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 Jun 25, 2010
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.

I HAVE A 2008 MONACO, ADMIRAL CLASS A MOTOR HOME ON A WORKHORSE CHASSIS. THE FAILURE OCCURRED ON THE UN-USED GASOLINE TANK FILL PORT. THIS PORT ALLOWS THE MANUFACTURER TO HAVE THE FILL PORT ON EITHER SIDE. THE UNUSED FILL PORT WAS SEALED OFF WITH A SHORT LENGTH OF RADIATOR HOSE, WHICH WILL FAIL IN THE PRESENCE OF GASOLINE, AND A METRIC HOSE PLUG. BOTH WERE SEALED WITH PIPE CLAMPS. AFTER FILLING UP THE TANK IN TUSCON AZ, COSTCO WE WENT INTO THE STORE AND CAME OUT A FEW MINUTES LATER TO FIND A 1/8 OR BETTER STREAM OF GASOLINE COMING OUT OF THE SIDE OF THE TANK. WE IMMEDIATELY TURNED OFF THE PROPANE REFRIGERATOR AND WENT TO A SAFE AREA WITH A DIRT/GRAVEL BASE. A SERVICE TECHNICIAN REMOVED THE "PLUG" (WHICH I STILL HAVE) AND REPLACED IT WITH HOSE DESIGNED FOR FUEL. IF WE HAD NOT COME BACK IMMEDIATELY TO THE MOTORHOME THE PROPANE REFRIGERATOR, A PASSING SMOKER, OR A SPARK COULD HAVE CAUSED A MAJOR CONFLAGRATION WITH THE LOSS OF LIFE. A RECALL ALERT SHOULD BE ISSUED TO INSPECT AND REPLACE IF NECESSARY THE UN-USED FILL PORTS ON WORKHORSE CHASSIS. THE FILL PORT HOSE USED ON MY MOTOR HOME ON THE OTHER SIDE WAS CORRECT. THE CHOICE OF A MONACO ADMIRAL DOES NOT APPEAR ON THE CHOICES IN THE FOLLOWING PAGE PLEASE CONTACT ME IF YOU NEED A SAMPLE OF THE FAILED HOSE OR WISH MORE INFORMATION. *TR

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.
