Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .

How this campaign compares
At 46 vehicles this is a small campaign: 79% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published are as large or larger. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2019 to 2020, so the oldest vehicles on it were 2 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Autocar vehicles have been recalled over the equipment 5 times before this, most recently in August 2020 as 20V496000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 20 other recalls published here, the newest being: 25V449000 (service brakes, air), 23V699000 (parking brake), 23V400000 (electrical system), 23V193000 (electrical system).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Autocar, LLC with NHTSA on November 26, 2021 as campaign 21V930000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
