The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) says owners can use a vehicle identification number to check whether a specific vehicle needs a recall repair.

The agency’s recall search checks an individual vehicle using its VIN.

NHTSA cautions that some recent recalls may not yet appear in search results.

That can happen while the agency is identifying which vehicles are affected.
