What is a Carchieve vehicle history report?

A Carchieve report is a complete safety and records check on any U.S. vehicle. Enter the 17-character VIN and you get the decoded vehicle identity and full specifications, every open safety recall, owner-reported complaints by system, official NHTSA crash-test ratings, and a buyer action plan, in one clean report and a downloadable PDF.

How is Carchieve different from a typical VIN lookup?

Carchieve doesn't just dump raw data. It authenticates the VIN, organizes every federal safety record into a buyer-ready dossier, scores the vehicle, and tells you exactly what to inspect, ask and verify before you pay, the way a careful mechanic would read the car.

How fast will I get my report?

Reports are generated in under a minute. As soon as your VIN is checked against the recall, complaint, ratings and identity databases, your report and PDF are ready to view and download.

Can I buy more than one report?

Yes. A single report is $24.99. If you're comparing several cars, the 3- and 5-report bundles save you money per report and the extra credits stay in your account until you use them.

What information do I need to run a report?

Only the 17-character Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). The VIN is on the lower-left corner of the windshield, the driver-side door jamb, and the vehicle title or registration.

Where does the data come from?

Every report is built from authoritative U.S. vehicle databases, including the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) recall, complaint and 5-Star safety-rating programs and the federal VIN product information catalog. Carchieve authenticates the VIN check digit so you know the identity is genuine.

Can I share the report with a seller or mechanic?

Yes. Every report includes a professionally formatted PDF you can download, print, or forward to a private seller, dealer, or mechanic to support your buying decision.

Detailed Breakdown of Each June 2026 Recall

26V371000: 2024 Ford Explorer Transmission Issue

Ford is recalling certain 2024 Explorer SUVs with a 2.3L engine and 10R60 automatic transmission. A software error in the powertrain control module (PCM) may cause an unintended reset while driving, potentially damaging the park system.

Safety Risk: If the park system fails, the vehicle may not engage "PARK," leading to unintended rollaway and increasing the risk of a crash or injury. Affected vehicles: 2024 Ford Explorer.

26V372000: 2019 Ford Mustang Instrument Cluster Failure

Ford is recalling certain 2019 Mustang vehicles due to a prior incorrect repair under recall 19V076. The instrument panel cluster (IPC) may fail to display critical information at startup, including vehicle speed and safety warnings, violating FMVSS 101.

Safety Risk: A blank instrument cluster reduces driver awareness, increasing the risk of a crash. Affected vehicles: 2019 Ford Mustang.

26V373000: 2019-2020 Ford F-150 Headlight Malfunction

Ford is recalling certain 2019-2020 F-150 trucks due to an incorrect repair under recall 20V097. When switching from "Autolamps" to "Headlamps On," the daytime running lights (DRLs) may remain overly bright instead of dimming to parking lights, violating FMVSS 108.

Safety Risk: Overly bright DRLs can reduce visibility for other drivers, increasing the risk of a collision. Affected vehicles: 2019 Ford F-150, 2020 Ford F-150.

26V374000: 2017 Ford Escape Power Window Hazard

Ford is recalling certain 2017 Escape SUVs due to an incorrect repair under recall 16V617. The power windows may exert excessive force when closing, failing to reverse automatically upon encountering an obstruction, violating FMVSS 118.

Safety Risk: A window that does not reverse as expected can pinch occupants, increasing the risk of injury. Affected vehicles: 2017 Ford Escape.

26V378000: 2014 Ford F-150 Transmission Control Module Failure

Ford is recalling certain 2014 F-150 trucks due to an incorrect repair under recall 24V444. A loss of signal between the transmission output shaft speed sensor and the powertrain control module (PCM) may cause an unexpected downshift into first gear.

Safety Risk: An abrupt downshift can lead to loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash. Affected vehicles: 2014 Ford F-150.

26V365000: Honda and Acura Rear Suspension Defect

Honda is recalling certain 2014-2020 Acura MDX, 2016-2022 Honda Pilot, 2017-2023 Honda Ridgeline, and 2019-2023 Honda Passport vehicles sold in salt-belt states. Corrosion may cause rear suspension components, such as the rear control arm, to fail.

Safety Risk: A failing rear suspension can impair vehicle handling and control, increasing the risk of a crash. Affected vehicles: 2014-2016 Acura MDX, 2016-2022 Honda Pilot, and 24 additional model years.

Frequently asked questions

How do I know if my car is part of the June 2026 recalls?

Enter your 17-digit VIN into the NHTSA recall lookup tool or a trusted VIN decoder like Carchieve’s. This will confirm whether your specific vehicle is affected by any June 2026 recalls or other open campaigns.

Are recall repairs really free?

Yes. Federal law requires automakers to cover the full cost of recall repairs at any franchised dealer, regardless of the vehicle’s age, mileage, or ownership history. You do not need to be the original owner to qualify.

What if the dealer says my recall repair is not covered?

If a dealer refuses to perform a recall repair for free, contact the automaker’s customer service line directly. Provide your VIN and the recall number (e.g., 26V371000) to escalate the issue. The NHTSA can also assist if the dealer is non-compliant.

Can I sell a car with an open recall?

Legally, yes, but it is risky. Many states require dealers to disclose open recalls, and private sellers may face liability if an accident occurs due to an unrepaired defect. Completing recall repairs before selling can increase the vehicle’s value and buyer trust.

How long do I have to get a recall fixed?

There is no expiration date for recall repairs, but delays can increase safety risks. Automakers are required to notify owners promptly, and repairs should be completed as soon as possible. Some recalls may affect resale value or insurance coverage if left unaddressed.

What should I do if my car is recalled but I no longer own it?

Update your contact information with the automaker or NHTSA to ensure future recall notices reach the current owner. You can also report the sale to the DMV to help track vehicle ownership changes.
