CARSMULTIVERSEWatch a recall

Every American recall carries two dates. The first is the day the manufacturer told the regulator there was a defect. The second is the day it told the people driving the cars. The law allows sixty days between them.

Of the 15,229 campaigns on the American register since 2010, 174 filed in the last three years have passed the sixty days with no letter recorded against them. Another 96 older ones are in the same state. This is that list, by manufacturer, rebuilt whenever the register moves.

By manufacturer

Ordered by how many notices are outstanding from the last three years. A manufacturer with ten or more campaigns on the register has a page of its own, listing the notices and the day each was filed.

How to read this

A blank notification date is a gap in the record, and that is not the same as a gap in the post. The Administrator may set a date other than the sixty days. An interim letter can go out and be followed by a second one the file does not carry. Very old entries are the least reliable of all, which is why they are counted separately. What is on this page is what the register says, and nothing beyond it.

Why only America, for now

This site keeps six national registers. The American one is the only one that publishes both dates: the day the manufacturer filed its report and the day it wrote to owners. Canada, Britain, the European alerts and Japan record when a notice was published, which is a different thing, so the question cannot honestly be put to them. If any of them starts carrying the second date, it will appear here in the same four states, without the table changing shape.

Built from the American bulk recall file, one row per campaign, rebuilt when the register moves. The sixty days come from 49 CFR 577.7. The waiting time on this page is counted from the day the report was filed to today, not to the day the file was last published.
