Wrench.Pro — NHTSA recalls (dataset)
Generated 2026-09-21. Source data through 2026-09-20.

WHAT THIS IS
Recall campaigns matched to year/make/model: campaign number, component, summary, consequence, remedy.
Source: NHTSA recall campaigns (https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls)
Note: One row per vehicle per campaign; a campaign covering many model years appears once per year/make/model.
Note: Whether a specific car was repaired depends on its VIN, which Wrench.Pro never collects.
