VIN level recall tracking
Monitor safety events tied to individual vehicles
Recall & Safety Event Monitoring
Monitor active recalls and safety notices at the VIN-level using VinAudit automotive data APIs. Identify affected vehicles early, reduce risk, and support compliance before issues escalate.
The Challenge
Clients need to identify vehicle inventory with open and unresolved recalls. Without continuous monitoring, safety issues can go unnoticed as inventory changes or new recalls are issued. This increases compliance risk, operational delays, and potential liability.
How It Works
From VIN-level safety data to compliance actions
Access VIN-level recall data
Collect recall and safety event data using VIN Recalls API and Vehicle History API.
Monitor safety status changes
Track updates in recall status, applicability, and resolution across vehicles.
Apply compliance and risk actions
Identify affected inventory and take remediation, disclosure, and operational actions.
