VIN decoder and recall check
Buying a truck or checking your paperwork? Decode the VIN and see recalls in seconds.
How to use it
Enter the 17-character VIN from the door jamb, dash or title. The decoder uses NHTSA's public vehicle database. Recall results are for the make, model and year; confirm whether a specific truck’s recall was fixed with the manufacturer or at nhtsa.gov.
Questions carriers ask
Why doesn't my VIN decode fully?
Some heavy trucks and trailers have limited data in NHTSA's database. Adding the model year helps.
Is this free?
Yes. The data comes from NHTSA's free public tools.
