possibly could. But I was still unable to close the valve.
