Reading these numbers
A high recall count is not the same as an unreliable vehicle. Recalls are safety defects the manufacturer reports and repairs free; a maker that files many of them is often being more diligent, not less. Older model years also accumulate recalls simply by existing longer.
What matters for a specific vehicle is whether its own VIN is covered by an open campaign. Check it on NHTSA's lookup or call 1-888-327-4236.
