Most recall records read alike until you look at those two. The parkIt flag means the manufacturer is telling owners to stop driving the vehicle, and an FDA Class I classification means a reasonable probability of serious harm — both are the difference between a note and an action. Filter on them rather than reading summaries and judging.
A hosted server over three federal safety datasets: NHTSA vehicle recall campaigns, FDA recall enforcement reports for drugs, food and devices, and the CFPB consumer complaint database. Three websites' worth of searching behind one connection.
- `safety_search_vehicle_recalls` takes `make`, `modelYear`, `component` and `limit` (default 10), returning the campaign number, summary, consequence, remedy, units affected and the parkIt flag that marks a stop-driving advisory
- `safety_search_fda_recalls` takes a `productType` of `drugs`, `food` or `devices`, a free-text `searchTerm` and a `classification` — Class I is the most serious — returning the recalling firm, reason and distribution pattern
- `safety_search_consumer_complaints` takes a `searchTerm`, `product`, `company` and `state`, returning the issue, date received and the company's response status
- Every result carries the identifier its agency uses, so a finding can be traced back to the source record
