What it said before

Nothing has changed while we have been watching. We last read the wording of this campaign on 17 September 2026, and it matched the copy we already held.

That copy hashes to b2e86ef51346cf815b5c0b7f9b62ef24…, so if it is ever edited the change is provable rather than a matter of memory.

This is one of 1,836 notices in the record whose component field names electrical system. Across that group the median wait before owners were written to was 41 days.

Last checked . No change has been recorded in the wording.

How to cite this record

Quoting the wording on this page means quoting a version, so the date belongs in the citation:

CarsMultiverse, recall 25V125, wording as read on 17 September 2026. https://carsmultiverse.com/recall/25v125/

The copy quoted above hashes to b2e86ef51346cf815b5c0b7f9b62ef24…. If the notice is reworded later, that fingerprint will not match, which is how a reader checks that the quotation was of the version we say it was.

The cross-border matches used on this site are deposited as a citable dataset: doi:10.5281/zenodo.22087136. The recall wording itself is published by the national authority named above and is theirs, not ours.

The recall record and its wording are published by the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and are US Government public domain.
