Where the number comes from

In the United States the count is the safety recall campaigns that NHTSA lists for that make, model and model year; in Canada, the recalls Transport Canada lists; in the United Kingdom, the DVSA recalls whose build dates cover that year; in France, every RappelConso recall naming the model; in the Netherlands, every RDW recall for the type, with how many cars are still not repaired; in Israel, every Ministry of Transport recall naming the model; in the EU, every Safety Gate alert naming the model. NHTSA's register is the largest and most detailed in the world, and many of its recalls also run in Europe, Canada and elsewhere. A campaign may cover only some cars of a model year, so the card is about the model, not your own car. To check one car, use its VIN. A recall repair is free at an authorised dealer.
