I have version 2 3 and it does not work at all No connection Pat 9995
I keep getting errors whenever I tryout to update my profile I also noticed that version 2 17 is listed as the latest version but I got version 2 13 when I downloaded it from the App Store Not sure what s going on there Doesn t Work reh.ga
Just downloaded December of 17 Not working at all iPhone 6s with up to date OS Very disappointed Would have liked to add my vehicles to the auto update for recalls No such luck Error after error Mmp2112
Had previously downloaded this app and it crashed on every startup irony of crashing not lost on me Just tried it again and it seems to work fine now So far so much better AjaxPhil
I cannot believe that anyone let alone the government would not be ashamed of releasing such a buggy app Please fix the bugs Horrible app very buggy univhack
I have tried numerous times to add my vehicle but the app continues to tell me it has domain issues You have to pay to download and the whole point of me buying this app was to circumvent the need for the website Since you can t add and save your car and have to manually search by VIN scanning doesn t work you either carry around your number or save the info on a computer Pointless app Can not add vehicle AjDavisJunior
Recall by VIN number not working Recall by VIN number not working MrFranc
Trying to find safest small cars for 2016 before I go car shopping None of the functionality in app or on website works properly Don t waste your time I d give this ZERO stars if I could DOES NOT WORK Ebrathedebra
Every time I scan a VIN if the camera actually works to scan the VIN the app puts an I in front of the VIN and then the app says the VIN is invalid Does not work as expected Poor at best Basketball4739
It is currently pushing out notifications every few seconds for every type of car not the one I have entered as having VERY ANNOYING and useless Do not recommend Too many notifications Kyd42
I have only used this app a few times but it does not perform as expected The camera will not scan the VIN to add a new vehicle this needs to be done manually I do not see how to easily click on my vehicles to search for a recall I have to go through another menu to and re type the VIN to check for recalls Needs improvement Bh2o!!!!!!
All I have been able to do is just add a vehicle however I can not file a complaint as the app crashes Recalls do not show up and VIN does not carry over to other portions of the app Will keep it in the hopes it is fixed as it can be very useful Buggy and useless Shrek98034
Doesnt open App doesn t wotk Larry Gen
This app is great Perhaps the problems noted by previous reviewers have been fixed because this app works fine for me In the app s settings it was easy to save 3 vehicles to my profile I also checked the recalls for each vehicle and found the information to be accurate Fyi the app s info for recall notifications explains that your notifications will currently include all vehicle models made by your manufacturer in the same year as your vehicle A previous review included this issue as a negative However it also notes that work is currently in progress to improve the app to limit notifications to your specific model I have no problem with getting extra notifications for other vehicles made by my manufacturer in the same year just to make sure I m covered until this enhancement occurs Thanks for providing this app and continuing to work to make it better Useful app JPDMyers
Sounded like a good idea but the app will not even except the Vin number or my personal information in the set up Won t save VIN or personal info Mac logo
Will not load recalls Deleted app Does not work Humana1
Useless app Will not accept any VIN Displays Invalid VIN whether you scan or enter manually Don t waste your time with this app Useless App Pete 4357
Simple app Thanks for making our vehicles safer Fastest way to be alerted of a recall StellaDelia
Downloaded it and it won t load the recall list Just keeps saying loading Won t load recall list Greeneyesm
Gives data on vehicles that have a 5 star rating but I would like to be able to see all ratings Also it gives opportunity to save models of interest but no way to recall info I would like to also filter searches by type such as SUV sedan etc this app could be invaluable to shoppers but when in showroom looking at a specific model you need to know more than just 5 star or not If it is not listed you don t know if the database is inadequate or if the model is inferior You can tell if it is untested Good to a point GWD4
Easy to check for auto recalls Needs work to only send notifications for the vehicle in my profile Had to turn off the pushes as it was giving me notices for ford trucks when I only have a Ford Taurus in my profile Safecar 507 Okie
I was able to search for recalls and create a profile for push notifications Using a single control for make and including cars trucks school buses travel trailers RVs etc is irritating Provide drill down via a category selector Recall lookup works Clunky Squishyray
I have an 08 Dodge Caliber and it is not listed This doesn t include my car ScottM8324
I can t set up the profile for my vehicle to get push notifications Tried several times and it just keeps saying could not set up try again Also app needs room for multiple vehicles since I have more than one I guess this is OK if you just want to track them manually but with the rash of recalls these days I d like it to tell me just like any other ordinary app does and two of my vehicles are not even listed It would be nice if they were listed and said no recalls like the web does In the profile I could not find the capture button in scan your vin so I had to enter it in by hand What s up with that Profile RLaD12

Good App finds recalls for a specific vehicle Bad Cannot take a photo of the VIN barcode no shutter button Bad Cannot edit VIN if entered incorrectly Must delete vehicle and start over Really bad Inane do not text while driving message that must be cleared every time the program is launched Idiots who text while driving will not stop because of this message and all it does is frustrate users with working brain cells who already know when not to text Some good some bad iphonereviewer#2
That s what I was looking for This is so good for all drivers Nepalko choro
Good to know there s an app that keeps track of all your vehicle s safety standards especially when you re looking for a new car and that s too NHTSA approved Go for SaferCar samfoster1406
Nice to look for info on cars but would like a little more details on complaints Also need to be able to either interface to email for feedback and not have to visit another site to get more information needs work routerdude
This was a waste because my 2009 Ford Edge was not listed Also no way to save a vehicle to get current recalls without having to re enter info Not All Models Are Included Jayne 05751
Great for anyone shopping for a new car You can look up government safety ratings and see which cars are the safest Also provides updates on recall information for any vehicle that I own Good stuff Useful car buying app Chan Lieu

Recall News Headlines doesnt even note the latest Takata airbag debacle even 2 days after the news has broken publicly Ive populated the app with my personal car info yet it shows recall data for car models unrelated to my car If I follow a link to More Info I get a blank page This is genius Provide Feedback link only brings up phone number and email addresses it doesnt even allow one to submit feedback from within the app or even a link to a web form As with many wellintentioned government safety initiatives this one falls well short of serving citizens with uptodate useful actionable info Not Very Useful
