Urgent advisories in 2024

23 of the 2024 recalls tell owners to stop driving the vehicle. 10 warn of a fire risk while parked.

Have they been repaired?

Manufacturers report progress quarterly on 1,029 of the 2024 campaigns. Across those, 68.8% of the 32,160,880 vehicles involved have been repaired, leaving 9,282,659 outstanding.

The remaining 2024 campaigns are not in the quarterly file at all, so this is a rate across those that report, not across everything filed that year. See repair completion in full.

About this figure

2024 here is the year the recall was filed with NHTSA, not the model year of the vehicles. A 2024 filing routinely covers vehicles built years earlier, and a car of model year 2024 appears in filings for years afterwards.

“Vehicles covered” sums the manufacturer’s own estimate for each campaign. A vehicle recalled twice in 2024 is counted twice, so the figure is not a count of distinct vehicles.

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.
