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 KIA FORTE KOUP 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 KIA FORTE KOUP 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.
