About this figure

2007 here is the year the recall was filed with NHTSA, not the model year of the vehicles. A 2007 filing routinely covers vehicles built years earlier, and a car of model year 2007 appears in filings for years afterwards.

“Vehicles covered” sums the manufacturer’s own estimate for each campaign. A vehicle recalled twice in 2007 is counted twice, so the figure is not a count of distinct vehicles.

Do Not Drive and Park Outside flags entered NHTSA’s public record in May 2025. This page shows no advisory section for 2007 because the flag did not exist then \u2014 not because no 2007 recall was urgent.

Compiled from NHTSA’s published recall files, which are US government open data and rebuilt daily. Figures on this page reflect the record as of 18 September 2026. Read the methodology, or check a specific vehicle at nhtsa.gov.
