How this campaign compares
At 902 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 57% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2023 to 2026, so the oldest vehicles on it were 3 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Micro Bird vehicles have been recalled over the engine and engine cooling 2 times before this, most recently in September 2024 as 24V707000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 7 other recalls published here, the newest being: 26V149000 (equipment adaptive/mobility), 25V840000 (electrical system), 25V770000 (equipment adaptive/mobility), 25V751000 (equipment adaptive/mobility).
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.
