Limits and source notes

  • NHTSA's flat file is row-grained by make, model, model year, and component. Fonteum dedupes distinct campaign counts by campaign number.
  • Potentially affected totals are read once per campaign in aggregate views to avoid counting the same campaign across repeated BMW 540I XDRIVE rows.
  • A make/model page is not a VIN-specific result. Use NHTSA's recall site for the vehicle-level check.

Recall questions

What does a BMW 540I XDRIVE recall row mean?

A NHTSA row is a public-record slice of a recall campaign, usually tied to a make, model, model year, and component. It is not an owner-specific finding. Fonteum groups rows into distinct campaigns when reporting campaign counts and affected-unit aggregates.

Why can row counts and campaign counts differ?

NHTSA's flat file can repeat the same campaign across multiple models, years, or component labels. Row counts show the published slices. Campaign counts dedupe by campaign number so the same administrative campaign is not counted repeatedly in the headline total.

How do I check a specific vehicle?

Use NHTSA's official recall site for a VIN-specific check. Fonteum pages show public make/model records and source dates, which are useful for research, but a VIN check is the right source for a specific vehicle's current recall status.

Integrated, with-data, and fresh-observation counts are separate. No platform-wide source-completeness count is published. Completeness is source-specific and must be evaluated against the named source's expected scope. State coverage is a separate jurisdiction measure.

Source authority is record-specific

Use the issuer named on the record.

Fonteum spans federal, state, and global public publishers. A source page or returned record identifies its issuer and dataset where that metadata is available. A platform registry count does not assign every page to one authority or establish loaded, fresh, or complete coverage.

Reproducible by design

Inspect the evidence each published figure actually supplies.

Source and date

Research pages expose the named public file and observation date where those fields are available. Source-file SHA-256 coverage is separate; facts do not currently link deterministically to signatures.

Available derivation

Studies with a retained release and committed derivation link the SQL or method used. Other studies state the evidence and reproduction limits they actually have.

Daily observations

Dated table row-count observations can detect local drift. They do not imply that an upstream publisher released or Fonteum ingested new data that day.
