The documented latitude/longitude radius query is not offered: NHTSA ignores those parameters and returns the same fixed list for any coordinates. - [Complaint](https://firecrawl.dev/alexandria/agents/providers/nhtsa-gov/recalls/complaint): One consumer complaint by ODI number from the documented public complaints API. - [Decode vin](https://firecrawl.dev/alexandria/agents/providers/nhtsa-gov/recalls/decode_vin): Decode a VIN through NHTSA's recalls-site VIN lookup: vPIC decode (year, make, model, vehicle type) plus the matching NHTSA vehicle records (one per trim/series) with recall, complaint, investigation and manufacturer-communication counts. Model-level only: NHTSA's VIN-specific unrepaired-recall check (vinLookupWeb) sits behind reCAPTCHA Enterprise and is not exposed, so a vehicle with recall counts here may or may not have open recalls on this exact VIN. - [Recall campaign](https://firecrawl.dev/alexandria/agents/providers/nhtsa-gov/recalls/recall_campaign): One recall campaign by NHTSA campaign number: full recall text, affected products (every year/make/model) and the public documents (owner letters, remedy notices, acknowledgement) on static.nhtsa.gov. - [Safety ratings](https://firecrawl.dev/alexandria/agents/providers/nhtsa-gov/recalls/safety_ratings): NCAP 5-star safety ratings from the documented public SafetyRatings API: by model year, make and model (every rated variant; one request per variant, up to 10) or by a single NCAP vehicle id. Includes crash-test picture/video URLs and driver-assist availability. - [Search vehicles](https://firecrawl.dev/alexandria/agents/providers/nhtsa-gov/recalls/search_vehicles): Free-text vehicle search on NHTSA's recalls site (e.g. '2020 Toyota Camry'): NHTSA vehicle records with vehicle_id, NCAP id, trim/series and safety-issue counts. Paginated by offset. - [Vehicle complaints](https://firecrawl.dev/alexandria/agents/providers/nhtsa-gov/recalls/vehicle_complaints): Consumer complaints filed with NHTSA for a model year, make and model, from the documented public complaints API. NHTSA returns the whole set in one response; this function pages it client-side by offset. - [Vehicle options](https://firecrawl.dev/alexandria/agents/providers/nhtsa-gov/recalls/vehicle_options): Discovery lists from the documented public products API: model years that have recalls or complaints, makes for a model year, or models for a model year and make. Use the returned values verbatim as inputs to vehicle_recalls, vehicle_complaints and safety_ratings. - [Vehicle recalls](https://firecrawl.dev/alexandria/agents/providers/nhtsa-gov/recalls/vehicle_recalls): Safety recalls for a vehicle, either by NHTSA vehicle_id (recalls site, richer fields: subject, manufacturer campaign number, units affected) or by model year, make and model (documented public recalls API). Model-level: does not check whether a specific VIN has been repaired. ## 1. Choose this provider when US vehicle safety data from NHTSA's public APIs: VIN decode to NHTSA vehicle records, safety recalls by VIN-decoded vehicle or year/make/model, recall campaign detail with affected products and documents, consumer complaints, NCAP safety ratings, year/make/model discovery lists and child car seat inspection stations. ## 2.

Toyota’s VIN lookup returns this vehicle as not affected by the campaign, but the failure pattern matches the recall defect exactly. Timeline of failures and repair attempts: XXX, at approximately 92,832 miles, Camelback Toyota in Phoenix, AZ (RO XXX). Check engine light active. Diagnosed DTC P268115 (Engine Coolant Bypass Valve Circuit, Short to Battery or Open). Battery also failed load test. Overheating symptom noted on the same repair order. Coolant bypass valve replacement recommended. Following that visit, water pump and thermostat were replaced at Berge Toyota (Mesa/Gilbert, AZ area). Camelback Toyota stated the vehicle was fixed. Vehicle overheated again the next day after being returned as repaired. XXX, at 93,034 miles, Camelback Toyota (RO XXX). Oil and filter change performed under good faith goodwill service, transmission fluid exchange completed. Overheating condition persisted. Vehicle continued to overheat through the summer and into September 2026. Current dealer now recommends head gasket replacement and states that if the head gasket does not resolve the overheating, the engine block is cracked and the engine will need replacement. Dealer describes the engine as “sucking air,” indicating combustion gases entering the cooling system and/or a compromised block-to-head seal. This failure sequence — persistent overheating, multiple failed repair attempts across two Toyota dealers, replacement of water pump, thermostat, and coolant bypass valve without resolution, and dealer conclusion pointing to a cracked engine block — matches the failure mode described in NHTSA Rec INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)", "vin_prefix": "4T1K61AK6LU" } ], "count": 3, "next_offset": 3, "observed_at_ms": 1790225015371, "offset": 0, "total": 273, "vehicle": { "make": "TOYOTA", "model": "CAMRY", "model_year": 2020 } } ``` ### Vehicle options - Capability: `recalls/vehicle_options` - Description: Discovery lists from the documented public products API: model years that have recalls or complaints, makes for a model year, or models for a model year and make.
