Unverified real report

Each record combines rows concerning the same complaint and vehicle, including records where the source lists several components.

Find the relevant source record

These entries are complaints: reports of what someone observed. An investigation is an authority’s review; a recall is a separate campaign. An ODI complaint number is not a recall number or an official finding.

Match the make, model, year and vehicle specification to the linked record. NHTSA operates within the United States system; a matching model name does not establish applicability to a European version. Check the market and manufacturer’s guidance for your vehicle. These counts describe the collection, without the number of vehicles exposed, so they cannot establish fault frequency or risk.

Understand complaints, investigations and recalls at NHTSA · Keep codes and observable data in context

What to observe before drawing conclusions

Keep the exact code and any status shown, the symptoms, and the circumstances in which they appeared. If live readings are available, note their names, values and units. Missing information is not zero and a reading does not by itself confirm a cause.

Use the existing guide to keep the context

Smart Control OBD2 reads available codes and parameters through a compatible adapter. It helps you observe and retain context; it does not automatically identify the cause of a fault. Coverage depends on the vehicle, control unit and adapter.
