Browse all NHTSA safety recalls affecting consumer vehicles, ordered by date reported.
| Campaign # | Reported | Description | Affected Vehicles |
|---|---|---|---|
| 14V493000 | 7/25/2014 | Failure of the pivot bolts may cause the suspension and attached axle to separate from the trailer, increasing the risk of a crash. | |
| 14V492000 | 7/25/2014 | Failure of the pivot bolts may cause the suspension and attached axle to separate from the trailer, increasing the risk of a crash. | |
| 14V491000 | 8/8/2014 | The leaking oil may soak into the thermal blanket covering the exhaust, which when combined with heat from exhaust, may result in an increased risk of fire. | |
| 14V490000 | 8/8/2014 | If the key can be removed from the ignition when the ignition is not in the "off" position, the vehicle could roll away: (a) for an automatic transmission, if the transmission is not in the "Park" position; or (b) for a manual transmission, if the parking brake is not engaged and the transmission is not in the "Reverse" position. This potential for rollaway increases the risk for a crash and occupant or pedestrian injuries. | |
| 14V489000 | 8/8/2014 | The storage compartment door may not remain closed in the event of a crash, increasing the risk of occupant injury. | |
| 14V488000 | 8/8/2014 | If the seat belts do not remain locked in the retracted position when under load, the seat occupant may not be adequately restrained in a crash, increasing the risk of injury. | |
| 14V487000 | 8/7/2014 | In the event an individual is trapped in the trunk and the latch system does not release the trunk lid, it increases the risk of personal injury or possibly death. | |
| 14V485000 | 8/6/2014 | If the headlights and fog lights go out, there is an increased risk of a crash. | |
| 14V484000 | 8/6/2014 | Air bubbles in the windshield could impact the driver's visibility, increasing the risk of a crash. | |
| 14V483000 | 8/6/2014 | A sliding door without the epoxy reinforcement has an increased potential of unlatching in certain side impact crashes. A door that unlatches may open, allowing for a vehicle occupant to be ejected in a crash, increasing the risk of injury. | |
| 14V482000 | 8/6/2014 | A brake fluid leak may lengthen the distance needed to stop the vehicle. If both of the rear brake junctions leak, there may a complete loss of braking. Either of these scenarios increase the risk of a crash. | |
| 14V481000 | 8/6/2014 | If the knee airbag air bag does not deploy properly during a crash, there is an increased risk of driver injury. | |
| 14V480000 | 8/5/2014 | Excessive heat and melting wiring insulation may result in an electrical short, increasing the risk of a fire. | |
| 14V479000 | 8/5/2014 | The leaking oil may soak into the thermal blanket covering the exhaust, which when combined with heat from exhaust, may result in an increased risk of fire. | |
| 14V476000 | 8/4/2014 | A spring that detaches from the hanger may result in a loss of control of the trailer, increasing the risk of a crash. | |
| 14V475000 | 8/4/2014 | If the spare tire is inflated to the incorrect pressure provided on the placard, tire failure may occur while it is being driven on, increasing the risk of a crash. | |
| 14V474000 | 8/1/2014 | Failure of the pivot bolts may cause the suspension and attached axle to separate from the trailer, increasing the risk of a crash. | |
| 14V473000 | 8/1/2014 | If the windshield wiper linkage loosens from the wiper motor, the wipers may become inoperable, reducing the driver's visibility and increasing the risk of a crash. | |
| 14V470000 | 8/1/2014 | If the brake booster was damaged during installation, the vacuum in the brake booster may drop when the brakes are actuated, resulting in a reduced brake force boost, increasing the risk of a crash. | |
| 14V469000 | 7/31/2014 | The improper operation of the sensor could induce elevated exhaust temperatures or flames from the exhaust pipe, increasing the risk of a vehicle fire or burn injury to a person near the exhaust pipe. |
