The latest data from the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) shows that Ford is the most recalled brand in 2023.
According to NHTSA, as of December 20, Ford issued 54 recalls involving 5,692,135 vehicles in 2023, more than any other automaker. This marks the third consecutive year that Ford has taken the lead in vehicle recalls in the United States.
When it comes to the number of affected vehicles, Ford has nearly twice the number as Kia in second place, with 3 million cars. Most of these recalls are for potential fire hazards due to brake fluid leaks. In terms of the total number of recalls, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles USA is second to Ford with 45 recalls affecting 2.7 million vehicles. BMW has 29 recalls, Mercedes-Benz has 27, and Nissan is also among the top 5 automakers with the highest number of recalls with 22 incidents.
Ford’s figures have decreased compared to last year’s 68 recalls affecting 8.5 million vehicles, but the American brand still stands out from other automakers in terms of both the number of recalls and the number of affected vehicles. According to Ford’s statement, the number of customers affected by safety-related recalls in 2023 is about 30% less than in 2022.
“We continuously strive to improve the quality of our vehicles and provide the best experience for our customers. Voluntary recalls are one of the ways we proactively protect customers from potential issues. Our initial quality is improving, and customers who own our latest vehicles are benefiting from that,” a Ford representative shared with Motor1.
It’s not surprising that Ford tops the list of recalls. The most impressive brand this year is Volkswagen, which ranked second after Ford in 2022, with 45 recalls affecting 1 million vehicles. This year, the German automaker was fortunate not to be at the top, with a total of only 18 recalls involving 332,700 vehicles, significantly lower than last year.
While Ford still leads in the number of recalls, Tesla has the largest recall campaign among automakers in 2023, involving the Autopilot driver assistance system and affecting 2,031,220 vehicles.
