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.

IN REVIEWING WHY WE WERE REPLACING TIRES FREQUENTLY, WE NOTICE THAT THE TIRE LABEL INDICATED THAT AXLE RATING WAS 5200# BUT INDICATED THAT TIRE SIZE AND PRESSURE WERE 225/75 15 @ 65 PSI. ST 225/75 R15 TIRES LOAD RANGE D WITH 65 PSI ARE ONLY RATED FOR 2540# EACH PUTTING MAXIMUM WEIGHT ON THE 2 TIRES PER AXLE AT ONLY 5080#. WE HAVE HAD TO CHANGE TO A LOAD RANGE E TIRE WHICH ARE RATED AT 2830# AT 85 PSI. THE DATA TAG IS INCORRECTLY LABELED AND THEREFOR BY FOLLOWING THE TAG FOR REPLACEMENT TIRES WE HAVE BEEN USING TIRES THAT WERE OVER LOADED AND HAD TO BE REPLACED DUE TO BLOW OUTS ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. A TOTAL OF 5 BLOW OUTS AND 2 ADDITIONAL TIRES THAT WERE DEFECTIVE DURING THE TIME WE OWNED THE TRAILER PRIOR TO CHANGING TO LOAD RANGE E TIRES.

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.
