Hearth Record

Vehicles before 2015, 2002

Shortlist up to four to read them side by side.

438 recalls naming only model years before 2015 that NHTSA received in 2002, newest first; 16,483 in all since 1966.

Model years before 2015 have no pages of their own here: each recall names the ones it covers, and search finds them by make, model and year. Your VIN, at NHTSA, says which recalls are open on a vehicle. Copied Nov 5, 2026.

    NHTSA, Recalls flat file and Recalls flat file before 2010. Released Nov 5, 2026. Updated daily.

    Vehicle, car seat, tire and vehicle equipment recalls, owner complaints and crash ratings are from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).

    Side by side

    The same published facts for each, in the same order, in their sources’ words.

    Every line is what NHTSA’s files say. They aren’t ranked against each other, and a thing no recall names isn’t safe by that: a file says only what it holds.
