LemonProof

Free tool

Used car recall & known-issues checker

Pick a make, model and year to see open NHTSA safety recalls and the known problems that model is reported for. Free, no sign-up. It covers the model in general — for your exact car, the LemonProof report goes further.

How this works

Recalls come from the public NHTSA database (United States) and are specific to the model year you pick. The "known issues" summary is LemonProof's own, drawn from our model guides. We currently cover 30 models across 13 makes — and we only show what we actually have data for. For official recalls outside the U.S., check your local authority and the vehicle's history report.
